Psalm 147

Psalm 147

(Read Psalm 147)

Sometimes we take much of our blessings for granted. Yes we may rejoice in our salvation, we must appreciate all our spiritual gifts and we may express pleasure for the indwelling Holy Spirit. What about everyday activities? After all - James 1:17 Every good thing bestowed and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the father of light.

The Psalmist here gives praise to our God for providing rain, for making the grass grow and bringing the finest wheat, for the wind and ice and cold, all the everyday things we experience and need for our physical benefit. Sometimes we are a forgetful people, perhaps a little lacking in gratitude to God, for all the physical, material and spiritual provision that he gives us. But not this Psalmist.
