Wednesday Thought -- November 7, 2012


Good Morning Friends,

“Praise the LORD, O my soul; all my inmost being, praise his holy name.  Praise the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits -- who forgives all your sins and heals all your diseases, who redeems your life from the pit and crowns you with love and compassion, who satisfies your desires with good things so that your youth is renewed like the eagle’s.” (Psalm 103:1-5)

Have you thought recently about the benefits the Lord does and will bring into your life?

He forgives all our sins.  He’s already done that.  He did that on Calvary and confirmed it when we received Jesus by faith.

He heals all our diseases.  I know we still get sick, some of us are sick right now.  And God doesn’t promise healing from every disease, not while we are on earth.  Just read the Bible and count the men and women of God who suffered from infirmity without healing.  But a day does come when every disease will be healed, and the healing will go on for eternity!

He redeems our lives from the pit.  The pit is what we all deserve.  We’ve earned it by our sin.  But we won’t get what we deserve, not if we know Jesus Christ.  He’s already paid the price for us.

He crowns us with love and compassion.  He’s doing that every day.  A day, not even a moment goes by without God loving us.

He satisfies our desires and renews our youth.  I’m waiting patiently for that one and it will come for me.  For you, too.  Forever!

Take a moment and think about His benefits in your life.  Do it often!

His, by Grace,

Steve
