Thanksgiving


I hope you develop the habit of giving thanks more after reading today's word.
Thanksgiving-Psalm 95vs1-6, Colossians 3vs16
   Thanking God should be an habitual thing for you and I. A thankful heart will experience a thankful of blessings and it takes a genuine thanksgiving to experience total blessings, deliverance, breakthrough, healing, miracles and many more.like the story of the ten lepers in Luke 17vs11-19, the one that came back to say thank you received total healing.
   There are many ways to give thanks to God
* Prayer: prayer changes things (John 11vs39-44). It makes the impossible possible. It can turn a situation around in your favor (Philippians 4vs6, Colossians 4vs2, 1 Thessalonians 5vs16-18).
* Testimony (Revelation 12vs11, Luke 8vs39). Testimony shared is a blessing recovered and made permanent (Matthew 9vs27-31). Do not be ashamed to testify to the goodness of God in your life (Mark 8vs38).
* Praise and Worship (Psalm 150vs1-6). When you pray, God acts but when you praise, God moves (Zephaniah 3vs17). Praising God means we you are acknowledging his name, we are showing gratitude for what he has done for us (Hebrews 13vs15). If we don't acknowledge God, we are flotsam in the universe. Have you ever praise God before and feel goose bumps(goose pimples) on your skin? that is "deep praise". 
   You don't have to wait for God to do something specific for you before you give him thanks. Being alive to see a new day is a reason, you don't have shoes! someone out there is wishing for even one leg.
   You need other reasons to give thanks? Psalm 117 is a pointer. You've lost something, God is the reason you've not lost all so he deserves your, my thanks (Psalm 30vs11-12, Psalm 146vs1-2). 
   Worship is the thank you that refused to be silenced, it is the thank you offered by the saved to the savior. This should be done in truth and in spirit (John 4vs23-24) so why not give God your best worship today and see if he won't open the windows of heaven and pour out his unlimited blessings upon you.
   We are created to make his praise glorious, so give God your highest praise, do for him what he can not do for himself 'cos God inhabit the praises of his people and we are his people (1 Peter 2vs9).
   You can praise God anytime of the day,anywhere. Praise him in the morning, noon time, in the night even in your dreams. You can praise him in your bedroom, place of work, kitchen even in your bathroom, he is everywhere you know.
   A closed mouth is a closed destiny so why not open your mouth and pray, testify and give God your best praise today and I pray that God will bless you in a way that you will never recover from his blessings (Amen). Have you thanked God today? Good morning house. -Tomi (HoD intl.)‎
