John 10:10
(10) Life is meant to be enjoyed, not endured.
1 Thessalonians 5:18
(18) Have a winning attitude, a attitude of thanksgiving. We give thanks to the Lord because He is good and He can turn bad situations around.
Psalms 107:1
(1) Give thanks in Him, not only to Him for the good things.
Learn to focus on the things we already have, not envy what others have that we don’t.
Instead of complaining of a bad boss, thank God for having a job.
We’re imperfect. Don’t focus on others’ fault as we’re not perfect too.
Give thanks and appreciate the people around us for God loved us at our worst and our best.
John 6:1 - 11
(11) Jesus gave thanks for the 5 loaves and the 2 fishes while Andrew saw the same, and despised it. Give thanks and God will multiply it and good things will happen to you.
John 6:23
(23) It’s a great miracle where the many people had food and 12 baskets left over but The Holy Spirit is happier that we give thanks for it.
We don’t receive anything from God because of our works but by His grace so we are grateful to Him and give thanks to Him.
Ephesians 5:18 - 20
(18) Be filled with the spirit and give thanks to the Lord and we’ll break out of our oppressions and problems.
Your miracle is preceded by thanksgiving.
John 11:39 - 44
(41) An attitude of thanksgiving before the miracle.
Christ lives in us, so God hears and helps with our problems like He helps His son. Be conscious of that truth and He empowers us to do great things.
Giving thanks is a proclamation and declaration of our faith in Him.
Luke 17:11 - 19
(19) God sees our faith in Him when we give thanks.
Ask god for wisdom and revelation for what He has done for us. God has forgiven us, don’t ask for forgiveness, thank Him for forgiving us. Same for blessing us, never leaving and foresaking us.
When you pray, believe that you have received it then you shall have it. Command your problems to go and disregard the symptoms and situation, but believe God’s truth shall pevail.
By His stripes, we have been healed. Jesus has done it all and we have received it so reinforce your belief and faith that He has done it by giving thanks to Him.
1 Timothy 4:4
(4) Appreciating and giving thanks blesses the person or situation. Don’t look at the negatives only, focus on the positive that God he has given and bless you, and His ever abounding, everlasting love for us.
The people around us are precious. Spend time loving and appreciating them as they won’t be with us forever. Don’t live a life of regrets once they’re gone.
Money spent loving others leaves a good memory forever, so give thanks to God for what we has given us freely.
Philemon 6:6
1 Corinthians 15:57
(57) Victory through Jesus Christ is a gift He gives to us, so we can give thanks for He is good.
God is for us, and He is with us, always. Believe and give thanks to Him, always.
