One way to win the fight against worry, anxiety, doubt, and little faith is to count your blessings. It’s profound and easy yet somehow difficult to do. I believe its a challenge for many believers because the enemy wouldn’t allow them to do. O yeah! it becomes easier to pick phone to complain than to get into solitude mood to honor God for His goodness and mercy.
Weekend Experience:
Last weekend when the enemy bombarded me with many thoughts in attempt to hijack my joy, I tried this little trick. I picked my pen, notepad, cup of coffee, with some classical worship songs, I began to write my blessings in 2018. It was amazing to see over three pages of things God has done in my life. Guess what, I ended up worshiping and praising God for His benefits which transformed the atmosphere I was in.
Little Things Matter:
Often people look at their major unmet needs and think that God isn’t working in their lives. But what they fail to acknowledge is that little things matter.
Little drops of water make the mighty ocean.
Everything God does in your life matters, whether big or small. Therefore don’t expect to see a big break before you give him thanks. Sometimes the little blessings lead to bigger ones.
Count Your Blessings:
Within the next 30 seconds, I want you to cast your mind back from January and begin to count the many things God has done in your life. If He could do a thing for you, then He is able to accomplish what He has begun.
Don’t allow situations, people, and your thoughts limit what God can do in your life. The more you count your blessings, the more you give Him Praise. And the more His Glory comes upon your life.
Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good (Psalm 118:1, NIV)
I was thinking about which song to sing and how it could be linked to what God has done throughout the year. In fact many songs came on my mind but the one that stood out was Count Your Blessings by Johnson Oatman Jr.
