775th -- Thank You Father

  

We should always be quick to lift up the Lord when we are tempted to worry
or fear over the negative situations that come our way. The Lord is to be
magnified above all things and our confidence in Him should be reflected 
by the actions we take in facing the negative reports that are presently 
before us. The Bible says in Hebrews 4:16 “Let us therefore come boldly 
unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help 
in time of need.” The Lord wishes to meet our needs, but we must call upon
Him and let God know of our needs while also giving thanks and praise for 
promising never to leave us nor forsake us. Be encouraged to have a 
thankful attitude to the Lord. Give thanks for everything that God has 
given to you. Do not wait to call upon Him only when you are in need, but 
rather when all is going well become one who gives praise and thanks for 
the good in your life. (Psalm 34:3-10) (Psalm 40:16-17) (1 Thessalonians 5:16-18)

I hope this message inspires and challenges your heart to be quick to give
God thanks. It is easy to murmur and complain when things go wrong, but 
if we change our attitude and call upon the Lord with our praises, our 
problems will soon seem minuscule.

Read and meditate on these scriptures:

Jeremiah 32:17-18 “Ah Lord GOD! behold, Thou hast made the heaven and the
earth by Thy great power and stretched out arm, and there is nothing too 
hard for Thee: Thou shewest lovingkindness unto thousands, and recompensest
the iniquity of the fathers into the bosom of their children after them: 
the Great, the Mighty God, the LORD of hosts, is His name.”

2 Chronicles 16:9 “For the eyes of the LORD run to and fro throughout the
whole earth, to shew Himself strong in the behalf of them whose heart is 
perfect toward Him...”

Romans 8:31-32 “What shall we then say to these things? If God be for us,
who can be against us? He that spared not His own Son, but delivered Him 
up for us all, how shall He not with Him also freely give us all things?”

Matthew 21:21-22 Jesus says,
“...Verily I say unto you, If ye have faith, 
and doubt not, ye shall not only do this which is done to the fig tree, but
also if ye shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast
into the sea; it shall be done. And all things, whatsoever ye shall ask in
prayer, believing, ye shall receive.”


All of these scriptures can be found in the King James Version Bible.
