Give thanks
1 Chronicles 16:34
Oh give thanks unto the Lord;for He is good; for His mercy endureth forever
It is very easy to give thanks when God keeps blessing you and all is well with you.
However, when all looks bleak and all your efforts are frustrated, it is very difficult to thank God.
The verse above says:
Make it a habit to give thanks to the Lord always because He is good and His mercy or kindness lasts forever.
Psalm 100:4 directs us to enter the gates of God with thanksgiving. That is, even if we think there is nothing to praise God for, just thank Him for His goodness and as you do this you “enter His gates” or get closer to Him.
1Thessalonians 5:18
In everything give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you
In this verse above, we are asked to give thanks in everything. When we are in good times we thank Him for the blessings He has showered on us and in bad times thank Him for the victory He will give us.
God be with you
How can I apply the word to my life?
1. Make it a habit to thank God every morning for the gift of another day and every evening for His goodness throughout the day.
Prayer
Let this song be your confession:
In all things we give you thanks
We give praise and thanksgiving
Offer thanks for everything
We give praise, we give you praise.
Amen
