Thanking God from His word

Psalms 119 is the longest chapter in the Bible.  I love this chapter because it is all about the Word of God.  The Bible is a great place to learn about the Word of God.

This chapter is followed by several short chapters called the songs of  Ascents  found in Psalms 121-134.

I found something to be thankful to God for in each Chapter

Chapter 120 Thank God the He hears our prayers when we are in distress and delivers  us from bondage

Chapter 121 Thank God that He is our Helper, keeper, defender and protector that does not sleep or slumber.  Thank Him that He does not let us stumble or fall.  He protects us day and night.  He keeps His eyes on us and always guards us.

Chapter 122 Thank God for the house of the Lord where we can assemble together to praise the name of the Lord, thank Him and pray for peace.

Chapter 123 Thank God  that we can have the confidence in His love to lift up our eyes to Him for His mercy and kindness

Chapter 124 Thank God that He is always on our side when we are in trouble and provides a way of escape.  Our help is in the Lord who made Heaven and Earth.

Chapter 125  Thank God that those who trust Him can not be removed and will abide with Him forever. Thank God that He is fair and does good to those whose heart are right with Him.

Chapter 126 Thank God that He restores us and fills us with laughter, joy and song with all the great things that He does to make us glad.  He sees our tears and brings back our rejoicing.

Chapter 127 Thank  God that He builds the house and home and watches over the city and gives His own rest and sleep. Thank Him for our children which His gift to us and our reward to bless us and make us happy.

Chapter 128 Thank God for the blessings of a God-fearing family who trust and obey Him. His reward is prosperity and happiness for them and their children.

Chapter 129 Thank God for endurance and His overcoming our enemies.

Chapter 130 Thank God for forgiveness of sin. Thank Him that  He hears our cry and  prayers  and  that we can wait on Him in hope because of His steadfast love.

Chapter 131 Thank  God who satisfies us with hope in the Lord so that we can trust in Him now and forever.

Chapter 133 Thank God for wonderful  brotherly unity where harmony is as refreshing as the dew on the mountain and God has pronounced His eternal blessing.

Chapter 134 Come Bless the Lord all you who serve the Lord and may the Lord who made heaven and earth bless you.
