THANKS FOR EVERYTHING ELSE !

1Thessalonians 5:18 In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you.


SO OFTEN WE CAN FIND THE THINGS IN OUR LIVES THAT ARE NOT QUITE THE WAY WE WOULD LIKE THEM TO BE.

OUR FINANCES, OUR FAMILIES, OUR JOBS, OUR HOUSES, OUR FRIENDS, OUR CLOTHES, OUR BODIES, OUR LOOKS, AND THE LIST CAN GO ON AND ON, AND ON.

SATAN, THE ACCUSER LOVES TO HAVE US LOOK AT THE NEGATIVE, AND NEVER THE POSITIVES.

HIS OBJECTIVE IS TO KEEP US CONSTANTLY DISSATISFIED, THAT WE WOULD EVER BE COMPLAINING, THEREBY NEVER FINDING TIME TO BE THANKFUL FOR THE MYRIAD OF BLESSINGS DIRECTLY IN FRONT OF US.

WITH A MINIMUM OF EFFORT WE COULD JUST AS EASILY COMPILE A LIST OF BLESSINGS, AND CAUSES FOR THANKS IF ONLY OUR OUTLOOK ON LIFE AND BLESSINGS WERE CHANGED.

IF WE COULD GET BEYOND THAT EASILY BESETTING SIN OF PRIDE, AND THINKING WE DESERVE TO BE TREATED BETTER OR WE DESERVE TO HAVE MORE, OUR VISION WOULDN'T BE SO SKEWED.

WITH TRANSFORMED MINDS, AND BROKEN AND CONTRITE HEARTS, WE LEARN TO AS PAUL STATES "IN EVERYTHING GIVE THANKS".

ONCE WE HAVE TRULY ENDURED THROUGH GOD'S PROCESS, OR THE WRINGER AS I AFFECTIONATELY REFER TO THE PROCESS, WE WILL GENUINELY REALIZE JUST HOW MUCH WE ARE BLESSED, AND GIVING THANKS SHOULD BECOME SECOND NATURE TO US !

LET'S NOT WAIT UNTIL THE CALENDER INFORMS US OF A DAY OF THANKS, BECAUSE AS CHILDREN OF GOD, EVERYONE OF OUR DAYS SHOULD BE THANKSGIVING DAYS, AS WELL AS NIGHTS !



2DAYS PROPHETIC ADMONISHMENT: BROTHERS AND SISTERS IF WE FORGET EVERYTHING ELSE, LET'S NEVER FORGET THAT EVEN THOUGH WE MAY NEVER GET ALL WE DESIRE, WE DEFINITELY HAVEN'T RECEIVED ALL WE'VE DESERVED.

THAT IN IT'S SELF IS REASON ENOUGH TO GIVE THANKS FOR EVERYTHING ELSE !






I PRAY GOD'S PEACE N MERCY B UPON U AND URS !
