Thank God?

Thank God?

Dear Lord, I pray for wisdom for those who give thanks. In Jesus’ name, amen.

Worship and thanksgiving go together in Psalm 118:28-29 (ESV). In the concluding words of this Psalm, the congregation extols (i.e. praises and exhausts) the Lord.

“You are my God, and I will give thanks to you;
you are my God; I will extol you.
Oh give thanks to the Lord, for he is good;
for his steadfast love endures forever!”

The Lord provides. He saves. He lifts up those who are downtrodden. For all the Lord has done in your life, give thanks, for he is good. Do not loose heart when trials come.

‘His steadfast love endures forever.’
Let those who fear the Lord say,
‘His steadfast love endures forever.’”

God’s Promises?

God’s Promises?

Dear Lord, I pray for wisdom for those who know the generation of the upright will be blessed. In Jesus’ name, amen.

At the time it was written, Psalm 112:3-8 (ESV) tells us that he who followed God’s commandments was promised the following:

“His offspring will be mighty in the land;
the generation of the upright will be blessed.
Wealth and riches are in his house,
and his righteousness endures forever.
Light dawns in the darkness for the upright;
he is gracious, merciful, and righteous.
It is well with the man who deals generously and lends;
who conducts his affairs with justice.
For the righteous will never be moved;
he will be remembered forever.”

What a list of promises. It is well for a man who conducts his affairs with justice. Follow God. Are their things in your life that need to change? Ask God’s guidance for what he recommends for next steps. Take a leap of faith.
