'Benefits' in the Bible

Yet all of this does not satisfy me as long as I see Mordecai the Jew sitting at the king’s gate.”

Bless and affectionately praise the Lord, O my soul,And do not forget any of His benefits;

What will I give to the Lord [in return]For all His benefits toward me?[How can I repay Him for His precious blessings?]

The merciful and generous man benefits his soul [for his behavior returns to bless him],But the cruel and callous man does himself harm.

Give, and it will be given to you. They will pour into your lap a good measure—pressed down, shaken together, and running over [with no space left for more]. For with the standard of measurement you use [when you do good to others], it will be measured to you in return.”

For if their [present] rejection [of salvation] is for the reconciliation of the world [to God], what will their acceptance [of salvation] be but [nothing less than] life from the dead?

but just as it is written [in Scripture],“Things which the eye has not seen and the ear has not heard,And which have not entered the heart of man,All that God has prepared for those who love Him [who hold Him in affectionate reverence, who obey Him, and who gratefully recognize the benefits that He has bestowed].”

If we have sown [the good seed of] spiritual things in you, is it too much if we reap material things from you?

Therefore, since we have this ministry, just as we received mercy [from God, granting us salvation, opportunities, and blessings], we do not get discouraged nor lose our motivation.
