In a world where “good” can be as subjective as asking if the food was tasty or if someone was well behaved, it’s crucial to understand true goodness from a biblical perspective. The Bible challenges us to see goodness not just as a moral nicety but as a powerful weapon against evil.

I have learned that God often requires us to wait upon Him and His timing. Sometimes, I’ve become impatient and tried to make the Lord’s plans happen for me, which didn’t end well. The Lord never intended us to live apart from Him.

In 2 Chronicles 20, we find the story of King Jehoshaphat facing a challenge. Multiple armies were closing in on his nation, threatening to destroy his people. In his desperation, he turned to God, the only one who could help.
