We can rejoice that we are a blessed people
Dr. Roberto Miranda(Audio: Spanish)
SUMMARY:
The passage from Psalm 103 is a call to remember all the benefits that God has given us and to bless the Lord with our soul and being. The psalmist emphasizes the importance of not forgetting any of God's benefits, including forgiveness of sins, healing, rescue, crowning with favor and mercy, and satisfaction with good. The speaker encourages us to remember God's blessings and express gratitude, even in difficult times. The passage also highlights David's awareness of his own sinfulness and his need for forgiveness. The speaker reminds us that adoration is a discipline and that praising God, even when we don't feel like it, can bring joy and freedom.
In this sermon, the speaker reflects on the first two verses of Psalm 103. He emphasizes that the Bible presents us with imperfect people, like David, who committed adultery and murder, but who also loved God and acknowledged their sin. The speaker encourages listeners to confess their sins before God and to trust in His mercy and grace. He also highlights that God is a healer who can heal all our ailments, whether physical, emotional, or spiritual. He cites the story of the bitter waters in Exodus and the healings performed by Jesus in the Gospels as examples of God's healing power. While acknowledging that healing is a mystery and that not everyone may receive physical healing, the speaker emphasizes that we should always approach God with faith and trust in His power to heal.
The speaker discusses how God intervenes in our lives, particularly in healing us when we are sick and rescuing us from difficult situations. They emphasize the importance of having faith in God and crying out to Him for help. The speaker also talks about how God blesses us abundantly, filling our mouths with goodness and mercy. They encourage listeners to change their mindset to expect blessings from God and to saturate their minds with a blessing mentality. The message concludes with an invitation for anyone who has not yet given their life to God to do so.
The speaker invites anyone who feels called by God to come forward and receive prayer and deliverance. They encourage confessing Christ as Lord and Savior, repenting of sins, and rebuking the enemy. The speaker also prays for those going through difficulties and tribulations, asking for God's grace and blessings over their lives. They thank God for the privilege of walking in His ways and seek to make the church a refuge for souls. The speaker invites anyone who wants more prayer to come forward and receive a touch from the Holy Spirit. They close with thanks and praise to God.I want to share a passage from Psalm 103, and I want to leave with you a Word of encouragement that God has placed in my heart to share, it is a Psalm of praise for the mercy of the Lord and it is an invitation from the Holy Spirit for us to remember all the things that God has for our lives; the rights, the resources, the blessings that God places in our hands, that wonderful God that we have and that we can rejoice that we are a blessed people.
The psalmist David says in Psalm 103 verses from 1 to 5: "Bless my soul to the Lord, and bless all my being His Holy Name. Bless my soul to the Lord and do not forget any of his benefits. He is the one who forgives all your iniquities , the one who heals all your ailments, the one who rescues your life from the hole, the one who crowns you with favors and mercies, the one who satisfies your mouth with good so that you rejuvenate like the eagle." What a precious psalm, what a blessing.
