“Many, O LORD my God, are Your wonderful works
Which You have done;
And Your thoughts that are toward us
Cannot be recounted to You in order;
If I would declare and speak of them,
They are more than can be numbered.”  Psalm 40:5

Last time we looked at just, oh so very few, of God’s temporal gifts.  This time let’s look in Scripture to see some of God’s spiritual gifts of blessing.
As we continue to sing--
“Count your blessings, name them one by one…”

Spiritual and eternal blessings--
Salvation:
“For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.”  
John 3:16

Election and adoption:
“Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in heavenly places in Christ,
just as He chose us in Him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before Him in love,
having predestined us to adoption as sons by Jesus Christ to Himself, according to the good pleasure of His will.”
Ephesians 1:3-5

Forgiveness:
“He has delivered us from the power of  darkness and transferred us into the kingdom of the Son of His love,
in whom we have redemption, through His blood, the forgiveness of sins.”
Colossians 1:13-14

Regeneration:
“Therefore, if anyone is in Christ he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold all things have become new.”  2 Corinthians 5:17

The Holy Spirit:
“But you shall receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you; and you shall be witnesses to Me in Jerusalem, in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.”  Acts 1:8

No condemnation:
“There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in 
Christ Jesus, who do not walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit.”  Romans 8:1

Christ’s intercession:
“Who is he who condemns?  It is Christ who died, and furthermore is also risen, who is even at the right hand of God, who also makes intercession for us.”  Romans 8:34

God also disciplines those He loves, those who are His.  It is for our good.
“For the moment all discipline seems painful rather than pleasant, but later it yields the fruit of righteousness to those who have been trained by it.”
Hebrews 12:11 (Be sure to read Vs. 5-11 for the why of the Lord’s discipline.)

I encourage each to make his/her own list of God’s gifts and blessings. 

Thank you Most Holy God for making us Your own.  All praise, honor, love, worship, joy, obedience, thankfulness be unto You from we Your children now and forever more.  Amen
