You are Crowned

Have you ever worn a crown? Yes, you have, perhaps without realizing it! As we read from The Daily Light in our morning devotions, we read Psalm 103:1-3, “Bless the Lord, O my soul… who crowneth thee with lovingkindness and tender mercies.” Every morning God puts a crown on your head of His lovingkindness and tender mercies. Thank Him for this beautiful crown and be consciously aware of wearing it as you walk through this day. It will change your attitude and turn your heart to God in gratitude and awe.

The Hebrew word, “lovingkindness” is chesed, one of the most beautiful words in the Bible. It descries God’s unfailing love and mercy to undeserving sinners and relates to “grace” in the New Testament which can be understood as “God’s Riches At Christ’s Expense.”

Psalm 103 gives us more understanding. Verse 8 tells us that God ABOUNDS in lovingkindness. Verse 11 says that God is GREAT in lovingkindness, and verse 17 says that His lovingkindness is from “EVERLASTING TO EVERLASTING upon them that fear him, and his righteousness unto children’s children.”

Tell your children about this wonderful blessing. Encourage each one in the family to be consciously aware of God’s crown upon their head.
