David knew 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 forgiving God Who forgives all our iniquities. He knew that God heals all our diseases. 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!
