30 Days of Thanks – D1

Nov1

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

P.S. Feel free to share something you are thankful for so I may praise God with you.

God Is Awesome!

Oct20

Sing to the Lord a new song; Sing to the Lord, all the earth.
Sing to the Lord, bless His name; Proclaim good tidings of His salvation from day to day.
Tell of His glory among the nations, His wonderful deeds among all the peoples.
For great is the Lord and greatly to be praised; He is to be feared above all gods.
For all the gods of the peoples are idols, But the Lord made the heavens.
Splendor and majesty are before Him, Strength and beauty are in His sanctuary.
Psalms‬ ‭96:1‭-‬6‬ ‭NASB1995‬‬

My Hiding Place

How great is Your goodness, Which You have stored up for those who fear You, Which You have wrought for those who take refuge in You, Before the sons of men!

For in the day of trouble He will conceal me in His tabernacle (shelter); In the secret place of His tent He will hide me; He will lift me up on a rock.
And now my head will be lifted up above my enemies around me, And I will offer in His tent sacrifices with shouts (of shouts) of joy; I will sing, yes, I will sing praises to the Lord.
Psalms‬ ‭27:5‭-‬6‬ ‭NASB1995
