Enter into his gates with thanksgiving, and into his courts with praise: be thankful unto him, and bless his name (Psalm 100:4)
Around this time every year, we come together to specially thank God for the glorious year He has given us. Your thanksgiving therefore should be heartfelt and specific. Before you go to Church today, take out time to remember every month of the year one by one and mention in a diary or paper all the wonderful testimonies you had in your life this year. Take it to the Church with you and thank the Lord for each of them. Give glory to God in the presence of all your brethren. He deserves your glorious, magnificent and specific thanksgiving!
Remember, today is one of the most important services of the year. Be on time, and be excited. Though, thanksgiving is not limited to just a day, when we thank the Lord for specific reasons, coming together like this, it pleases God.
Don’t let this day, just pass by for you like any other day, let it count. Make sure you come in your best attire for the Church, prepare your best to give as your thanksgiving offering, make sure you come forward and testify of all the wondrous works He has done for you in this year so far. Never hesitate to testify, the words of your testimony are words of thanksgiving to God. If God was not ashamed to answer your prayer, and to reward your faith, don’t be ashamed or hesitant to acknowledge Him and His faithfulness. Prepare well, because it’s thanksgiving!
Praise:
Precious Father, you are my all in all. You have lifted me, and exalted me. Your love is so pure, it is ever flowing, for your great love my Father, I honor you in my life every day. You mean more than the world to me. I glorify your Name!
