Daily Bible Verse and Devotion – Psalm 35:28

Posted on July 20, 2022

And my tongue will proclaim Your righteousness, Your praise all day long . – Psalm 35:28 (HCSB)

How often do we talk about what is going wrong in our lives? We talk about how things didn’t turn out like we thought, how we have too much stress in our lives, or how we are just disappointed about something. We often let the hurts, disappointments, and stress in our lives become the majority of what we say.

What do you think would happen if we decided instead of talking about all that’s going wrong rather to talk about how good God is? What if we spent some time every day thanking God for all the blessings in our lives and for all the awesome things He has done for us?

A change like that would affect our whole outlook and attitude on life. Instead of walking around without heads down, and being sad, we would have something to be happy about.

We would instantly feel some of the stress of life just leave all because we took some time to speak life-giving words and remind ourselves of all the things we have to thank God for.

Today’s Truth: Choose to change your outlook on life! Be thankful for all God has done.

Challenge yourself today to take some time to praise God for all He has done in your life.

Daily Bible Verse and Devotion – Psalms 103:2

Posted on September 14, 2017

Today’s Bible Verse and Devotion is Psalm 103:2

Let all that I am praise the LORD; may I never forget the good things he does for me. – Psalm 103:2 (NLT)

When hard times come, its sometimes really easy to want to give up. You might blame God or just give up.

In the midst of hard times, its important that we remember what this verse says. It tells us to praise the Lord and to not forget the good things God does for us.

Its easy when things aren’t going the way you want to give up, blame God and start throwing ourselves a pity party. If we do this, however, we’re missing out on something really important. God tells us to not forget the good things He’s done. When we remember God, when we remember the things He has done for us in the past, we begin to realize that God will help us out this time too.

So instead of getting discouraged when tough times come, choose to look to God and remember the times God has brought you out of bad situations. And realize, He will do that again for you!
