THE PRODUCER OF A "GOOD" PERSON IS.....

                                          

THE HOLY SPIRIT PRODUCES THE FRUIT OF GOODNESS

 “…The fruit of the Spirit is love, JOY, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, Meekness, temperance…” (Galatians 5:22-23 KJV).

*

“…[ONE OF] the fruit of the Spirit is … GOODNESS…” (Galatians 5:22-23 KJV). GOODNESS is another beneficial side effect of the indwelling  Holy Spirit. “…GOD IS SPIRIT…” (John 4:24 KJV). “…God’s Spirit dwells in you?...” (1 Corinthians 3:16 NASB). “…The fruit of the Spirit is … goodness…” (Galatians 5:22-23 KJV).

The FRUIT of GOODNESS works in the believer through the indwelling Holy Spirit and transforms their character. “…God who works in you …” (Philippians 2:13 NIV “…Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a NEW creature: …” (2 Corinthians 5:17 KJV). “… we all … are changed into the same image [of Christ] …” (2 Corinthians 3:18 KJV). “...Be… imitators of [Jesus]…” (Hebrews 12:14; Ephesians 5:1 ASV). “…In this world we are like Jesus…” (1 John 4:17 NIV).  “…by the GRACE of God I am what I am…” (1 Corinthians 15:10 NIV). I AM GOOD. MY FATHER'S INDWELLING HOLY SPIRIT PRODUCES "GOODNESS" IN ME. THEN HE DISPLAYS THE POWER OF HIS GOODNESS "THROUGH" ME. 

“…all things are BECOME NEW …;[I AM GOOD]…” (2 Corinthians 5:17 KJV). “…The fruit of the Spirit is love, JOY, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, Meekness, temperance…” (Galatians 5:22-23 KJV). I AM GOOD, BECAUSE, “…God’s Spirit dwells in [ME]...” (1 Corinthians 3:16 NASB).

God’s GOODNESS is REVEALED IN his RIGHTEOUS character in action through his MANY acts of kindness. “…GOOD and upright is the Lord…” (Psalm 25:8 KJV).

 In the book of Exodus, Moses asked God to SHOW him his glory. God displayed ALL his GOODNESS in front of him or in his presence. “…Moses said, “…show me your glory.” …The Lord said, “I will cause all my GOODNESS to pass in front of you, and I will proclaim my name, the Lord, in your presence. … …” (Exodus 33:16-23 NIV).

God’ caused “…all …[his]… GOODNESS to pass in front of …[Moses]…and …[he]… proclaim[ed]… [his]… name, the Lord, in …[moses’]… presence. … …” (Exodus 33:16-23 NIV).

God is GOOD or GOODNESS. “…The lord is GOOD…” (Psalm 100:5 KJV). “…Oh how great is thy GOODNESS… (Psalm 31:19 KJV). “…He is GOOD…” (Psalm 107:1 KJV). “..The lord is GOOD…” (Nahum 1:7 KJV). “…GOOD and upright is the Lord…” (Psalm 25:8 KJV). “…For thou, Lord, is GOOD…” (Psalm 86:5 KJV). “…O give thanks unto the LORD; for he is GOOD… ” (Psalms 106:1 KJV).  “…O give thanks unto the LORD; for he is GOOD; for his mercy endureth for ever” (1 Chronicles…” 16:34 KJV).

The indwelling Holy Spirit is TOTALLY responsible for the GOODNESS produced, displayed, and bestowed in the covenant relationship with the believer. “…I will show My GLORY…” (Isaiah 49:3 NASB). 

I will REVEAL who I AM. I will CONFIRM my WORD to you. And I will ESTABLISH myself as the Lord, YOUR GOD. "... I WILL SHOW MY GLORY (PRESENCE)…" (ISAIAH 49:3 NASB).

The indwelling Holy Spirit "PRODUCES" goodness  "IN" you, behaves good toward you, brings goodness into your life, supplies goodness TO you, and displays the fruit of goodness THROUGH you.

God’s GOODNESS is aimed at benefiting the believer and NOT himself. “…My Servant …In Whom I will show My GLORY…” (Isaiah 49:3 NASB).  

