Pray with thankfulness


IOI CHRISTIAN MORNING MEAL

TOPIC: Pray with thankfulness

Paul never fails to mention it.
Ephesians 5:20 tells us that thanksgiving is the natural result of being filled with and walking under the influence of the Holy Spirit.
Philippians 4:6 tells us to be anxious for nothing but in everything we should pray, giving thanks as we make our petitions known to God.
1 Thessalonians 5:18 tells us that giving thanks at all times is God's will for us in Christ Jesus.
Colossians 3:17 says that as believers everything we say or do should be done in the name of the Lord Jesus as we give thanks to Him.
1 Timothy 4:4 - says that food and marriage are good things given to us by God and are to be received with thanksgiving and gratitude.
Expressing gratitude does several things:
It articulates dependence
It demonstrates relationship
It communicates gratitude - proper attitudes
It generates humility

That you are alive today is by God's grace and not your own making. All God required of you is to give thanks

LET US PRAY
In Jesus Name this week will be a week of your best testimony

Share this meal
Good morning friends
