Our Blessed God
The word blessed (makarios) in this verse also means “happy.” The good news of the gospel spread by the early Church was that there was a loving and good God unlike the pagan deities, who plagued man with trickery and whose “happiest” moments of sexual indulgence or drunken revelry were always exchanged for disappointment and despair.
Our “blessed God” is that One who is bent on our fulfillment and happiness.
Prayer Is Invading the Impossible

Pastor Jack Hayford points the way to the life-changing pathway of praise. No matter how you feel, praise will shape what your experiences will become. When doubts come, praise God that His Word will never fail you. When fears taunt, praise God that His presence never leaves you. When questions arise, praise God that His wisdom holds every answer. Praise leads you to the One who assures peace beyond strife, hope beyond trial, joy beyond sorrow, and life beyond all.