God’s GOODNESS is expressed and revealed to the believer through the indwelling Holy Spirit. God's GOODNESS is witnessed through the many acts of God's GRACE, caregiving, comforts, corrections, directions, in nature, through revelation knowledge, and through his presence. “Thou are GOOD and doest GOOD…” (Psalm 119:68 KJV). “…I am the Lord, I change NOT…” (Malachi 3:6 KJV). “…Great is his love toward us, and the faithfulness of the LORD endures forever. Praise the LORD” (Psalms 117:2 KJV). “…O give thanks unto the LORD; for he is GOOD; for his mercy endureth for ever” (1 Chronicles…” 16:34 KJV).

 “ALL” acts or gifts of true GOODNESS come from God. “….every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, cometh down from the Father of lights…..” (James 1:17 KJV).

God’s HOLY nature is characterized by GOODNESS and affects EVERYTHING he SPEAKS and DOES. “… Thou are GOOD and doest GOOD…” (Psalm 119:68 KJV).  “…The lord is GOOD…” (Psalm 100:5 KJV). “…Oh how great is thy GOODNESS… (Psalm 31:19 KJV). “…He is GOOD…” (Psalm 107:1 KJV). “..The lord is GOOD…” (Nahum 1:7 KJV). “…For thou, Lord, is GOOD…” (Psalm 86:5 KJV). “…O give thanks unto the LORD; for he is GOOD… ” (Psalms 106:1 KJV).

God is GOOD and his indwelling Holy Spirit enables the believer to be display the fruit of "HIS" GOODNESS. “…[One of]...the fruit of the Spirit is … goodness…” (Galatians 5:22-23 KJV).

When God’s GOODNESS is truly DISPLAYED it GLORIFIES HIM (reveals his presence upon earth). “… Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven…” (Matthew 5:16 KJV).

goodness IS FROM GOD. “…He is GOOD…” (Psalm 107:1 KJV “…And Jesus said unto him … there is none good but one, that is, God…” (Mark 10:18 KJV). “…The lord is GOOD…” (Psalm 100:5 KJV).). “..The lord is GOOD…” (Nahum 1:7 KJV).

God demonstrated his goodness FIRST “…Your great goodness which You gave them…” (Nehemiah 9:35 NASB). “…you showered your goodness on them…” (Nehemiah 9:35 NLT). . “We love, because he first loved us” (1 John 4:19 ASV). “…We give [God]...only what [he] … first gave us! …” (1 Chronicles 29:14 NLT).

GOD’s goodness is expressed in his presence. he connects, relates, fills, and imparts his goodness to the believer. “… In thy presence is fulness of joy (goodness)… “ (Psalms 16:11 KJV).“…Renew my life with your goodness…” (Psalms 119:40 NASB). “… My people will be satisfied with My goodness,” declares the Lord…” (Jeremiah 31:14 NASB). “…[One of]...the fruit of the Spirit is … GOODNESS…” (Galatians 5:22-23 KJV). “…May he work in us (GOODNESS) … through Jesus Christ…” (Hebrews 13:20-21 NIV).

GOD IMPARTS goodness. “…God has sent forth the Spirit of His Son “INTO” [YOUR HEART]…” (Galatians 4:6 NASB). “…GOD IS SPIRIT…” (John 4:24 KJV). “…[One of]… the fruit of the Spirit is goodness…” (Galatians 5:22-23 KJV). “…The Lord (God, the WORD) is that Spirit…” (2 Corinthians 3:17 KJV).  “…The Holy Spirit gives birth to SPIRITUAL [GOODNESS]…” (John 3:6 NLT). “…It is the SPIRIT who gives [GOODNESS] …” (John 6:63 NASB). “… May he work (by producing) in us (his goodness) … through Jesus Christ…” (Hebrews 13:20-21 NIV).

GOD EMPOWERS goodness. ^“…That great Shepherd of the sheep, EQUIP (SUPPLY) you with everything good [the Spirit of goodness]… for doing his will … through Jesus Christ…” (Hebrews 13:20-21 NIV). “…God is Spirit…” (John 4:24 KJV). “…It is God which worketh IN YOU both to will (produce goodness) and to do (good deeds) …” (Philippians 2:13 KJV).

