David understood the power of these two powerful truths! The first one was that God is a Good God who provides for every area of our lives. Number two is that He knew the importance of never forgetting the goodness of God. He would command his soul to “bless the Lord”. He would make sure that he “blessed” the Lord with everything within him. He knew that God had granted him many benefits. He knew that God is a loving God Who forgives and heals. Because of that, he said this: “Bless the LORD, O my soul; And all that is within me, bless His holy name! Bless the LORD, O my soul, And forget not all His benefits: Who forgives all your iniquities, Who heals all your diseases.” Psalm 103:1-3. We now have the same opportunity to bless the Lord every day for His goodness in the land of the living. Never forget: He is worthy of our gratitude and praise. He is good, all the time!
Psalm 31:19 “Oh, how great is Your goodness, Which You have laid up for those who fear You, Which You have prepared for those who trust in You In the presence of the sons of men!”
