#990: Don't Forget About the Benefits
Show Notes

The scripture says to us, “don’t forget about all of God’s benefits. In the midst of life’s challenges, don’t forget about all the good things God has done for you.”


Main Points:

1. Even when life is good and our struggles are minimal, it’s easy for us to forget what the Lord has done. In the hustle and bustle of life, it's easy to become consumed by our daily routines, obligations, and distractions. Our minds can be preoccupied with tasks, worries, and plans, leaving little room to stop and reflect on the goodness of God. 


2. These encouraging verses remind us that the Lord is our forgiver, healer, redeemer, provider, satisfier, and renewer. How could we forget that? And yet we often do.


3. As David writes this Psalm, he implores his soul to bless the Lord and to remember His goodness. It's a call to intentional reflection, a conscious effort to pause and acknowledge the hand of God at work in our lives.
