Praise God for His blessings and favours upon us.
“God will bless us, and all the ends of the earth will fear him.” Ps 67:7
Psalm 67 is the 3rd of the four praise songs from Ps 65 – 68.
This is a song declaring God’s mercy to us where he bless us and cause his face to shine upon us. This chapter begins with a prayer in verse 1& 2, Prayer to God for his blessings and favour. Others who see His blessings and favours upon his people will come to the knowledge of God.
Verse 3-5 The people of God will praise Him for his abundant blessings. And Nations will join in praising God. When God blesses His people, the blessings are evident to all. It can be seen. As in verse 6-7, the effect of God’s blessing is that the land will yield it’s harvest.
There is prosperity when God bless. This is not the works of man but the divine blessing of God. Only God can bring about such great and awesome blessings. We will fear the Lord because we have been blessed by Him and we know He is God. We fear him because we do not want to come out of his blessings for us.
Application:
This is the third day since reading Psalm 65 that we learnt about praising God. Indeed, there is so much for us to praise God. Let’s take a few minutes to praise God for his blessings and favours today. The more you praise Him the more you will enter into his abundant blessings where prosperity and favours will bestow upon you.
