Bible Verse for July 18th.

 

I will praise you, Lord, with all my heart; I will tell of all the marvelous things You have done. 

I will be filled with joy because of You. I will sing praises to your name, O Most High.

 

Psalms 9:1-2

NLT Bible

 

So many of us can attest to the marvellous things God has done for us and all we can do is praise and give thanks to Him. On a personal note, I can testify to God’s goodness, faithfulness and healing power. Time and time again, I have seen His mighty hand at work in my life and I am filled with joy because of Him. Many people may feel that it’s enough to give God thanks at the time He’s blessed us and then just move on with life. However, when God does great things for us, we are to speak of it continually. In doing so, we minister to others and this can have an impact on their lives.

 

Giving praise and thanks to God must be a way of life for us! When we open our eyes in the morning, it’s the first thing we should do and all through the day we can continue to praise His Holy Name. Then, we end our day thanking Him once more for all He’s done. God deserves our praise and He is worthy of it!  As His followers, we must open our mouths, recount all the wondrous things He’s done for us and thank and sing praises to God. We all experience difficult times, but through it all, there’s always something great that God is doing that we can praise Him for. We can increase our faith by continually recalling all the great things God has done, as recorded in the Bible and throughout all of history.

 

Thank you Lord for Your many blessings. Today and always, I will tell of all the marvellous things You have done for us all. As I recall them, my heart is filled with so much joy. I love you, Jesus. Amen!

 

Be Blessed!
