Worthy is God our Father, who is faithful from everlasting to everlasting. His dominion will never fail. His mercies are sure and His grace He has freely given. Wonderful is He who reigns on high, for there is no other god besides our God.

“I call upon the LORD, who is worthy to be praised, and I am saved from my enemies.”

(Psalms 18:3)

All glory to God, who has given us life. All honor and power belongs to Him. Through Jesus, we have salvation. By His Word, we are healed. He gives out of the abundance of His heart, and He blesses those whom He chooses to bless.

Our God created all things. Out of nothing made He the heavens and earth. From the dust He shaped us, molded us into who we are, breathed into us the breath of life and made us living souls. Great is our God, for He is good. There is no one like our God.

By His will, He made all things. Through His Word, God brought all things into being. There is nothing made, which He had not made. Wonderful is God our Lord, for all praises belong to Him. Great is He, our Creator, our God.

Worthy is God.

Jesus came to deliver us from the bond of sin, so that we would look to Him for salvation. True liberty comes not from being bound by the world’s desires, but by following Jesus and making Him the center of our world. Our freedom is with us believing He is the Son of God.

“Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus by command of God our Savior and of Christ Jesus our hope, To Timothy, my true child in the faith: Grace, mercy, and peace from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Lord.”

(1 Timothy 1:1-2)

No other truth is as simple, or as pure, or as undefiled as that of knowing Jesus is all we need. We may see others prosper, or grow in inheritance, and even gain the entire world, but in the end, will they be able to take all those riches with them?

Through Jesus, we know God; through God, we have freedom, for through His Son, whom God has appointed as our savior, we will have hope for eternal life. That life does not esteem riches, but points to God’s glory as the foundation of our joy.

Seek Jesus with all your heart, with all your soul and with all your mind, for it will be well with you that day when you stand before God the Father and will give an accounting of your life to Him; because Jesus is our hope.

Be glad in the LORD and rejoice, for He is good. He gave us life and breath and loved us first above all else. His mercies are forever sure and His grace is everlasting. Wonderful are the Lord’s deeds and perfect are His ways. No one can resist the Lord our God.

Many are the sorrows of the wicked,
but steadfast love surrounds the one who trusts in the LORD.
Be glad in the LORD, and rejoice, O righteous,
and shout for joy, all you upright in heart!

(Psalms 32:10-11)

Blessed be the name of the Lord, for He has poured joy into our hearts through Jesus Christ, who lives in us. Happy are we to know His ways and see His miracles. Great is He to have blessed us with happiness, brimful and running over.

Wonderful is our God, who has made all things, sustains all things and blesses all things with His presence. Blessed are we to bow our knees to our Heavenly Father and give thanks for all the good He has done in our lives.

Rejoice in God, for His love for us will never fail. He rescues us daily, purging us of our sins and filling us with His spirit so that His love lives in us forever. Give honor to Him who made us and bless Him always. Be glad in the LORD and rejoice.

When we bow our knees to the Lord our God, knowing He has sacrificed so much for us through His son Jesus, seeking His will for our lives in faith, He will answer us and give us what we need. He will not let us suffer more than we can bear.

“Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our affliction, so that we may be able to comfort those who are in any affliction, with the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God.”

(2 Corinthians 1:3-4)

Seek riches that moth cannot corrupt and rust cannot consume, for real riches, true eternal riches, come from God. The rich store gold in their purses and goods in their homes, but the wise, who seek God’s will, store eternal riches in mansions that will not fade.

Take comfort in God knowing the rich have received their reward. Our reward is yet waiting for us in heaven, and neither man nor demon will be able to take away what God has generously given to us, His elect.

Count it all joy when God allows us to wait for His answer to our requests. His plans for us will not fail, for He purposes His will so that we glorify Him in all things through our patient endurance. Therefore, brothers and sisters, be of cheer; again, take comfort in God.

If God did not spare His only Son Jesus Christ, who bore our sins on the cross on our account, what more would He do for us, since He considers us heirs to all things? He would do anything for us; His dominion is everlasting, and we will one day reign with him forever.

“There is no fear in love, but perfect love casts out fear. For fear has to do with punishment, and whoever fears has not been perfected in love. We love because he first loved us.”

(1 John 4:18-19)

No manner of fear should shake us from our faith in God, for He is the bulwark against which our enemies will fight. No one can resist Him. He is kind to the kind, and He is merciful to the merciful. He will pour His wrath upon the unjust.

Whatever plans that ancient serpent, who is called the devil and Satan, the deceiver of the whole world, has for us, will come to naught. He has no power over us, for we no longer walk following the course of this world. His time will soon be at an end.

Bless the Lord our God, for He is good. Bless Him and His holy name. His mercies will never fail. He is the Alpha and the Omega, the first and the last, the beginning and the end. He will repay. Perfect love casts out fear.

Blessed is our God, who saved us from the penalty of sin and has given us true freedom from iniquity through the sacrifice of His Son Jesus Christ. Blessed are we to know salvation; blessed are we to know that we will one day live and reign with Christ forever.

Blessed be the Lord,
who daily bears us up;
God is our salvation. Selah
Our God is a God of salvation,
and to GOD, the Lord, belong deliverances from death.

(Psalms 68:19-20)

Who set the boundaries of the sky, separating it day from night? Who says to the waves, “To this shore and no further shall you go?” Who brought life to this world, raising the branches of the trees in worship to its Creator?

Who made the whale to drift back and forth in the ocean, proclaiming God’s glory? Who lifted the wings of the eagle, for it to waft along the mountains, honoring Him who gave it life? Who set the lion on the jungle’s throne to reign as a witness to its Maker’s majesty?

Only our God can raise and lower mountains by His Word. Only our God can give rain in due season. Only our God can purge the wicked from this world. Only our God can give and take life. Blessed be the Lord.

As God has forgiven us, let us forgive others. No manner of sin should rule in our heart. Put away bitterness and draw nearer to God, for His love for us is good and His troubles are light. Worship him always, giving thanks for His love.

“Put on then, as God’s chosen ones, holy and beloved, compassionate hearts, kindness, humility, meekness, and patience, bearing with one another and, if one has a complaint against another, forgiving each other; as the Lord has forgiven you, so you also must forgive.”

(Colossians 3:12-13)

Be rid of bitterness, for it is as a weed that wastes the heart and strangles life. Hate rises from its roots and threatens all who keep company with us. Purge its ground with God’s love and allow His kindness to flourish within you.

Be gentle toward one another. Never allow a slight to turn us from God’s truth. Through Jesus, we have salvation. Is there anything more we ought to desire than to be with God always? Show compassion toward all, for we do not know their plight.

Give to those in need. Bless the homeless. Show mercy to those who struggle inwardly. Visit the infirm. Bestow heavenly treasures to the elect, guiding them toward God. See that no one leads you astray. Forgive one another.
