HEART OF THANKSGIVING

in #wafrica6 years ago (edited)

The art of Thanksgiving has over time not been fully expressed by people. One way to make our wishes accomplished in God is through Thanks giving.

When we thank God, we're moving into a higher realm of faith for ourselves and others.

The enemy usually puts an indifferent kind of attitude in us that makes us forget the blessings of God in our lives. Any thankful heart is usually a heart of joy.

Whenever we thank God irrespective of our most disturbing challenges, the enemy is woefully loosing a big battle in our various lives

"Be joyful always; pray continually; give thanks in all circumstances, for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus."

God is looking for Christians who can live in a realm of praise and Thanksgiving, ones who can praise him in any situation of live.

Offering Thanksgiving to God brings pleasure to his heart and provokes him to do more.

Commendation brings about more performance.

The devil gets frustrated each time we praise God, we defeat him the more when we thank God amidst our challenges.

Here's a quick question for you and I.. Are you thankful and grateful? Are you thankful for the blessings you've received?

Thankfulness is a key to your life.

The truth of the issue is that, there are a lot of things to be grateful for in life. The life you are living is a gift that should be praised, so many desired to have this life and never got it.

That we're most graced to enjoy this privilege is enough to offer our praises and Thanksgiving to God

Thanksgiving changes our personality and brings out the better part of you. There's power in a thankful heart

Thanksgiving Brings Contentment

Discontentment dries up the soul in the absence of Thanksgiving. Don't always dwell on the things you've not done or gotten from God. Look at the things you've been privileged to have in life and thank God for them already.

Here are ways that would help develop the attitude of Thanksgiving.

  • Thank and praise God for everything in your life. Thank Him for even the difficulties.
  • Don't allow yourself to complain about anything.

  • Don't compare yourself with others. Don't wish that your life was different.

I believe that when we inculcate all these things in our lives, we'd provoke God to settle other areas of our lives.

Our lives are made beautiful when we are thankful and God is happy when we appreciate and not complain.

I pray that we develop this gift as we walk through this journey of faith. God bless you all.
