Give Thanks

TOPIC
Give Thanks

LIVING SCRIPTURE
1 Thessalonians 5:18 KJV
In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you.





It is a good thing to give thanks unto the LORD as an expression of gratitude for the visible and invisible works. Thanksgiving is one of the actions that man cannot over render unto God, if possible our daily statements should be surrounded with thanksgiving. When we show our love and appreciation unto the LORD, we truly reveal the state of our hearts, which is where God does His business with. A man that cannot appreciate the LORD cannot truly appreciate men though he appear grateful but the statements of the heart says otherwise.

When is the right time to give thanks? One may ponder! When we are expectant alone? Or when we receive good tidings and gifts? These seasons are all good times to show appreciation but we must recognize also that in mourning we should give thanks, in little, in seemingly unfavorable times, in dryness and all circumstances of life. Looking at brother Job as a case study this morning; we see a man who's ways pleased the LORD, he was full of thanks unto God in good times and also when the devil came destructively, with the aim of killing his thanksgiving spirit. The devil failed because Job's spirit and heart of thanksgiving was not rooted to material and carnal things but in the love of God shared upon an unworthy man that found favor in the sight of God. (Study the book of Job carefully)


On what is your thanks giving rooted or built upon? Find expression this morning with Christ Jesus by building your thanksgiving on His unfailing love and words. Don't let the devil take the upper hand over you by ignorance, your joy is not tied to a husband or wife or children or job, business or career! Your joy is to be bounded in the love of God, wherein you give thanks for the privilege of having a family, spouse, children, jobs and more.



TO-DO
Give Thanks always....

PRAYER
✓Heavenly Father I thank you for your love and care upon my life, family and nation.

✓Thank you for the knowledge of an expression of Thanksgiving bound by your love, help me build my thanksgiving spirit by your Spirit and words.

✓I overcome the devil this morning by the insight of God I have received this morning, thank you Jesus.

The Narrow Path

DATE : September 12, 2021 TOPIC : The Narrow Path BIBLE TEXT: Matthew 7v13&14 – Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in there at: Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it. The road to eternity is a narrow path, with a single choice. There are no alternatives into eternity. It is either you walk through the narrow way into heaven or you follow the broad path that leads men (souls) to hell fire. God sent His only Son to die for mankind, creating the way, the truth and the life, to all who believe in Christ Jesus. It is either you make a choice to follow Jesus or you walk straight into hell. Many are searching for this path in the wrong direction, places, traditions, customs, beliefs and religions but cannot find it there. Only those that hear about the Kingdom of Heaven coming soon and believe in Jesus Christ shal...

IT RUBS OFF

AUGUST 9th - CAPSULE 9 TOPIC: IT RUBS OFF BIBLE TEXT: Exodus 34 vs. 29 – His face glowed from being in the presence of God. You can only talk convincingly about the God you know, the one you’ve spent time with. Any other God belongs in a theology book, and you will have a hard time selling Him. When Moses came down from the mountain, his face shone. He had been in God’s presence, and when you’ve been there it shows in the way you look, the way you walk and talk, the way you treat your family, the way you spend your money and the way you respond to hurting people. It rubs off!   Paul Cain says “most of us are as close to God as we want to be”. Think about it “Draw nigh to God, and He will draw nigh to you” (James 4 vs. 8). How could you possibly be the same when you’ve been with Him? He transforms everything He touches. Listen – He that dwelleth in the secret place of the Most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty” (Psalm 91 vs. 1). He didn’t say “visit” or...

The Good Slow

DATE 📅 19th September, 2022 TOPIC The Good Slow LIVING SCRIPTURE Habakkuk 2:3 KJV For the vision is yet for an appointed time, but at the end it shall speak, and not lie: though it tarry, wait for it; because it will surely come, it will not tarry. A mango tree starts from a seed planted in the soil, from a mango fruit. It usually takes weeks or sometimes days for the leaves to grow or sprout and then it takes years before it can produce those edible mango fruits which we all like to chew. Likewise a young child cannot start behaving like a grown man or handling responsibilities automatically. Just like the fruits that once started as a seed, so is the LORD'S work everyday for His children if only we believe that it is settled. To tarry is to delay a thing or a matter, but the Lord said, it will surely come to pass it will no longer delay. Sometimes we experience the tarrying process and many think God is slow and not responsive to their needs. Many seek out alternati...
