At today’s Interactive Midweek Service, Pastor Femi Paul taught on “Satisfied with the Goodness of God”, unveiling the abundant blessing reserved for those who draw near and choose to dwell in God’s presence. From Psalm 65:4–5, PFP reminded us that the person God chooses and brings close is blessed because God satisfies His own with the BEST. According to the Olive Tree Strong’s Dictionary, “goodness” (ṭûḇ) is in the superlative: it means the best, good things, prosperity, and joy. God’s house is not ordinary; it is the place where His goodness overflows.

PFP then highlighted that those who dwell in God’s house (Psalm 23:6) experience consistent mercy, protection, and satisfaction. He then posed a question: “Are you dwelling or merely visiting?” Many dwell in the world and only “visit” God occasionally, yet dwelling requires commitment, consistency, and prioritising God above all else. As Psalm 122:1 declares, there is joy in going to God’s house, and Psalm 36:7–8 reveals that those who take refuge in Him are “abundantly satisfied” and drink from the river of His pleasures. The message was clear: when you dwell, God satisfies you with the fullness of His house, His goodness, joy, prosperity, and every blessing that makes life whole.

Prayer: Lord, I choose to dwell in Your presence. Satisfy me with the goodness of Your house. Let Your mercy, joy, and prosperity flow into every area of my life as I remain rooted in You. Amen.
