Good
Morning!
We have been talking about keeping our prayer life "simple", and about
the fact that there are different kinds of prayer.
We discussed the prayer of supplication/petition, (asking God to do
something for us), and this is the one that is probably used the most . . . . .
but there is so much more that should be included in our
"communication" with The Lord.
Today, let's look at the prayer of "thanksgiving". This is a way to
talk to Him that can be done at anytime, all the time, and anywhere! Every time
something good happens to us, we can tell The Lord, "Thank you!".
Even when we find ourselves in a "not-so-good" situation, we can thank
Him for being there with us and delivering us out of it.
1 Thessalonians 5:18(Amp.) tells us to thank God "in" everything, no
matter what the circumstances may be . . . . . . . Read this and notice that it does
not say to thank him "for" everything bad that happens. This
is called "rightly dividing the Word of Truth" (2Timothy 2:15).
No matter what is going on in your life, you can find something to be thankful
for. You can start every morning, when you wake up . . . . . thank Him
that you are alive and breathing, and that He has given you another day to be a
blessing to somebody else!
This is how we come into His presence . . . . . "enter into His gates with
thanksgiving" . . . . . . . Psalms 100:4.
We need to continually have an attitude of gratitude!!
