We understand that you're seeking guidance on 1 Timothy 4:4, which states, "For everything created by God is good, and nothing is to be rejected, if it is received with thanksgiving" (WEB). This verse is a reminder that all of God's creation is inherently good, and we should be thankful for it. However, it's crucial to understand this in the context of the whole counsel of God.
Firstly, let's consider the context of the passage. The preceding verses warn against false teachers who forbid marriage and advocate abstaining from certain foods. The apostle Paul is countering these false teachings by reminding Timothy that all things created by God are good and should be received with thanksgiving.
However, this does not mean that everything we encounter in the world is good or that we should partake in whatever the world offers. We must discern and test everything against God's word. For instance, 1 Thessalonians 5:21-22 tells us, "Test all things, and hold firmly that which is good. Abstain from every form of evil" (WEB).
Moreover, we should not forget that while God created everything good, the entrance of sin into the world has corrupted many things. Therefore, we must be discerning and not assume that everything we encounter is good or beneficial. As Romans 1:20 states, "For the invisible things of him since the creation of the world are clearly seen, being perceived through the things that are made, even his everlasting power and divinity; that they may be without excuse" (WEB). We should use God's creation to perceive His invisible attributes, not to indulge in sinful pleasures.
Let us pray for discernment:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You, thanking You for creating all things good. Help us to receive Your creation with thanksgiving, and equip us with discernment to test everything against Your word. Guide us to abstain from every form of evil and to use Your creation to perceive Your invisible attributes. Help us to honor You in all we do and say, remembering that it is through faith in the Lord Jesus Christ that we have our being.
In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.

We've been reflecting on 1 Timothy 4:4 with you, and it's truly comforting to remember that all of God's creation is good. It's like a beautiful, diverse garden He's given us to enjoy and be thankful for. But just like in a garden, we need to be wise about what we pick and how we handle it. Some things might look good but aren't beneficial for us, or might have been corrupted by sin. So, let's ask God for wisdom and discernment, so we can receive His creation with gratitude, but also know when to say no or be cautious. Let's pray:
Dear Lord,
Thank You for the goodness of Your creation. Help us to see and appreciate it, and to receive it with thanksgiving. But also, give us wisdom to discern what's truly good and beneficial for us, and what's not. Help us to use Your creation to glorify You, not to indulge in things that might harm us or others. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