God supplies goodness. “…God shall supply ALL YOUR NEED according to his riches in glory BY Christ Jesus…” (Philippians 4:19 KJV). “….The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want. ….” (PSALM 23:1-3 NLT). “…God will generously PROVIDE all … [the goodness] … you need…” (2 Corinthians 9:8 NLT). “…he … filleth the hungry soul with goodness…” (Psalms 107:9 KJV).

GOD’S goodness NEVER CHANGES OR FAILS. “…I am the Lord, I change NOT…” (Malachi 3:6 KJV).  “…Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever” (Hebrews 13:8 NIV). “…Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life…” (Psalms 23:6 KJV).

GOD’S goodness CAN’T BE SEPARATED FROM YOU, EVEN IF YOU SEPARATE FROM HIM. “…I AM WITH YOU ALWAYS, to the very end…"(Matthew 28:20 NIV). “…I “IN” YOU…” (John 15:4 KJV). “…If … [you] … are unfaithful, he remains faithful…” (2 Timothy 2:13 NLT). “… Behold ... the GOODNESS … of God … toward thee … [will NOT separate] … if thou continue in his GOODNESS…” (Romans 11:22 KJV).

GOD’S goodness LASTS FOREVER. “…The goodness of God endureth continually….” (Psalms 52:1 KJV).

GOD’S goodness IS SO POWERFUL IT IS A “SIGN” THAT YOU ARE HIS DISCIPLES AND THAT YOU “TRULY” KNOW HIM. “…Ye shall know them by their fruits…” (Matthew 7:16 KJV). Therefore, "… bear much fruit, and … PROVE to be … [God’s] … disciples” (John 15:8 NIV). “… [God] … sent the people away … glad and merry in heart for the goodness that the Lord had shewed … his people…” (2 Chronicles 7:10 KJV).

GOD’S goodness is a fruitful side effect of the ingested holy spirit. “…[One of]… the fruit of the Spirit is … goodness…” (Galatians 5:22-23 KJV).

God’s goodness is understood by faith. “… BY FAITH we UNDERSTAND (become aware of) …that what we now see (GOD'S GOODNESS) did not come from anything that can be seen (such as the indwelling Holy Spirit…” (Hebrews 11 NLT). “…The fruit of the (invisible) Spirit is … goodness…” (Galatians 5:22-23 KJV). “…The invisible [Spirit]…from the creation of the world is …clearly seen, being understood by the things that are MADE  (produced GOODNESS)…” (Romans 1:20 KJV). “… All things are … [MADE] … NEW…” (2 Corinthians 5:17 KJV). “…Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is …[MADE] … a NEW creature …” (2 Corinthians 5:17 KJV). “… BY FAITH we UNDERSTAND (become aware of God's GOODNESS) …” (Hebrews 11 NLT). “…Ye shall know them by their fruits…” (Matthew 7:16 KJV). “…The fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, GOODNESS, faith, Meekness, temperance…” (Galatians 5:22-23 KJV).

GOD”S goodness IS EXPERIENCED BY TRUST. “…Trust in the Lord with all thine heart...” (Proverbs 3:5-6 KJV). “… lean not unto thine own understanding…” (Proverbs 3:5-6 KJV).  “… In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths…” (Proverbs 3:5-6 KJV). “…The LORD will accomplish (take care of)…that which concerns [you]…” (John 14:31 NASB). “…The steps of a good man are ordered (directed) by the Lord: …” (Psalms 37:23 KJV). “… How great is thy goodness …for them that trust in thee before the sons of men!” (Psalms 31:19 KJV).

God’s goodness is experienced through surrender.  “… I came down from heaven, not to do mine own will, but the will of him that sent me” (John 6:38 KJV).  “….the Son of Man came not to be served but to serve others …" (Matthew 20:28). “…I must be about my Father's business?” (Luke 2:49 KJV). “…I desire to do your will, my God…” (Psalms 40:8 KJV). “…I have come to do your will, my God…'" (Hebrews 10:7, 9 KJV). “…I do nothing of myself…” (John 8:28 KJV). “…the Father that dwelleth in me, he doeth the works…” (John 14:10 KJV). “…I wanted you to help because you were willing, not because you were forced…” (Philemon 1:14 NLT). “…Surrender your … power…” (Jeremiah 4:4  NLT). “…so that your goodness would … be … of your own free will…” (Philemon 1:14 KJV).

