TOPIC: BLESS THE LORD, O MY SOUL AND FORGET NOT ALL HIS BENEFITS.
Bible Reading: Ps. 103 & 104; 1Cor 2
“Bless the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all His benefits. Who forgives all your iniquities; Who heals all your diseases” – Psalm 103: 2 & 3 (KJV).
Since the first humans rebelled against God’s instructions, the curse of sin, sickness and death has been upon the entire human race. But God has provided the means for victory over the consequences of this curse. This Psalm lists God’s benefit for His people: forgiveness of sins, healing for diseases and the gift of spiritual freedom and eternal life.
Forgiveness is the first and most important gift we can receive form God because it restores our relationship with Him and rescues us from spiritual destruction. Physical healing is also part of God’s complete salvation; a benefit available to those who have received forgiveness and personal relationship with God.
