God is Great and Greatly to be Praised, God is Great in my soul, God is Great and Greatly to be Praised, Blessed the Lord oh my soul! His Greatness is beyond all searching out (Psalms 145:3). He is Wonderful, Counsellor, the Mighty God, the Everlasting Father, the Prince of Peace (Isaiah 9:6(b)). We can put all of our Trust in Him because it is in Him that we live, move and have our being (Acts 17:28). Therefore, let us live with an expectation that God is able and capable to do everything but fail, He is God all by Himself and doesn’t need any assistance from anyone else. He has the Master plan, even though we make plans, His plan supersedes ours. Thank God for going before us making a way out of no way. We have hope, we are believers, we have faith so let us not get weary in well doing so that we may reap the benefits of God. Don’t give up, don’t faint. Keep your mind stayed on Jesus knowing that He is the author and finisher (developer) of our faith. He is still in the blessing business right in the midst of this pandemic. He specializes in blessings. <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt'>Lord, thank you for continually blessing us even though we are living today with lots of uncertainty. Help us to continually pray and lift up our petitions to you. Let us pray until something happens. Yes, He hears your prayers, but He is building your faith and He inhabits the praises of His people; He wants to hear your voice. I was so bless today when I went out to prepare for the hurricane, I found out that I did not need almost anything; I already had it because of the pandemic, so I immediately thanked God for supplying all of my need (Phil. 4:19).
