Thank God for the freedom to worship God publicly without restrictions!!
My hope is that if you are where you have the freedom to worship the God of all, that you do not neglect this freedom and attend a worship service today.

‭‭🌹Who is like You among the gods, O Lord? Who is like You, majestic in holiness, Awesome in praises, working wonders?
You will bring them and plant them in the mountain of Your inheritance, The place, O Lord, which You have made for Your dwelling, The sanctuary, O Lord, which Your hands have established.
The Lord shall reign forever and ever.” (Amen)

Yours, O Lord, is the greatness and the power and the glory and the victory and the majesty, indeed everything that is in the heavens and the earth; Yours is the dominion, O Lord, and You exalt Yourself as head over all.
Both riches and honor come from You, and You rule over all, and in Your hand is power and might; and it lies in Your hand to make great and to strengthen everyone.
Now therefore, our God, we thank You, and praise Your glorious name.

in everything give thanks; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus.
1 Thessalonians‬ ‭5:18‬ ‭NASB1995‬‬
https://bible.com/bible/100/1th.5.18.NASB1995

In EVERYTHING!!?!! Good days and BAD days? In trials and tribulations?
Yes, because we who are in Christ Jesus are being perfected each day. Our lives in tribulation; our hearts in the joy of the Lord! And yes because this is God’s will!

When things go awry – off the normal course, amiss – what is the typical response? Whatever the response I can guarantee that most responses will lack thankfulness.

What an awesome testimony to the confidence we have in God by being thankful. Giving thanks to our Lord God through it all. The good and the bad days of our lives.

This month of November I challenge you to make thankfulness your focus. Think of at least one thing each day of this month that you are thankful for. On November 30th look over your list and turn those thankful blessings into thankful praise to God!

🌹always giving thanks for all things in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ to God, even the Father;
Ephesians‬ ‭5:20‬ ‭NASB1995‬‬
