“Jesus the very thought of thee, with sweetness fills the breast; but, sweeter far thy face to see, and in thy presence rest.” Lord, please keep our minds fixed on you!
“No voice can sing, no heart can frame, nor can the memory find; a sweeter sound than Jesus’ name, the Savior of mankind. O hope of every contrite heart, the joy of all the meek, to those who fall how kind thou art, how good to those who seek.” Thank you, Lord!
Jesus bore the shame for us at Calvary, and it is high time, for all of us, to tell of the goodness of Jesus, and what he has done for us; it is time for us to tell the Blessed story, of the Christ who went all the way to Calvary for us, bruised, battered, scorned and crucified.
“When I think of the goodness of Jesus and what he has done for me, my soul cries out Hallelujah, thank God for saving me. I feel good, good, good, I feel good, wonderful good, every time I talk about Jesus, I feel good, good, good. Because he set me free one day, he set me free, he broke the bonds of prison for me, someday in glory his face I will see, oh, glory be to God, he set me. Oh, glory be to God, he set me free.”
Still, I am certain to see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living. Psalm 27:13
How excellent is thy lovingkindness, O God! therefore the children of men put their trust under the shadow of thy wings, they feast on the abundance of Your house, and You give them drink from Your river of delights. Psalm 36:7-10
Who is the man who fears the Lord? He will instruct him in the path chosen for him. Psalm 25:12
You have made known to me the path of life; You will fill me with joy in Your presence, with eternal pleasures at Your right hand. Psalm 16:11
You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies. You anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows. Psalm 2:5
Oh, how great is thy goodness, which thou hast laid up for them that fear thee; which thou hast wrought for them that trust in thee before the sons of men! Psalm 31:19
The Lord does so many wonderful things for us and we are glad. Psalm 126:3
And in that day, it will be said, “Surely this is our God; we have waited for Him, and He has saved us. This is the Lord for whom we have waited. Let us rejoice and be glad in His salvation.” Isaiah 25:9
For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life. John 3:16
“To God be the glory, great things He has done, so loved He the world that He gave us His Son, who yielded His life in atonement for sin, and opened the life-gate that all may go in. Praise the Lord, praise the Lord, let the earth hear His voice, praise the Lord, praise the Lord, let the people rejoice, O come to the Father to Jesus the Son, and give Him the glory, great things He has done.”
The Lord is in His holy temple; the Lord is on His heavenly throne. His eyes are watching closely; they examine the sons of men. Psalm 11:4
I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills from whence comes my help, my help comes from the Lord, who made heaven and earth. Psalm 121
If you, O Lord, should mark iniquities, Lord, who could stand? But there is forgiveness with you, so that you may be feared. Psalm 130
“Oh Israel, hope in the Lord, for with the Lord is steadfast love, and with him is great power to redeem. It is he who will redeem Israel from all its iniquities.”
We would never be able to recount God’s blessings to us in order, so as they come to mind, give God a praise!
“Count your blessings name them one by one, count your blessing see what God has done, count your blessings, name them one by one, and it will surprise you what the Lord has done. When you look at others with their lands and gold, think that Christ has promised you his wealth untold, count your many blessings money cannot buy, your reward in heaven nor your home on high.”
