Counting my blessings.

 Amen. This is one of the wisest things a heart can do—to stop, look back, and count the blessings of the Lord.


"Bless the Lord, O my soul, and forget not all His benefits." — Psalm 103:2 (AMP)

Counting Your Blessings:


Count them one by one—


· Salvation — You were lost, and He found you. You were dead, and He made you alive.

· Forgiveness — Every sin washed away by the blood of Jesus. Not hidden, but removed.

· Adoption — You are not an orphan. You are a child of the Most High God.

· His Presence — He has never left you. Not once. Not ever.

· His Word — A lamp to your feet and a light to your path.

· His Spirit — Your Comforter, Teacher, Guide, and Strength.

· His Faithfulness — New mercies every morning. Great is His faithfulness.

· His Provision — He has supplied. He is supplying. He will supply.

· His Protection — Angels encamped around you. The blood covering you.

· His Healing — By His wounds, you are healed.

· His Promises — Yes and amen in Christ Jesus.

· His Love — Unfailing, unchanging, unending. Nothing can separate you from it.

· His Cross — Where He paid it all.

· His Empty Tomb — Where death lost its sting.

· His Coming Again — The blessed hope. The soon-coming King.


And the list goes on—


· The breath in your lungs.

· The beating of your heart.

· The sunrise this morning.

· The food on your table.

· The roof over your head.

· The family around you.

· The friends who love you.

· The prayers He has answered.

· The prayers He is still answering.

· The prayers He said "no" to—because He knew better.

Thank You for the big things—

the miracles, the breakthroughs, the answered prayers.


Thank You for what I see.

Thank You for what I cannot see.

Thank You for what You have done.

Thank You for what You are doing.

I count my blessings—

and I find that they are more than I can number.


In Jesus' name,

Amen."

And they are all because of Him.


Amen.
