The Lord has been mindful of us; He will bless us;—Psalm 115:12
This entire psalm is about the trustworthiness of the Lord. What a gift for me today to think on the blessings and rewards of trusting my God. Our God is mindful of us…His mind is literally filled (as much as an infinite mind can be) with thoughts of us, His children.
How precious also are Your thoughts to me, O God!
How great is the sum of them!
If I should count them, they would
be more in number than the sand;
When I awake, I am still with You—Psalm 139:17-18
The verse goes on to say that He WILL bless us. God is the same yesterday, today and forever. All of the His promises are yes in His Son. His steadfast love toward us never ceases…He DAILY loads us with benefits.
For the LORD God is a sun and shield;
The LORD will give grace and glory;
No good thing will He withhold
From those who walk uprightly.
O LORD of hosts,
Blessed is the man who trusts in You!—Psalm 84:11
He has redeemed those who have placed their trust in Him…Heaven awaits and belongs to those who trust God. He is our security, our stability and our power. He is our hope, our joy, and our praise. In trusting Him we are like Mt Zion which cannot be shaken but endures forever. (Ps 125:1)
Beloved…Trust in the LORD forever, for in YAH, the LORD, is everlasting strength. Read the verses below and be encouraged, strengthened and blessed. As you read, write down what blessings are associated with each verse. Reading them in the Amplified helped me here.

And the young men shall utterly fall,

Shall renew their strength;

They shall run and not be weary,
They shall walk and not faint.—Isaiah 40:28-30
Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the 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, to the praise of the glory of His grace, by which He made us accepted in the Beloved.
In Him we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of His grace which He made to abound toward us in all wisdom and prudence, having made known to us the mystery of His will, according to His good pleasure which He purposed in Himself, that in the dispensation of the fullness of the times He might gather together in one all things in Christ, both which are in heaven and which are on earth—in Him. In Him also we have obtained an inheritance, being predestined according to the purpose of Him who works all things according to the counsel of His will, that we who first trusted in Christ should be to the praise of His glory.
In Him you also trusted, after you heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation; in whom also, having believed, you were sealed with the Holy Spirit of promise, who is the guarantee of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession, to the praise of His glory.—Ephesians 1:3-14
