IT'S THANKSGIVING.

SUNDAY, 14TH DECEMBER.
-Pastor Chris

And out of them shall proceed thanksgiving and the voice of them that make merry: and I will multiply them, and they shall not be few; I will also glorify them, and they shall not be small (Jeremiah 30:19).

If you look into your life and the receding year in retrospect, you’d find that the Lord has been so gracious and kind; His love, mercy and grace have seen us through a very remarkable year.
Therefore, in celebrating all that He’s done for you, there’re four important things to do in your gratitude and appreciation.
The first is the prayer of thanksgiving: Pray a prayer of thanksgiving from your heart to the Lord today, appreciating Him for a most
successful year. As you pray, express yourself in
thanksgiving; let it flow freely from your heart.
Secondly, offer Him the worship and praise of
thanksgiving. There’s a prayer of thanksgiving,
and there’s also a worship of thanksgiving,
where you’re full of praise, exuberant and
ecstatic with praise from your spirit.
The third is your testimony of thanksgiving,
where you tell of what He’s done in your life.
Here, you’re not thinking about what you
seemingly “didn’t get” or the goal you set to
achieve by the end of the year that didn’t quite
pull through; rather, you’re grateful for the joy
of the Lord that’s in your heart. You’re thankful
for the foundation of your spirit; the foundation
of faith that God gave you! You’re thankful for
the hope in your spirit. There’re people who are
never hopeful for the future, but God gave you
hope. So, testify in thanksgiving of these and
other blessings of God in your life.
The fourth is to give an offering in thanksgiving.
Give the Lord a special thanksgiving offering
today, and project yourself into the greater
future He’s planned for you. Make your mark
today in thanking Him specially, and let the
whole day be full of joy for you. Carry the
atmosphere of thanksgiving with you home from
the Church.
At designated times of the day, have praise and
thanksgiving sessions on your own, or with your
family. Make it an entire day of praise and
thanksgiving, because you’re grateful for all that
Christ is to you, and has accomplished on your
behalf.

PRAYER:
Dear heavenly Father, I thank you for receiving
my worship, praise and thanksgiving, sanctifying
them by your Spirit. You’re magnified in my life,
and your glory has increased in my life. Thank
you for an outstanding 2014, and for your
grace that’s piloting me into the great future
you have for me, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

FURTHER STUDY:
Psalm 141:2 Let my prayer be set forth before
thee as incense; and the lifting up of my hands
as the evening sacrifice.
Psalm 147:7-13 Sing unto the LORD with
thanksgiving; sing praise upon the harp unto
our God: 8 Who covereth the heaven with
clouds, who prepareth rain for the earth, who
maketh grass to grow upon the mountains. 9 He
giveth to the beast his food, andto the young
ravens which cry. 10 He delighteth not in the
strength of the horse: he taketh not pleasure in
the legs of a man. 11 The LORD taketh pleasure
in them that fear him, in those that hope in his
mercy. 12 Praise the LORD, O Jerusalem; praise
thy God, O Zion. 13 For he hath strengthened
the bars of thy gates; he hath blessed thy
children within thee.
Psalm 107:21-22 Oh that men would praise the
LORD for his goodness, and for his wonderful
works to the children of men! 22 And let them
sacrifice the sacrifices of thanksgiving, and
declare his works with rejoicing.
