Good Wednesday Morning Blog Family. I pray everyone’s having a blessed week so far. I know I truly am. Thank You Jesus.
Well, this morning during my prayer time, the Holy Spirit brought something to my attention. Whenever I do my morning and night time prayers, I always incorporate scriptures into them. Reminding God of His Word, which is for me and not God. He knows what He has promised me, He’s just making sure I know too.
So, some of the scripture I pray is Psalm 103:1-5. This morning when praying these scriptures, it was as if the Holy Spirit was pointing out each verse separately to make sure I knew what I was praying. Immediately I said, thank You Holy Spirit and thank You for my blog this morning. Because every Christian should read and pay very close attention to Psalm 103, the entire Psalm. I would always just pray the the first 5 verses, but I should be praying more. I read the entire Psalm 103 and I saw it differently this time. I believe the way God intended for me and all of His children to see it.
I have posted Psalm 103 below, take a little quiet time and read it and think about what it is saying to you. Amazing.
Psalm of David.
103 Bless the Lord, O my soul;
And all that is within me, bless His holy name!
2 Bless the Lord, O my soul,
And forget not all His benefits:
3 Who forgives all your iniquities,
Who heals all your diseases,
4 Who redeems your life from destruction,
Who crowns you with lovingkindness and tender mercies,
5 Who satisfies your mouth with good things,
So that your youth is renewed like the eagle’s.
6 The Lord executes righteousness
And justice for all who are oppressed.
7 He made known His ways to Moses,
His acts to the children of Israel.
8 The Lord is merciful and gracious,
Slow to anger, and abounding in mercy.
9 He will not always strive with us,
Nor will He keep His anger forever.
10 He has not dealt with us according to our sins,
Nor punished us according to our iniquities.
11 For as the heavens are high above the earth,
So great is His mercy toward those who fear Him;
12 As far as the east is from the west,
So far has He removed our transgressions from us.
13 As a father pities his children,
So the Lord pities those who fear Him.
14 For He knows our frame;
He remembers that we are dust.
15 As for man, his days are like grass;
As a flower of the field, so he flourishes.
16 For the wind passes over it, and it is gone,
And its place remembers it no more.
17 But the mercy of the Lord is from everlasting to everlasting
On those who fear Him,
And His righteousness to children’s children,
18 To such as keep His covenant,
And to those who remember His commandments to do them.
19 The Lord has established His throne in heaven,
And His kingdom rules over all.
20 Bless the Lord, you His angels,
Who excel in strength, who do His word,
Heeding the voice of His word.
21 Bless the Lord, all you His hosts,
You ministers of His, who do His pleasure.
22 Bless the Lord, all His works,
In all places of His dominion.
Bless the Lord, O my soul!
Just look at all of our benefits, forgiveness of our iniquities, healing of our diseases, our lives redeemed from destruction, we are crowned with His loving kindness and tender mercies, our mouth is satisfied with good things and our youth is renewed like the eagles and so on and so on. This is just the first 5 verses and then there’s even more. Wow, what a good God we serve. God Bless:)
