THANK YOU

 
 
1 Thessalonians 5:18


"Give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus." NIV


"In everything give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you." KJV


We thank You Lord for the greatest gift of love, salvation through Jesus Christ. We thank You for being the God who never changes, who has all power and all glory. We thank You Father for allowing us to have all the things we need and many of the things we just want. We thank You for loved ones and the joy of fellowship. We thank You for protection from the difficult weather and dangers of this world. We thank You God when sickness strikes, You are there with Your healing balm to get us through. We thank You that when sickness or situations take our loved ones from us, You are there to comfort us and give us hope that we will one day see them again. We thank You Father that when financial crises come our way, it opens the door for You to show Your grace and mercy to provide for us. We thank You Lord, that the Holy Spirit brings us peace and comfort when relationships are bad. We give thanks that You help us to humble ourselves and seek to make things right. We thank You for the beautiful gift of nature that speaks of Your awesomeness. God, we can't thank You enough FOR all the blessings and IN all the troubles; they are too numerous to recall. Most of all, we thank You for being the One true God, eternal love, who concerns Himself with each one of us in all things we experience in this world.


Heavenly Father, we give You thanks in spite of the bad and for all the good. Help us to always have hearts of thanksgiving, not just today, but every moment of every day for ever. We pray in Jesus' name, Amen.

TELL GOD WHAT YOU NEED

 
Philippians 4:6
 
"Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God." NIV
 
"Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God." KJV
 
How many times have we found ourselves minutes, hours, or even days into worrying about a matter before we realize we have been wasting precious energy on anxiety? At the moment an anxious thought, or troubling situation arises, we can go directly to the throne of grace and let our God know about it. He will comfort us and give us peace, so we will know He is taking care of it for us. After all, He is in control of all things, and nothing is impossible for Him.
 
Heavenly Father, forgive us for worrying and fretting over things. Help us to come instantly to You when we become anxious about a matter. Increase our faith as we seek You to take care of those things that bother us and keep us upset. We praise You for Your peace and comfort You lavishly pour out on us when we come to You. In Jesus' name we pray, Amen.

DO ALL FOR HIS GLORY




Remember that everything we say or do is as if it were done directly
to the Lord. Knowing that, we strive to honor Him in all we say and
do. And we are thankful to Him for giving us the grace and strength
to be able to Honor Him this way.

Read Colossians 3:17

"And whatever you do, whether in word or deed, do it all in the name
of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through Him." (NIV)

"And whatsoever ye do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord
Jesus, giving thanks to God and the Father by him." (KJV)
