How are we to view God's blessings in our lives?

Believers are encouraged to view all blessings as gifts from God, rooted in His sovereignty and grace. In 1 Chronicles 29:12, David states, 'Both riches and honor come of thee, and thou reignest over all.' This acknowledgment stems from the understanding that everything we possess is ultimately from God's hand. Recognizing that we contribute nothing to our salvation and that all good things come from Him fosters a spirit of thankfulness and humility. The Apostle Paul reaffirms this in 1 Corinthians 4:7, asking, 'For who maketh thee to differ from another? And what hast thou that thou didst not receive?' This perspective ensures that all our praise and gratitude flows back to God, for He is the source of every blessing.
