TEXT: “In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you” (1Thess 5:18)
Thanksgiving to God pleases Him. It is not always easy to give thanks to God, especially when what you expect isn’t yet made manifest, but this is the very thing we must do in order to see God’s will accomplished in our lives this season. Thanksgiving is a practical demonstration of our faith in God. It has great power to bring joy and break the power of the enemy of our life.
Whenever we give thanks to God, despite the difficult situation we are experiencing, the enemy loses a big battle in our life. When we give thanks in the midst of difficulty, we bring pleasure to God’s heart. The truth is that God is looking for those who will live in the realm of thanksgiving where the enemy no longer has the ability to hold or manipulate them. Satan is defeated when we have a thankful heart because thanksgiving during difficulty is a sacrifice that is pleasing to God.
Are you grateful for your present life? Gratitude is a key to your future life. It is the key that turns your situation around because it changes you, your outlook, and your attitude.
PRAYER: I pray for you today that the spirit of gratitude that will cause a sudden change of story in your life is coming on you this season, in Jesus name!
