Do not forget any of his benefits

Psalms 103:1-7
1 Praise the Lord, my soul; all my inmost being, praise his holy name. 2 Praise the Lord, my soul, and forget not all his benefits 3 who forgives all your sins and heals all your diseases, 4 who redeems your life from the pit and crowns you with love and compassion, 5 who satisfies your desires with good things so that your youth is renewed like the eagle’s. 6 The Lord works righteousness and justice for all the oppressed. 7 He made known his ways to Moses, his deeds to the people of Israel.

Reflection:

While you are awaiting for your unanswered prayer, do not forget any of his benefits.
While your children are serving or not serving the Lord, do not forget any of his benefits.
While you are pressured or concerned about today, do not forget any of his benefits.
While you are building a ministry or assisting one, do not forget any of his benefits.
While you are growing rich or living by means, do not forget any of his benefits.
While people come in and out of your life, do not forget any of his benefits.
In all that you do, think, and feel never forget any of his benefits.

In a time when doing what is right, and serving the Lord has become scarcely difficult to many. We must always remember to prioritize our lives and mind according to scriptural truth. King David reminded himself that there is eternal profit, divine benefits in praising and serving the Lord God. Perhaps you don't have the latest car, or the million dollar house, perhaps your dreams seems almost impossible to accomplish, perhaps you are just waiting for some supernatural event to intervene in your life and rescue you from your turmoil. But, let me remind you according to God's truth that there is more to life than just material prosperity. There is a never ending truth that God will redeem you and crown you with love and compassion. You will rise again and your sins will be forgiven forever. Live in this truth when your soul is bankrupted, and you shall see that you are richer than you think!

"Praise" the Instrument of War

Psalms 100:1-5

1 Shout for joy to the Lord, all the earth. 2 Worship the Lord with gladness; come before him with joyful songs. 3 Know that the Lord is God. It is he who made us, and we are his; we are his people, the sheep of his pasture. 4 Enter his gates with thanksgiving and his courts with praise; give thanks to him and praise his name. 5 For the Lord is good and his love endures forever; his faithfulness continues through all generations.

Reflection

Today, if you are facing circumstances beyond your control, God has a word for you!

If you find yourself shaken or even fainting there is a "Rhema Word" that can restore your joy, and place you once again in your rightful place with Christ. The most important ingredient in every miracle, in every breakthrough, and in every blessing is the measure of your "spiritual appetite". God knows very well how to feed his sheep, his riches are endless and his answers to your problems have already been provided. I read something the other day that I would like to share with you so that you may be blessed, and it reads like this..... "the Gospel is God's gift to you, what you do with the Gospel is your gift to God". God desires to bless you with a fresh anointing so that you may have hope, are you hungry for God?

As the great Psalmist "David" uttered his deepest groaning in a songful prayer, he understood that his God would never abandon nor forsaken him. David understood that regardless of the great circumstances that awaited him, his God was worthy to be exalted. I would like to tell you that there is a "shout" that will break open the windows of heavens for you today. This "shout" is not a scream - but a clamor. A declaration of what you know and not what you feel. David taught us that in the midst of his greatest adversities, a prayerful Song could reach the heart of God. Clam your joy and your victory with shouts of "praise"!

As you do so, you will immediately sense your heart shift, your joy return, and your hopes energized. David learned the secret of War through praise! For praise and worship is for God's Glory, but for your Victory!
