THE POWER OF THANKSGIVING

image

LISTEN TO AUDIO VERSION

Phil 4:6-7

6 Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. 7 And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.

NIV

Yesterday we read that one of the keys to experiencing the peace of God is not worrying but praying about everything. And in praying to God, we were instructed to do that with thanksgiving.                    

Now I want to show us how thanksgiving can move the hands of God in response to your prayers. Thanksgiving is an assurance of faith. A man that lives a life of thanksgiving has this understanding that God has made everything beautiful. Even in times of pain, he is still thanking God because of his believe on divine ordination. If God has ordained you a priest of the new covenant, sickness cannot change anything because whatever He says He will do, that He will do.                    

When Jesus lifted up the limited bread and fishes, he gave thanks. He was thanking God because he knew that at that point in time God has said he will provide. What are you seeing now in that condition; lack or impossibility? Pleas my friend begin to see answer to your prayers before you pray because God has already answered you beforehand and is waiting for you to key in with faith empowered by thanksgiving.                              

Go into today with a determination to live a life of thanksgiving. When you thank God for His finger you will see His hand.

Prayer: thank you father for making everything beautiful in my life according to your timing. I pray lord that you help me walk patiently with you as I see the unfolding of my answers. In Jesus name I pray. Amen
