ALWAYS GIVE THANKS

-

Psalm 54:6

I will freely sacrifice unto thee: I will praise thy name, O LORD; for [it is] good.


For me, each morning I wake I give God thanks for life. For I know that everything else would only matter when I am alive. Selah


Beyond every excuse you could give, GIVE THANKS. For the evidence of your faith is not just when everything seems okay, but when the storms are raging. It could be easy to praise and worship when there is no challenge or struggle but the real test of your faith is praising Him when people expect you to be down.


Beyond all the prayer requests and scare of enemies, David understood that we give thanks for it is good and God is good.


He made the declaration of thanksgiving even in the midst of threats and danger to his life:


Psalms 54:1-3

Come with great power, O God, and rescue me! Defend me with your might. Listen to my prayer, O God. Pay attention to my plea. For strangers are attacking me; violent people are trying to kill me.

They care nothing for God.


Yet He ended in praise to the Heavenly Father, this is faith.


WHAT CAN STOP YOUR PRAISE, YOUR WORSHIP, YOUR THANKSGIVING?


Remember:


Romans 8:37-39

No, despite all these things, overwhelming victory is ours through Christ, who loved us.

And I am convinced that nothing can ever separate us from God’s love. Neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither our fears for today nor our worries about tomorrow—not even the powers of hell can separate us from God’s love.

No power in the sky above or in the earth below—indeed, nothing in all creation will ever be able to separate us from the love of God that is revealed in Christ Jesus our Lord.


They will dare to gather and plot but God says it is not from ...


Listen:


Isaiah 54:15&17

If any nation comes to fight you, it is not because I sent them. Whoever attacks you will go down in defeat.

But in that coming day no weapon turned against you will succeed. You will silence every voice raised up to accuse you. These benefits are enjoyed by the servants of the Lord; their vindication will come from me. I, the Lord, have spoken!


This prophecy is fulfilled for us in Christ Jesus. Glory.


Thank You Heavenly Father for all You do for me Your praise will forever be in my heart and on my lips. Thank You Good Lord. Glory to Your name Lord forevermore.


We are victorious.


Love

@the watcher.

GOOD LIKE YOUR FATHER

-
Genesis 1:31 Then God looked over all he had made, and he saw that it was very good! And evening passed and morning came, marking the sixth day. There is one thing we must have in mind, "it is the desire of our Heavenly Father that we should be like Him". He is good and He expects us to be good, we follow in His good nature. One of the attributes of the Heavenly Father's goodness is in the perfection of His work. What can be said of your works? Listen, the Psalmist sang: Psalms 118:23 This is the Lord’s doing, and it is wonderful to see. Look at those who walked with the Heavenly Father in scriptures, their works were wonderful to behold, is it when they worked in spiritual positions, Joseph and Daniel in interpretation of dreams and giving wise counsel; or the prophets when they delivered God's message or did miracles. Their works were commendable when they were in political positions, Joseph and Daniel are still very good examples, no blemish was found in their work...

OUR GIVING

-
John 12:3 Then took Mary a pound of ointment of spikenard, very costly, and anointed the feet of Jesus, and wiped his feet with her hair: and the house was filled with the odour of the ointment. What exactly have we sacrificed for Christ? We talk of all His goodness, love and unmerited favour, how have we shown appreciation for the grace He has given us? Do we really know what the Lord has done for us? Psalm 139:17-18 How precious also are thy thoughts unto me, O God! how great is the sum of them!  [If] I should count them, they are more in number than the sand: when I awake, I am still with thee. Psalm 30:12 To the end that [my] glory may sing praise to thee, and not be silent. O LORD my God, I will give thanks unto thee for ever. People ask, Christ is not physically here with us, how can I pour my precious oil on Him? This is what He said: Matthew 25:40 And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done [it] unto one of the least of these...

NEVER TAKE REVENGE!

-
Romans 12:19 Dear friends, never take revenge. Leave that to the righteous anger of God. For the Scriptures say, “I will take revenge;I will pay them back,” says the lord. Offences would surely come as we continue our journey here on earth. One thing we must learn to do is never to act when we are angry. Almost one hundred percent of the time, if we reflect on it, we find that we regret our actions. It is not that we do not get angry, the bible teaches that even when we do, it should not lead us to sin. Ephesians 4:26 Be ye angry, and sin not: let not the sun go down upon your wrath: If an enemy hurts us, well what do we expect from an enemy. However betrayal is when a friend intentionally hurts us. Check it! What makes us think it is intentional? So better to talk about it than be silent! Luke 17:3 Take heed to yourselves: If thy brother trespass against thee, rebuke him; and if he repent, forgive him. If it hurts, then talk about it, it is always a wonder what we discover when we tal...
