“Thanksgiving For The Lord’s Favor”

Psalm 138 is the 138th psalm of the Book of Psalms, generally known in English by its first verse, “I will praise thee with my whole heart” ( King James Version ). The Book of Psalms is found in the third section of the Hebrew Bible, and a book of the Christian Old Testament. Psalm 138 is a declaration that even the kings of the nations will praise Yahweh. “This Psalm is wisely placed. Whoever edited and arranged these sacred poems, he had an eye to apposition and contrast; for if in Psalm 137 we see the need of silence before revilers, here we see the excellence of a brave confession.
Psalm Chapter 138:1-8
I will praise thee with my whole heart: before the gods will I sing praise unto thee. I will worship toward thy holy temple, and praise thy name for thy lovingkindness and for thy truth: for thou hast magnified thy word above all thy name. In the day when I cried thou answerers’ me, and strengthened me with strength in my soul. All the kings of the earth shall praise thee, O LORD, when they hear the words of thy mouth. Yea, they shall sing in the ways of the LORD: for great is the glory of the LORD. Though the LORD be high, yet hath he respect unto the lowly: but the proud he knows afar off. Though I walk in the midst of trouble, thou wilt revive me: thou shalt stretch forth thine hand against the wrath of mine enemies, and thy right hand shall save me. The LORD will perfect that which concerned me: thy mercy, O LORD, endures for ever: forsake not the works of thine own hands.
{Prayer}
Father God, I don’t understand how this can be, I thank You and praise Your wonderful name that You are with me every step of the way in this life. I thank You and praise You every moment of my day. I thank You for this life of freedom that only You can bestow on anyone who believes in Jesus Christ and that He died for our sins and rose to new life to be with me and all who believe. I thank You and praise You that You are over all Nations in Jesus Precious Name Amen.
