This One Is On God

Psalms 103: 1- 6
1Bless the LORD, O my soul: and all that is within me, bless his holy name.
 2Bless the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits:
 3Who forgiveth all thine iniquities; who healeth all thy diseases;
 4Who redeemeth thy life from destruction; who crowneth thee with lovingkindness and tender mercies;
 5Who satisfieth thy mouth with good things; so that thy youth is renewed like the eagle's.
 6The LORD executeth righteousness and judgment for all that are oppressed.

Don't worry about how it will work out. Learn to give God total praise. He wants us to love Him with all our heart, soul, and mind (Matt 22:37). He wants all of us. Learn to praise God with your emotions. Come to the house of God to give Him his due.

Psalm 103:2
2Bless the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits:

God deserves a little bit more. There is something called reasonable service (i.e not cheating on your spouse, not fornicating, tithing, ect). God doesn't owe us a blessing because we are doing what we are supposed to do. We are supposed to love our spouses, not have sex outside of marriage and give 10% of our income to God. You may be single and keeping yourself and mad at God because He hasn't brought you a spouse is. You are not suppose to keep yourself. Go the extra mile with God.

There are benefits for being a child of God. When you take yourself out of the equation you will have more peace. You have to walk around the house knowing that greater due to you. You have to know that you know that you know that you know that the situation that you are going through is on God.

You can't be mad at God because he believes in you. You are His investment and if He has to put you through the fire to get a return, He will do it. He is not going to give you up easily. Take tea for example. You can't enjoy the tea bag until the tea hits the boiling water. You can't enjoy the anointing until it goes through the heat. Learn to appreciate God when He removes the hedge. Look at Job. The devil had to get permission from God before trouble came to him.

Job 2:1-7
 1Again there was a day when the sons of God came to present themselves before the LORD, and Satan came also among them to present himself before the LORD.
 2And the LORD said unto Satan, From whence comest thou? And Satan answered the LORD, and said, From going to and fro in the earth, and from walking up and down in it.
 3And the LORD said unto Satan, Hast thou considered my servant Job, that there is none like him in the earth, a perfect and an upright man, one that feareth God, and escheweth evil? and still he holdeth fast his integrity, although thou movedst me against him, to destroy him without cause.
 4And Satan answered the LORD, and said, Skin for skin, yea, all that a man hath will he give for his life.
 5But put forth thine hand now, and touch his bone and his flesh, and he will curse thee to thy face.
 6And the LORD said unto Satan, Behold, he is in thine hand; but save his life.
 7So went Satan forth from the presence of the LORD, and smote Job with sore boils from the sole of his foot unto his crown.

What are you going to do when God removes the hedge? Your response should be that you will praise Him even harder.

When you have insurance you read the plan to know what your benefits are and what you are entitled to. The same should be done with God. Read the bible to know what you are entitled to.

Hebrews 12:1
1Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us,

We should lay aside every weight. Some of us are in the predicaments we are in because of weight. We have to do spring cleaning in our lives. Some of us are in delayed positions because we are not laying aside every weight.

Psalm 103:3
 3Who forgiveth all thine iniquities; who healeth all thy diseases;

Know that you are forgiven. Jesus came to save sinners. Don't ever look down at anybody. People are always watching. No one wants to be around someone who is bringing negativity. The more forgiveness the church walks in the more favor the church will walk in. Will you forget where you came from?

God is a healer. He can heal your diseases. It is part of your benefit. By Jesus' stripes we are healed (Isaiah 53:5). Jesus took 39 stripes for every avenue of diseases. Don't give into the disease though it is hard. God, not the doctor, has the last word.

Psalm 103:4
 4Who redeemeth thy life from destruction; who crowneth thee with lovingkindness and tender mercies;

1 Cor 15:55
 55O death, where is thy sting? O grave, where is thy victory?

Isaiah 54:17
17No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper; and every tongue that shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD, and their righteousness is of me, saith the LORD.

Stay prayed, read, and fasted up so when darkness comes it won't take you out. No one goes to war with out training. Don't let people stress you out. God will not let you down.

Psalm 106:5
 5Who satisfieth thy mouth with good things; so that thy youth is renewed like the eagle's.

God satisfies us with good thinkgs (good spouses, church, ect). He knows how to give good gifts. There is nothing wrong with having good things.

Psalm 106:6
 6The LORD executeth righteousness and judgment for all that are oppressed.

The Lord knows how to execute righteousnessand judgment. When we stand before Him we all have to give an account (Romans 14:12).

Deut 32:35
35Vengeance is Mine, and recompense, in the time when their foot shall slide; for the day of their disaster is at hand and their doom comes speedily. 
There are angels around you. Though we are not to return evil for evil it doesn't mean we should let people walk over me. Let God fight for you.

When we walk into our new place at L.O.G.I.C. we will walk into the blessings of God. We will get double for our trouble.
