Every good gift and every perfect
gift is from above, and comes down from the Father of lights, with whom there
is no variation or shadow of turning - James 1:17.
Our God is the giver
of gifts. God’s gifts to us are good, perfect and right on time. If a son asks
for bread from any father among you, will he give him a stone? Or if he asks
for a fish, will he give him a serpent instead of a fish? Or if he asks for an
egg, will he offer him a scorpion? If
you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much
more will your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to those who ask Him!” - Luke
11: 11-13. Every blessing we have in our life are the gifts of God.
God is the giver of wisdom, strength, grace and
love to us. But if any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to
all generously and without reproach, and it will be given to him - James 1:5. He
gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak - Isaiah 40:29.
But He gives more grace. Therefore He says: “God resists the proud, But gives
grace to the humble.” - James 4:6. For
God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound
mind - 2 Timothy 1:7.
God
gives us the peace which the world can never give us. Peace I leave with you,
My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your
heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid - John 14:27. Let us delight
ourselves in the Lord as He will give us the desires of our heart. Delight
yourself in the Lord; And He will give you the desires of your heart - Psalm 37:4.
Let us look at everything that our good God gives us as good as He is the giver of good
gifts.
PRAYER: Dear Lord, You are the giver
of gifts. We thank You for all the good gifts You have given us. In Jesus name
we pray. Amen.
