Often we usually bombard God with our problem rather than be grateful for all He has done and His still doing. Let meditate with the below psalm.
BLESS the LORD, O my soul; and all that is within me, bless His holy name!
Bless the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits:
Who forgives all your all your iniquities, who heals all your diseases,
Who redeems your life from destruction, who crowns you with lovingkindness and tender mercies,
Who satisfies your mouth with good things, so that your youth is renewed like the eagle's.
The LORD executes righteousness and justice for all who are oppressed.
He made known His ways to Moses, His acts to the children of Isreal.
The LORD is merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and abounding in mercy.
He will always strive with us, nor will He keep His anger forever.
He has not dealt with us according to our sins, nor punished us according to our iniquities.
For as the heavens are high above the earth, so great is His mercy toward those who fear him.
Psalm 103:1-11
This another way of saying, "Tell the Lord always: "I am grateful for all your benefits". You should be grateful that you are alive to see this new month. You should be grateful for your family, you should be grateful that you have a little shelter over your head. In all situations (peasant or unpeasant), give thanks. Thanksgiving will open the gates for more divine intervention. As you begin this new month, never allow the devil to see you crying again! Your enemies shall not live to rejoice over you in Jesus name ! Like Michal, saul's daughter who laughed at David and was barren for life (2 Sam 6:21-23), those who mock you shall end up in a barren and desolate land in Jesus name!!!
I pray and desire that every nation will have a day of National Thanksgiving despite the current woes, turmoil and failures of nations worldwide! No matter how 2018 has been and no matter the heart of the battles you are facing, you must determine not to allow gloom to replace praise!
Millions are serving the Lord with "secret anger" against God! No, tell the devil that from this day, you will serve the LORD with gladness, despite the delays and harsh furnace of "satanic Nebuchadnezzars." please catapult your inner man from despair and depression through praise. Force yourself to laugh today and daily!
Do not rejoice over me, my enemy; when I fall, I will arise; when I sit in darkness, the LORD will be a light to me
Micah 7:8
That should be your confession daily! Never again shall you weep by the river of Babylon" weeping is over! Worship is taking over! By and by you will understand the reasons for your allowed battle confronting you! And by the way - have you told Him: "Lord, I am grateful for everything" today? Do it now!
