Give Thanks
“O give thanks unto the Lord;
for He is good; for His mercy endureth for ever. And say ye,
Save us, O God of our salvation, and gather us together, and deliver us from
the heathen,
that we may give thanks to Thy holy name, and glory in Thy praise. Blessed
be the Lord God
of Israel for ever and ever. And all the people said, Amen, and praised the
Lord.”
1 Chronicles 16:34 -36
This is the end of the Psalm King David wrote
when all Israel brought up the ark of the
covenant
of the Lord unto the city of David. We should be thankful God’s mercy
endureth
for ever. Sometimes it can be easy to take for granted that God
will give us mercy. When
we do
something wrong, if we say we are sorry (confess our sins) He will forgive
us. Yes,
He will
forgive us, but as Christians our body is the temple of the Holy Ghost. We
should
strive to
become more holy like Christ. Sometimes we get so busy and concentrated on
all the
distractions in life that we forget to notice all the little blessings God
showers upon us.
Remember when praying to give thanks unto the Lord for all of His many
blessings. The Bible
says that God inhabits the praise of His people. So give thanks unto the
Lord. Praise ye the
Lord. AN
Ezra 1:1-2
He is Faithful
Now in the first year of Cyrus king of Persia, that the Word of the LORD by
the mouth of
Jeremiah might be fulfilled, the LORD stirred up the spirit of Cyrus king of
Persia, that he
made a proclamation throughout all his kingdom, and put it also in writing,
saying, Thus
saith Cyrus king of Persia, The LORD God of heaven hath given me all the
kingdoms of
the earth; and He hath charged me to build Him an house at Jerusalem, which
is in Judah.
Ezra 1:1-2
How exciting it must have been
to read that proclamation. After being in captivity for years
the Jewish people were finally free to go home. God had done what he said He
would do,
He had not forgotten what He had promised. As we go through the trials and
temptations
of life, it sometimes feels like we have been forgotten. Whenever that
happens we must
remember how God was faithful with the Jews, and trust He will be faithful with us
too. NEN
Psalms 145:10-12
Make Him Known
“All Thy works shall
praise Thee, O LORD; and Thy saints shall bless Thee. They shall speak
of
the glory of Thy kingdom, and talk of Thy power; To make known to the sons
of men His
mighty acts, and the glorious majesty of His kingdom.”
Psalm 145:10-12
“Thy saints shall bless Thee.” Two of the meanings of
the word bless are “thank” and
“make holy.” The saints are those who have
trusted in Jesus Christ as their personal Savior,
and live a life
that shows
it. If you are a saint, do you thank God for what He has done in your
life?
The saints will bless (thank) the Lord, so do you? Do you bless (make Him
holy) through
your life? God is Holy, but how people see His Holiness is
through His saints. Do you consider yourself a person who strives for
holiness? Your life, your actions, your choice of literature and
entertainment, your integrity in business transactions - do all of these
present to others that you abstain from every appearance of evil? Do YOU
make Him Holy? Do you speak of the glory of God’s kingdom and talk of His
power? To me the glory of His kingdom could be what Christ did
for sinners
on the Cross. Do you tell others “the old, old story”? The power of God is
clearly seen in Creation, but what will really reach others is the power of
what God has done in your own life. Do you tell
people how God’s power walks
you through fiery trials, floats you over floods of despair, and delivers
you from overwhelming temptations? Do you tell them how He has given
you the
victory? Do you make known to others “what God hath wrought”? Do you tell
others
these things so that you can point them to the Father, Son, and Holy
Ghost who brought you through? Or, do you
talk about it to draw attention to
yourself? Thank Him for what He has done, make Him Holy before all, and talk
about the glory of His kingdom and His power so you can make Him known
to the sons of men.
