Bible Study: God’s Good Pleasure

Do you ever feel like God is mad for having to save you again or it was a burden for Him to give you salvation and He is not happy giving it? Well, let’s take a look at what the truth is!

Problem: You don’t believe God is good.
Solution: Fix your eyes on the character of God:

• Check the adoption papers (The Bible)
  The Bible’s truths and promises are vastly more true than what you feel or believe
• Rivet your thoughts and your imagination onto the Truth
  Truth is a person! (John 14:6)

You are an adopted child and heir:
Romans 8:15
Galatians 4:4-7

God takes pleasure in saving you and in giving your inheritance to you:
Ephesians 1:5
Matthew 7:11
Romans 8:32
“What can the Lord deny us after giving us Jesus? If we need all things in Heaven and earth, He will grant them to us: for if there had been a limit anywhere, He would have kept back His own Son.” – Charles Spurgeon
Luke 12:32
Hebrews 6:16-20
