When evil people affect our lives, we often wonder how GOD could permit such a thing? Humanly thinking, that question would make sense. And when this happens, we may never understand the reason wickedness was allowed to touch us. However, the LORD gives several assurances in His Word to sustain us during those times!
First, GOD will remind us that His ways and thoughts are higher than ours (ref. Isaiah 55:9)!
As we see in Romans 8:28, our Heavenly FATHER promises us that He will work all things together for the good of all believers!
Then in our Scripture for today, He provides insight into His character: Psalm 100:5 “For the Lord is good; His mercy is everlasting, and His truth endures to all generations.”
We live in a fallen world, and all of us will be affected sometimes by evil people! Knowing GOD’S Word and understanding His character gives us hope and will give us endurance to persevere during those times.
