Easy-To-Read Version:
“Everything good comes from God. Every perfect gift is from him. These good gifts come down from the Father who made all the lights in the sky. But God never changes like the shadows from those lights. He is always the same.”
(James 1:17)
Christian Standard Bible:
“Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights, who does not change like shifting shadows.”
Amplified Bible:
“Every good thing given and every perfect gift is from above; it comes down from the Father of lights [the Creator and Sustainer of the heavens], in whom there is no variation [no rising or setting] or shadow cast by His turning [for He is perfect and never changes].”
Holman Christian Standard Bible:
“Every good thing given and every perfect gift is from above; it comes down from the Father of lights [the Creator and Sustainer of the heavens], in whom there is no variation [no rising or setting] or shadow cast by His turning [for He is perfect and never changes].”
Beloved, God does good all the time. Even when it looks bad, it’s not. When you are faced with unpleasant situations as it is written in Isaiah 43:2, He’s working in you, making you stronger. In that trial, troubles, turbulence, etc, God is still good and will work out His goodness in you.
The sun for example does not shine on all parts of the earth at the same time,nor in the same manner all the year. It rises and sets, thereby produces the changes of the seasons. But God is not indeed like the sun, He made the sun and other heavenly bodies. With God, there is no variable ness, no changes, no shadow of turning. He is always the same, all seasons of the year, no changes in His character, His mode of being, His purposes and plans. What He was millions of ages before the worlds were made, He is now. What He is now, He will be countless millions of ages. God is the same and He will deliver to you every good and perfect gifts He has for you; gifts of normalcy, fear of the Lord, revival, deliverance, blessings,etc in Jesus name.
SHALOM!!!
