THANKFUL ATTITUDE

Psalm 100:4


"Enter His gates with thanksgiving and His courts with praise: give thanks to Him and praise His name." NIV

"Enter into his gates with thanksgiving, and into his courts with praise: be thankful unto him, and bless his name." KJV

How could we possibly get into the presence of God with critical, angry, resentful hearts? We cannot, because it is impossible. With this kind of attitude, there is only a sense of entitlement, superiority, and self-centeredness. If we search our hearts and let the Lord take all these things from our hearts, we can approach the throne of grace with a pure heart and total peace. The Lord Jesus Christ is worthy of this kind of praise and worship.

Heavenly Father, we ask for forgiveness for coming to You in prayer and worship when we have resentments and anger in our hearts. Help us to have clean hearts and let go of these things that separate us from You. We ask in Jesus' name, Amen.
