Ps103:2
Let my whole being bless the Lord and never forget all his good deeds: (Psalms 103:2 CEB)
We are all indebted to the Almighty God.
Irrespective of our many needs that are yet to be met, remember that the breath of life that you have is not a function of your power.
Just take a break, think deeply, look at things happening around you globally, nationally, locally,, you will give ceaseless praise to God.
Why do people think they should not thank God?
1- they are looking at those things they do not have, but forget to look at things they have right now.
2-some say, they have nothing
3-This is because they are unmindful of the fact that it is with life things are produced, and when you have life you have all things
Ps 68:19
Blessed be the Lord, who daily loadeth us with benefits, even the God of our salvation. Selah. (Psalms 68:19 KJV)
Note that there is nothing we need that the Lord has not provided for.
Houses, food, cars,spouses, etc.
So:
When the psalmist went to the church , he went with joy
Ps122:1
I was glad when they said unto me, Let us go into the house of the Lord. (Psalms 122:1 KJV)
Ps42:4
When I remember these things, I pour out my soul in me: for I had gone with the multitude, I went with them to the house of God, with the voice of joy and praise, with a multitude that kept holyday. (Psalms 42:4 KJV)
Ps92:1
It is a good thing to give thanks unto the Lord, and to sing praises unto thy name, O most High: (Psalms 92:1 KJV)
1Why then do we need to wait for people to motivate us to praise, give thanks, offer our gifts to God?
2- Why then do we behave as if there is nothing in our lives to thank God for?
Remember that the mercy of God towards us is everlasting
Ps 100:5
For the Lord is good; his mercy is everlasting; and his truth endureth to all generations. (Psalms 100:5 KJV)
So:
1-We should be singing & praising His name.
2-Bless the Lord for all He has done in the past
3- all He is doing in the present
4- - all is yet to do.
As you do these, He is committed to doing more.
Testimonies:
1-How my paternal responsibilities to my family are met.
2-The journeys I give God the praise & redeemed my vows.
3- how many of His blessings & protections & safety can I count.
If for all the blessings, & protection of the Almighty God, we can't praise Him enough.
When you give God the glory that is due to Him, He moves on your behalf.
1-You get miracles in return.
2-He can then ambush your enemies
3-Open doors in every aspect of your life.
Importation :
Ps 103:1-14 CEB
Let my whole being bless the Lord! Let everything inside me bless his holy name! Let my whole being bless the Lord and never forget all his good deeds: how God forgives all your sins, heals all your sickness, saves your life from the pit, crowns you with faithful love and compassion, and satisfies you with plenty of good things so that your youth is made fresh like an eagle’s. The Lord works righteousness; does justice for all who are oppressed. God made his ways known to Moses; made his deeds known to the Israelites. The Lord is compassionate and merciful, very patient, and full of faithful love. God won’t always play the judge; he won’t be angry forever. He doesn’t deal with us according to our sin or repay us according to our wrongdoing, because as high as heaven is above the earth, that’s how large God’s faithful love is for those who honor him. As far as east is from west— that’s how far God has removed our sin from us. Like a parent feels compassion for their children— that’s how the Lord feels compassion for those who honor him. Because God knows how we’re made, God remembers we’re just dust. (Psalms 103:1-14 CEB)
