Thankful Praying

Nov18

Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God.
And the peace of God, which surpasses all comprehension, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.
Philippians 4:6-7 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/php.4.6-7.NASB1995

What a friend we have in Jesus. One so near who knows our wants and needs before we even open our mouths but listens anyway. I am so thankful He is only a breath away.
When I pour out my heart, He brings my heart to thankfulness. Thankful that He is big enough to handle the tears, fears, troubles and my confessions of sin. Thankful that He is a forgiving God and able to restore my heart and mind. Thankful for His peace and grace; forgiveness and restoration.

Anxiety replaced with peace.
Requests turned to thankful praise.
Yes, I am very thankful I have a friend in Jesus.

Continually Seeking Him,

Always Giving Thanks

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

How many times a day do you say ‘Thank you’?
Why do you think it’s God’s will for you to be thankful?

A heart filled with thanks will rejoice always. 1 Thessalonians 5:16
A heart filled with thanks will pray to God continually. 1 Thessalonians 5:17
A heart filled with thanksgiving will praise God. Psalms 7:17
A heart filled with thanks will be loving, giving, caring.
A heart filled with thanks will speak of the glory of God. Psalms 9:1

God uses thankful hearts. Are you thankful?

Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, to which indeed you were called in one body; and be thankful. Let the word of Christ richly dwell within you, with all wisdom teaching and admonishing one another with psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with thankfulness in your hearts to God. Whatever you do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks through Him to God the Father.