GOD’S goodness IS OFTEN “NOT” BELIEVED. “…Take heed, brethren, lest there be in any one of you an evil heart of unbelief, in departing from the living God” (Hebrews 3:12 KJV). “…See to it, brothers and sisters, that none of you has a sinful, unbelieving heart that turns away from the living God…” (Hebrews 3:12 NIV). The Centurion said to Jesus “…I DO believe; HELP me overcome my unbelief!” (Mark 9:24 NIV). “… you were full of darkness, but now you have light from the Lord. So live as people of light! For this light within you produces only what is GOOD...” (Romans 5:8-9 KJV). “... only believe…” (Mark 5:36 KJV).  

GOD’S goodness IS something chosen or RECEIVED often in the presence of doubt, misunderstanding, or man’s lack of knowledge. “…RECEIVE with meekness the engrafted word …” (James 1:21 KJV). "…Truly I tell you, if anyone … DOES NOT DOUBT in their heart but believes … it will be done for them….” (MARKS 11:23 NIV). “… lean not unto thine own understanding …” (Proverbs 3:5-6 KJV). “…My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge…” (Hosea 4:6 NIV). “…God is Spirit …” (John 4:24 KJV). “…ANYONE WHO COMES TO HIM MUST BELIEVE THAT HE (and his GOODNESS) EXISTS…” (Hebrews 11:6 NIV). “…Submit yourselves to the Lord…” (2 Chronicles 30:8 NLT). “…REPENT … and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit (which includes GOODNESS)….” (Acts 2:38 NASB). “…RECEIVE with meekness …” (James 1:21 KJV).

 God’s goodness makes the believers rejoice . “… Let thy saints rejoice in goodness…” (2 Chronicles 6:41 KJV).

god has given you his goodness through his holy spirit. “…God has sent forth the Spirit of His Son “INTO” OUR HEARTS…” (Galatians 4:6 NASB). 

God’s goodness is a characteristic of his holy spirit. “…God is spirit…” (John 4:24 KJV). “…The fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, Meekness, temperance…” (Galatians 5:22-23 KJV).

God’s goodness continues forever. “…The goodness of God endureth continually….” (Psalms 52:1 KJV).

God supplies you with so much goodness, you always have enough to share it with others. “…God shall supply ALL YOUR NEED …” (Philippians 4:19 KJV). “…God will generously PROVIDE all … [the goodness] … you need…” (2 Corinthians 9:8 NLT). “…my cup runneth over … [with goodness] …” (Psalms 23:5 KJV). “…you can show others the goodness of God, for he called you out of the darkness into his wonderful light…” (1 Peter 2:9 NLT).

God’s goodness is displayed as spiritual fruit in your life and others can see it. “…Ye shall know them by their fruits…” (Matthew 7:16 KJV). “…The fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, Meekness, temperance…” (Galatians 5:22-23 KJV).

If you do NOT have the indwelling Holy Spirit, you are NOT one of God’s children and the fruit, not your religious works, is the evidence. “…That’s why those who are still under the control of their sinful nature can never please God. But you are not controlled by your sinful nature. You are controlled by the Spirit if you have the Spirit of God living in you. (And remember that those who do not have the Spirit of Christ living in them do not belong to him at all.)….” (Romans 8:8-11 NLT).

^“…It is God who works in you …” (Philippians 2:13 NIV). “…The Holy Spirit produces this kind of fruit in our lives: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control…” (Galatians 5 NLT). 

AN TRUE ACT OF GOODNESS IS PRODUCED AND DISPLAYED BY THE INDWELLING HOLY SPIRIT "THROUGH" YOU. THE HOLY SPIRIT DOES THE WORK OF SPIRITUAL GOODNESS AND DESERVES ALL THE GLORY!
