It is good to sing praises to God every morning and thank Him for His faithfulness every night. When God says He loves a cheerful giver, He is not only speaking of money, but also when you cheerfully give Him your time, thanks and praise, without murmuring and complaining and without being forced.

If you are a Christian and have not been thrilled by all God has done for you, then you are like the children of Israel wandering in the wilderness being full of forgetfulness and un-gratefulness. Psalm 92:4 tells us that God’s works and everything He has done for you should make you glad, because you will triumph by the work of His hands.

God has done great works and miracles. His thoughts are not only deep, but Isaiah 55:8-9 tells us that His thoughts and ways are superior and far from our own thoughts. When we think one dollar, He thinks one hundred billion. Psalm 92:6 confirms 1 Corinthians 2:14, that a senseless or natural person does not know this, nor do they understand or comprehend the omnipotence, omniscience and omnipresence of God because it is foolishness to them.

Again the Lord reminds us in Psalm 92:7 and Psalm 37:1 that the wicked will spring up like grass and flourish, but it is temporary because they will be destroyed forever; therefore we should not fret or worry about the wicked. However, the righteous, He says in verse 12 will flourish like a palm tree and grow like a cedar in Lebanon. Which means you will not bend or buckle to the pressures of life, instead you will grow as big as a cedar tree. Because you are planted, rooted, and grounded in the house of the Lord you will flourish in the courts of God and still bear fruit in old age (no retirement for the man of God) and remain fresh, declaring the uprightness of the Lord.

You can’t flourish like a palm tree and be righteous on your own. But with Jesus you can. Receiving Him into your life, receiving salvation is what will put you in right-standing with God (righteousness) and give you the ability to flourish.

I exercise my power and authority in the name of Jesus to bind every tactic of the enemy that will try to stop, hinder, or prevent this word from reaching its intended people. I ask the Lord to loose the Holy Spirit and the Heavenly angels to secure this word so that it reaches its intended people, according to Matthew 16:19 and Luke 10:19 in the omnipotent name of Jesus, Amen.
