NOTHING LEFT EXCEPT PRAISE

Before I knew the Lord there was nothing I could do. And now, after being saved and made His own, everything has already been done. We already have everything.

"Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in Christ with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places..." Ephesians 1:3

"His divine power has granted to us all things that pertain to life and godliness, through the knowledge of him who called us to his own glory and excellence..." 2 Peter 1:3

"Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! According to his great mercy, he has caused us to be born again to a living hope thorugh the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, to an inheritance that is imperishable, undefiled, and unfading, kept in heaven for you." 1 Peter 1:3-4

There is nothing left to do but trust in Him, delight in Him, rest in Him, and praise Him.

"What shall I render to the Lord for all his benefits to me? I will lift up the cup of salvation and call on the name of the Lord." Psalm 116:12-13
