Fountain References To God  Psalm 36:9 -- For with You is the fountain of life; in Your light we see light.  Psalm 68:26 -- Bless God in the congregations, even the Lord, you who are of the fountain of Israel.

Jeremiah 2:13  “For My people have committed two evils: they have forsaken Me, the fountain of living waters, to hew for themselves cisterns, broken cisterns that can hold no water.

A Fountain Of Blessings  10,000 blessings  To Him I owe my life, my health, my friends, and every good thing in my life.

Mark 12:30  …and you shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind, and with all your strength.’  James 1:17 -- Every good thing given and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation or shifting shadow.

A Fountain Of Comforts  Neither few nor small  He is a source of fresh delights  God is our portion  Lamentations 3:24 -- “The Lord is my portion,” says my soul, “Therefore I have hope in Him.”

2 Corinthians 1:3  Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and God of all comfort….

A Fountain Of Joy  He fills my heart with joy  Psalm 16:11 – “You will make known to me the path of life; In Your presence is fullness of joy; In Your right hand there are pleasures forever.”

My Lips Attunes For Praise…  God prepares praise for Himself.  Psalm 51:15 – “ O Lord, open my lips, that my mouth may declare Your praise.”

Hebrews 13:15  “Through Him then, let us continually offer up a sacrifice of praise to God, that is, the fruit of lips that give thanks to His name.”

God tunes our hearts/lips for praise  Isaiah 57:19 – “Creating the praise of the lips. Peace, peace to him who is far and to him who is near,” says the Lord, “and I will heal him.”

God Is Worthy Of Praise  But He does not merely wait for praise – He works in the world to produce it….  Ephesians 1: He predestined us to adoption as sons through Jesus Christ to Himself, according to the kind intention of His will, to the praise of the glory of His grace, which He freely bestowed on us in the Beloved.

Ephesians 1:12, 14  …to the end that we who were the first to hope in Christ would be to the praise of His glory…. [Spirit] who is given as a pledge of our inheritance, with a view to the redemption of God’s own possession, to the praise of His glory.

How does that benefit us?  Sheer joy in praising God  …And to His glory I’ll devote the remnant of my days!
