Thankfulness for the Lord’s Goodness

by on November 28, 2021

Key Scripture: Psalm 92:1-5 “A Psalm, a Song for the Sabbath day. It is good to give thanks to the Lord to sing praises to your name, O Most High; to declare your steadfast love in the morning, and your faithfulness by night, to the music of the lute and the harp, to the melody of the lyre. For you, O Lord, have made me glad by your work; at the works of your hands I sing for joy. How great are your works, O Lord! Your thoughts are very deep!”

Through this psalm we are reminded of the call to worship and praise the Lord throughout the day. Often we have certain times of the day
or week we routinely praise the Lord. We are often tempted to put this time into a box and separate it from the rest of our lives. However, the Psalmist points out that God is steadfast in the morning and still faithful at night. This reminds us to praise Him throughout the day and throughout the whole week. When we choose to listen to or sing music that praises the Lord, it helps us remember His goodness and blessings in our lives.

The Lord has offered us salvation which, by itself, is enough to praise Him all of our days. However, His grace and mercy don’t stop there. He continues to provide boundless blessings from His hands that we can rejoice in. He keeps the world in balance and cares for us at the same time. His providence and wisdom can be seen in all of creation. The intricate details of which God works on our behalf is incredible. God is the standard for good, and we can praise Him in that.

Questions to Consider:

Do you put God in a box and only praise Him certain times a day/week? What works of God’s goodness do you see in your life?

Prayer Prompts:

  • Pray that the praises of God would flood your thoughts and color your speech.

  • Ask God to open your eyes to His goodness through His works around you.

  • Meditate on 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18
