 THANKSGIVING: A National Holiday set aside to be celebrated with Thanksgiving, and Praise to God, for His manifold blessings; but to the Christian everyday is a day  of Thanksgiving.

Psalms 34:1 I will bless (thank)  the Lord at all times: His Praise shall continually be in my mouth.

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

We are thankful for His blessings, His provisions, His protection, and most of all for His Son, Jesus, who gave His life that we may live. We do not have to use a multiplicity of words when we Pray for the Lord to reveal to us His will for our lives. As we are thankful unto Him, and bless His name from a sincere heart, the Lord will speak, for He honors a humble, and a contrite spirit.

GOD’S WILL REVEALED: Bishop J.C. Gilkey, Sr. stated that he had remained in church one night after church was dismissed, and everyone had gone home, and there were only one or two lights on in the back. He did not know how to pray, and his prayer for about three hours was, “Thank You, Jesus, and Yes, Lord.” The Lord begin to speak to him. He opened his eyes, and looked at his hands, and kept saying “Thank You, Jesus, and Yes, Lord.” While he was praying, a mahogany shield trimmed in gold came down on a gold chain in front of him, and stopped. Five directives came up on the shield, with one being repeated:

1. Go preach the gospel.

2. Lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world.

3. Be meek, and humble.

4. He that believeth shall be saved, He that believeth not shall be damned.

5. Woe unto you if you preach not the gospel.

6. Be meek, and humble.

Therefore everyday for the Christian is a day of Thanksgiving, for the many blessings that He has given us, and we do not know when He may reveal to us His will.

“NOW LET US CONTINUE  TO BE THANKFUL DAILY, AS WE PRAY”.
