Expect Good Things from God

 God has good plans for me today. God has a good plan for you today.

A preacher was praying one day, when God spoke to him.

“Tell the people to expect good things from God. Tell them something good is going to happen today.”

God is for you and not against you.

What, then, shall we say in response to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us? 

He who did not spare his own Son, but gave him up for us all—how will he not also, along with him, graciously give us all things?

Who will bring any charge against those whom God has chosen? It is God who justifies.
Ro 8:31–33 NIV


Some will doubt if God loves them. They may have grown up in a religious tradition which teaches that God chose some to be saved and others to condemn. Your fate is already determined

But Jesus died for you. Jesus died to save us from our sins, to rescue us from our guilt and punishment.

But does this mean that God loves everyone? What if you are not one of the chosen ones?

For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. Jn 3:16 NIV

Who did God love? The world. Who does that include? Everyone in the world.

Who did Jesus die to save?

He is the atoning sacrifice for our sins, and not only for ours but also for the sins of the whole world.
1 Jn 2:2 NIV

Jesus died for you.


What, then, shall we say in response to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us?

He who did not spare his own Son, but gave him up for us all—how will he not also, along with him, graciously give us all things?
Ro 8:31–32 NIV


God is for you, not against you.

If you have problems today, God wants to help you.

If you are sick, God wants to heal you.

The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.
Jn 10:10 NIV

God is not making you sick. He wants you to be well.

God does not want you to be anxious or confused. He wants you to be full of hope and clear thinking.
You can pray to God, read your bible and say with confidence.

“God loves me. Something good is going to happen to me today.”
