Psalm 78:41 “Yea, they turned back and tempted God, and limited the Holy One of Israel”

Are you limiting God?

Psalm 78 gives a summary of Israel’s history from the calling out from Egypt to the setting up of David’s Kingdom.

Throughout the passage the goodness of God is magnified as well as the forgetfulness of His people. One of the results of forgetting God’s goodness is that within our hearts we “limit God”.

“Limiting God” in this verse speaks of limiting our view of God, coming to the conclusion that God is not up the challenge. How does this happen?  When we ignore the goodness of God.  

Have you gotten so consumed with the demands of this week or the challenges of life that you have forgotten the goodness of God. Have you stopped dwelling on all the ways in which His

 goodness has played out in your life? 

I have two challenges for you today:

#1 - Take time today to dwell upon the goodness of God revealed throughout His word and throughout your life.

#2 – Share with at least three different people (one on one) how God has been good to you.

Remember the saying: “God is good all the time – All the time God is good!”
