"For you make me glad by your deeds, Lord; I sing for joy at what your hands have done." - Psalm 92:4
Forrest Gump had it right, "Stupid is as stupid does." What that means is that stupid people do stupid things. In fact, even people who aren't really stupid do stupid things. The bottom line is that people do stupid things.
Forrest Gump could've also said, "God is as God does." What that means is that God is great and does great things. In fact, even the things that God does that may not seem so great are actually amazingly great, if you'll stop and think about 'em. The bottom line is that God does really great things.
You may want to read what follows because people who want to be inspired read inspiring things. So, in accord with today's verse from Psalm 92:4, here's kind of a montage of scripture quotes about the things "the Lord has done" that make us glad and sing for joy.
So with a Billy Graham style opening, here ya go!
The Bible says...
Consider what great things he has done for you.
The Lord gives them rest, as he has done for you.
It was the Lord your God who fought for you.
We will tell the next generation the praiseworthy deeds of the Lord, his power, and the wonders he has done.
Sing to the Lord a new song, for he has done marvelous things; his right hand and his holy arm have worked salvation.
The Lord has done this, and it is marvelous in our eyes.
Our mouths were filled with laughter, our tongues with songs of joy. Then it was said among the nations, "The Lord has done great things for them."
The Lord has done great things for us, and we are filled with joy.
Sing to the Lord, for he has done glorious things.
Who has done this and carried it through, calling forth the generations from the beginning? I, the Lord—with the first of them and with the last—I am he.
So that people may see and know, may consider and understand, that the hand of the Lord has done this, that the Holy One of Israel has created it.
I will tell of the kindnesses of the Lord, the deeds for which he is to be praised, according to all the Lord has done for us— yes, the many good things he has done for Israel, according to his compassion and many kindnesses.
The Lord has done what he planned; he has fulfilled his word.
Do not be afraid, land of Judah; be glad and rejoice. Surely the Lord has done great things!
Jesus said to them, "Have you never read in the Scriptures: "'The stone the builders rejected has become the cornerstone; the Lord has done this, and it is marvelous in our eyes'?"
Jesus did not let him, but said, "Go home to your own people and tell them how much the Lord has done for you, and how he has had mercy on you."
"The Lord has done this for me," she said. "In these days he has shown his favor and taken away my disgrace among the people."
"For you make me glad by your deeds, Lord; I sing for joy at what your hands have done." - Psalm 92:4
