God Is Working for Your Good

BY RICK WARREN — FEBRUARY 10, 2023
FROM LIVING IN THE GOODNESS OF GOD

“Surely your goodness and unfailing love will pursue me all the days of my life.”

Psalm 23:6 (NLT)

Even in the middle of your hurts, habits, and hang-ups, God is watching over you.

King David says to God in Psalm 23:6, “Surely your goodness and unfailing love will pursue me all the days of my life” (NLT).

When David says, “Surely your goodness will pursue me,” he’s not saying, “Surely only good things are going to happen to me.” David knew as well as anyone that bad things happen to good people. He had been abused and treated unfairly and was still a man who followed God’s heart. But he had also sinned terribly against people who had done no wrong to him.

David’s point is that, no matter how bad, evil, or difficult something seems—and no matter how much we mess things up—God will work it out for good. His goodness is pursuing us, no matter which way we turn.

It’s one of God’s great promises that he’s given to believers: “And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose” (Romans 8:28 NIV). 

In everything that happens to us, God is working for our good—if we love God and are following his plans. This verse does not say that all things are good. But if you’re a believer, all things are working together for God’s plan and purposes, which are always good.

That means there is no difficulty, dilemma, defeat, or disaster in the life of a believer that God can’t ultimately turn toward his purpose.

When you believe that, it changes how you view everything in your life—your relationships with God and other people, your past, your future, and whatever you are facing today. As you trust in God’s good work in your life, you will be able to face even your toughest challenges with confidence.

Talk It Over

  • What difficulty, dilemma, or defeat have you been looking at as impossible to face?
  • In light of Romans 8:28, how do you think God wants you to respond to that situation?
  • Think of a time when God turned something bad in your life into something good. Why is it important to remember God’s faithfulness to you in the past?
