THE WAY OF FAITH
“Giving thanks always for all things unto God and the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ”
Ephesians 5:20 (Webster’s Bible Translation)
Thanksgiving is essential in our walk of faith.
A thankful heart is a faithful heart.
Thanksgiving is not just our response to what God has done. Thanksgiving is also part of honoring God.
There are some who have no clue of the details of giving thanks to God.
The thing is, as simple as thanksgiving or gratitude seems to be, it doesn’t come to people naturally. One has to be intentional to live a life of gratitude.
To show gratitude is an attitude of gratefulness.
An attitude of gratefulness towards God is dependent on how valuable God is to you. It is not first about what God has done for you, but who He is to you and how you honor Him.
The knowledge of who God is will definitely bring to light the reality of His lovingkindness.
“Throughout human history the fingerprints of God were upon them, yet they refused to honor him as God or even be thankful for his kindness…” Romans 1:21 (TPT).
The more you fail to recognize who God is and be thankful for His lovingkindness, the more you expose your mind to corrupt thoughts.
When you fail to see God’s goodness in your life, you will only entertain thoughts of defeat, discontentment, failure and disappointment.
See the latter part of Romans 1:21, “…Instead, they entertained corrupt and foolish thoughts about what God was like. This left them with nothing but misguided hearts, steeped in moral darkness.” (TPT).
Thanksgiving or showing gratitude to God supplies guidance and light to your heart.
“Sincere gratitude is said to be the healthiest of all human emotions” Dr. Hans Selye (1907-82), Hungarian-Canadian endocrinologist.
Learn to practice thanksgiving.
We find our Lord Jesus showing us the way of thanksgiving. At different times we see the Lord being thankful for many things. Even before a miracle happens Jesus is already full of thanks and gratitude.
Jesus was full of praise or thanksgiving before He fed the 4000 (Mt 15:36) and the 5000 (Jn 6:11).
At the tomb of Lazarus, He gave thanks before raising him from the dead (Jn 11:41).
Even at the Passover meal, our Lord Jesus gave thanks before sharing wine and breaking bread (Lk 22:17-19).
Learn to express gratitude to God and the people around you. A grateful heart is attractive and peaceful.
The adversary doesn’t want you in that state. He wants you to look all stressed and troubled. And you know what, miracles don’t abound in that state.
David said, in Psalm 107,
“Let everyone give all their praise and thanks to the Lord! Here’s why—he’s better than anyone could ever imagine.
Yes, he’s always loving and kind, and his faithful love never ends.” (TPT).
The King James makes it simple:
“Give thanks to the Lord for He is good and His mercy endureth forever.”
This is the way of faith. How many times have you given thanks to God already?
Hallelujah!
