 THE BLESSINGS OF GOD

The blessings of God are too numerous to even attempt to enumerate. From Genesis to Revelation, the blessings of God are described. Sadly, not too many have fully comprehended why the blessings of God were given.

OUR NEW SERIES OF PULPIT MESSAGES

In the new series of pulpit messages, we will study afresh what it means to receive the blessings of God! Let’s look at a beautiful text that King David wrote as he pondered the blessings of God.

                                                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!     Psalm 103:1-2

  1. Blessings are indeed “benefits”
  1. His blessings are not meant to be forgotten!

WHAT ARE SOME OF GOD’S BLESSINGS?

King David wrote down a number of blessings that he gave thanks to God for!

Who forgives 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.     Psalm 103:3-5
