Shalom,

Psalm 103:1-5:

1 Bless (affectionately, gratefully praise) the Lord, O my soul; and all that is [deepest] within me, bless His holy name! 2 Bless (affectionately, gratefully praise) the Lord, O my soul, and forget not [one of] all His benefits— 3 Who forgives [every one of] all your iniquities, Who heals [each one of] all your diseases, 4 Who redeems your life from the pit and corruption, Who beautifies, dignifies, and crowns you with loving-kindness and tender mercy; 5 Who satisfies your mouth [your necessity and desire at your personal age and situation] with good so that your youth, renewed, is like the eagle’s [strong, overcoming, soaring]!

What a great way to start every day! Blessing the LORD our GOD Who has already blessed US with everything we will ever need to succeed and prosper in every area! How do I know that? Look at Ephesians 1:3:

May blessing (praise, laudation, and eulogy) be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ (the Messiah) Who has blessed us in Christ with every spiritual (given by the Holy Spirit) blessing in the heavenly realm!

AMEN! I LOVE how the Amplified Bible tells us to  "affectionately and gratefully praise the Lord"! Reminding ourselves every day of all that HE has done for us will keep us in a grateful, thankful mindset. That attitude will put us in the position that Moses was in where the Lord could do verse 7 of Psalm 103 for him!

7 He made known His ways [of righteousness and justice] to Moses, His acts to the children of Israel.

I desire to really KNOW Him! I hope that You do, too! Here is Hillsong with "I Live To Know You":

Shalom in Him!
