TOPIC - God’s Wonderful Deeds
BIBLE TEXT - O Lord my God, you have done many miracles for us. Your plans for us are too numerous to list. If I tried to recite all your wonderful deeds, I would never come to the end of them. - Psalm 40:5
Remembering all the wonderful things God has done in our lives can produce so much gratefulness that we won’t be able to keep quiet about God’s goodness to us. We’ll spontaneously talk about his faithfulness and saving power to those around us (Psalm 40:10). But just as the Israelites quickly forgot the miracles God did for them when he delivered them from bondage in Egypt, we, too, can easily forget what God has done for us and begin to grumble and complain.
We tend to forget answered prayers or other “little things.” But throughout the Scriptures, we see reminders to remember what God did. When we recall and recite God’s goodness to us and praise him for it, we gain renewed hope for the future because we realize that his plans—and blessings—are too numerous for us to list!
Recount the ways God has worked in your life. You might want to write them down. Then on rough days, you can read them and see how God has worked. Praise him for all he has brought you through and for the wonderful deeds you have seen him accomplish.
PRAYER
OH, LORD, you have done many miracles for us. Thank you that your plans are bigger than all of us put together! How I praise you for your wonderful deeds! Help me to remember your goodness to me. Give me courage to talk to others about your faithfulness and saving power and to live my life in a way that would draw them to you.
INSIGHT
If you discern [God’s] love in every moment of happiness, you will multiply a thousandfold your capacity to fully enjoy your blessings.
