The Lord Has Dealt Bountifully With Us

-November 24, 2024-

Good morning beloved, happy Lord’s Day,

“I will sing to the Lord, because He has dealt bountifully with me.”

(Psalm 13:6).

As we approach Thanksgiving Day, today’s verse is a timely reminder of what the Lord has done for us and what He has given to us. God provides for His children in abundance.

As we sing at church today, the Lord’s Day, let us focus on the words we are singing, and praise the Lord for His love, goodness, and mercy. He saved us when we didn’t deserve it; and daily provides for us when we still don’t deserve it.

The word bountiful is defined as, “Liberal or generous in bestowing gifts or favors; given or provided abundantly.” The Lord is all of that and a whole lot more.

David wrote, “Return to your rest, O my soul, for the Lord has dealt bountifully with you. David reminded himself of how God delivered him from death more than once. We need reminders ourselves of His protection, provision, and power in our lives.

Can you not say “God has dealt bountifully with me?” He has done wonders and miracles in our lives. Our response should to give thanks to Him and obey Him fully. Bill MacDonald commented on this psalm, “This Psalm like many of our God-sent testings: they begin with a sigh but end with a song.”

Have a blessed day of worship and praise. Stay safe and healthy.

When God gives us bountifully, we should praise Him joyfully.
