God is good all the time, and all the time, God is good!
“God is good!” whether He has blessed us or not.“God is good!” is the good times and in the bad times.
“God is good!” whether His favor rests on our church or not.
Main Passage: Psalm 100
God is worthy to be praised in the good times and the bad times.
I.e. On June 13, Matt Harvie was in a coma....God is good!
I.e. On June 13, Jessly Kay Howes was born...God is good!
Our faith is not based on our circumstances but on who God is.
"On the mountain of the LORD it will be provided." Genesis 22:14b
We need to gaze at God and glance at our circumstances.
God is so much bigger than our circumstances.
Are we trusting in Him? Or are we trusting in our circumstances?
"One thing I ask of the LORD, this is what I seek: that I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, to gaze upon the beauty of the LORD and to seek him in his temple." Psalm 27:4
Too many Christians are trusting in their circumstances.
I.e. the next President of the United States
I.e. the Dow Jones
“Some trust in chariots and some in horses, but we trust in the NAME of the LORD our God.” Psalm 20:7
The names of God tell us who He is…His character.

Sorry I missed you singing since I came to the early service. It was a wonderful service the music and your message went straight to my heart and stirred up God's spirit within me. It is so good to look around and see so many people filling the room, hard to believe all that in just 4 short years. I'm sure they have been busy ones for you and Jennifer but just look what God has helped you to shape and grow. Your message was put to the test due to a tragic accident that happened in my daughter-in-law's family, I passed on your message to them for support and comfort and to bolster their faith. Thanks be to God for you and the wonderful way you are.
"Ewe" know who.
Kathy,
Thank you so much for all your encouraging words. I am sorry to hear about your daughter-in-law's family. I pray they will trust in the Name of the Lord and feel God's presence and love.
God is good!
Johnny
