MEMORY VERSE: Enter into his gates with thanksgiving, and into his courts
with praise: be thankful unto him, and bless his name.
Psalm 100:4
MEMORY VERSE: I will sing of the mercies of the LORD for ever: with my mouth
will I make known thy faithfulness to all generations.
FOR WHAT SHOULD WE THANK GOD?
1. His provisions – Gen.22:8; Gen.1:26-29.
2. His mercy – He was merciful to David, Zacheaus and the woman caught in adultery – Ps.103:8-14, 130:7-8; Micah 7:18-20.
3. His miracles and deliverance – Exo.14; 2 Kings 5:1-14.
4. His restoration of life and hope – Eze.37:1-7.
5. His almightiness – Gen.17:1.
6. His holiness and faithfulness – 1 Sam.2:2; Num.23:23; Heb.6:18.
7. His perfect love – 1 John 4:8.
The list of what to thank God for is inexhaustible. We must thank God for His mercy, miracles, deliverances, restoration, faithfulness, and love and because He is the Almighty. Ps.103:8-14; Ps.130:7-8; Mic.7:18-20, 2 Kgs.5:1-14; Ezek.37:1-7; 1 Sam.2:2; Heb.6:18; 1 Jn.4:8
SOME BENEFITS OF THANKSGIVING
If you will cultivate the habit of showing gratitude to God, you will compel Heaven to pay you a second visit or touch you and make you completely whole and seal your miracle with the assurance of salvation – Luke 17:11-19.
Thanksgiving has a lot of benefits. It opens your door to greater miracles. It is like receiving an open cheque. It brings to remembrance before God. It can reverse the irreversible. 1 Sam.17:32-37, 49-57; 2 Chr.1:1-12; Acts 10:1-4; John 11:41-44.
WHEN SHOULD WE OFFER THANKSGIVING?
1. When it is well with us – Ps.8:4-9.
2. When we are sick – 1 Thess.5:8.
3. When disappointed and we feel abandoned or rejected by God – Job 19:25.
4. When we are going through trials – Dan.3:17-18.
5. When being persecuted – Dan.6:10.
6. When experiencing delay – Lk.1:4-10.
DANGERS OF INGRATITUDE
1. Risk of losing the existing blessing, including salvation and Heaven.
2. Curse. Anyone who is ungrateful to God is wicked and under a curse – Pro.3:33.
3. Limiting ones blessings or answered prayers. Ingratitude is blocking the greater blessings of many believers today.
4. Emptiness and sorrow. It makes restoration practically difficult.
5. Ingratitude makes you the worst enemy of God. ./.
