“But giving thanks is a sacrifice that truly honors me. If you keep to my path, I will reveal to you the salvation of God.” (Psalms 50:23 NLT)
- Do you know what God loves?
- He loves when His children give thanks!
- He says, “Giving thanks is a sacrifice that truly honors me.”
- Giving thanks is a reminder that without God’s help, you would have nothing to thank Him for.
- It’s not just saying with your mouth, “Thank You” but it’s an attitude of your heart.
- A heart full of Thankfulness is a heart that is overflowing with the goodness of God.
- The opposite of “Thankful” is ungrateful, unappreciative or entitled.
- No one wants to live like that but that’s what your heart will become if you forget to thank.
- The Message paraphrase puts it like this, “It’s the praising life that honors me.”
- Thankfulness leads you down a path that leads you to salvation.
- We need to make sure that we create the daily habit of giving thanks.
- Instead of waiting for the “giant” breakthrough to thank Him, begin thanking God for the 1000’s of small blessing that He gives you every day.
- Thank God for sunlight.
- Thank Him for each breath you take.
- Thank him for the people He has put in your life.
- Thank him for the grass & trees.
- Thank Him that you know how to tie your shoes.
- There are so many little moments that easily get overlooked.
- If you forget to thank, you will soon forget.
- So don’t forget!
- Remember, it says, “Giving thanks is a sacrifice that truly honors me”
- It’s a sacrifice, so it’s going to cost you something!
- Today, begin to thank Him with your mouth and let that thankfulness impact your heart and let it be reflected in your actions!
- God bless you!
- Have a great weekend!
