One of the habits that my wife and I are developing is to stop and thank God on the spot when something good happens. We’re pretty good at praying and taking our needs to Him, but most of the time when He answers, we just celebrate and move on. We believe it’s important to recognize when God answers. What we know about God is that every good and perfect gift we receive comes from Him (James 1:17). When good things happen, it’s from God. Think back over the last week, month and year. How many good things has God given you? Take time to thank Him for all the good things He’s done and given you because every good thing comes from Him.
Here are some Bible verses on good things from God.
1. You have done many good things for me, Lord, just as you promised.
Psalms 119:65 NLT
2. Lord, how wonderful you are! You have stored up so many good things for us, like a treasure chest heaped up and spilling over with blessings— all for those who honor and worship you! Everybody knows what you can do for those who turn and hide themselves in you.
Psalms 31:19 TPT
3. You satisfy my every desire with good things. You’ve supercharged my life so that I soar again like a flying eagle in the sky!
Psalms 103:5 TPT
4. As bad as you are, you know how to give good things to your children. How much more, then, will your Father in heaven give good things to those who ask him!
Matthew 7:11 GNT
5. They all wait for You To give them their food in its appointed season. You give it to them, they gather it up; You open Your hand, they are filled and satisfied with good [things].
Psalms 104:27-28 AMP
