Be Thankful for God’s Blessings
Fourth book of Psalms (Ps 90-106)
is similar to Numbers, noting God’s
overruling kingdom to the nations.
And Ps 98-103 give us reasons to
worship God and why we should
Be Thankful for salvation (Ps 98),
God answers prayers (Ps 99),
God’s mercy and truth (Ps 100),
God’s justice and holiness (Ps101),
God’s care when downcast (Ps102),
and manifold blessings (Ps 103).
Abba Father, You are great & there
are many things to be grateful for.
Whilst life may have its challenges,
we will not to sink to the level of
the problems but look up to You
as the solution to our problems.
Lord, we Implore Your Help,
Lord, we Praise Your Mercy; and
Lord, we Thank Your Benefits. Amen
Lord, we Praise Your Mercy:
Enter into His gates with thanks-
giving, and into His courts with
praise. Be thankful to Him, and
bless His name. For the Lord
is good; His mercy is everlasting,
and His truth endures to all
generations (Psa 100:4-5).
Lord, I come before You with praise
and thanks for who You are and
everything You have done for me.
No matter what happens in my life,
I purpose not to sink to the level of
the problem. Instead I will rise to the
level of the solution and praise You
as the solution to my problems. Amen
Lord, we Implore Your Help:
Hear my prayer, O Lord; let
my cry for help come to you.
Do not hide your face from me
when I am in distress. Turn your
ear to me; when I call, answer me
quickly…You will have compassion…
for the appointed time has come…
He will respond…he will not despise
their plea (Psa 102:1-2, 13-17).
Lord, I worship You that You are
greater than anything I face.
Thank You that You are merciful
and compassionate and that You
hear my prayers and answer them.
Thank You that You inhabit my
praise and in Your presence my life
and circumstances are changed.
And grateful that praising You also
changes me. In Jesus’ name, amen.
Lord, we Thank Your Benefits:
Bless the Lord, O my soul,
And forget not all his benefits:
He forgives all my sins and heals
all my diseases. He ransoms me
from death and surrounds me
with love and tender mercies.
He fills my life with good things.
The Lord gives righteousness…
to all… The Lord is merciful and
gracious; he is slow to get angry
and full of unfailing love (103:3-8)
Lord, reveal Your mercy, grace
and unfailing love in my life.
Thank you for revealing Your
wondrous attributes in Your Word. Open my eyes as I read Your Word
so that my prayers are based on
the foundation of Your character.
And may my prayers have power for
they are based on Your truth. Amen
