Greetings,
Have you recently thanked God for what He has already done for you? Did you know that gratitude is so important, it’s actually the first step to enter into His Presence!
Psalm 100:4 (NKJV) says, “Enter into His gates with thanksgiving, And into His courts with praise. Be thankful to Him, and bless His name.”
Gratitude is also the key for receiving even more of God’s generous blessings! Israel never seemed to learn this lesson. God not only delivered them from slavery, He brought them through the Red Sea—as if it was a paved highway, fed them manna from heaven, and supernaturally cared for them for 40 years. Yet, time and time again, they continued to complain until God finally said,
Deuteronomy 32:18 (NKJV) – “Of the Rock who begot you, you are unmindful, And have forgotten the God who fathered you.”
Had they been thankful, can you imagine how many additional blessings God would have showered upon them?
Father, we are so thankful for all You have ALREADY brought us through and the innumerable blessings you have ALREADY showered upon us! As the old song goes, “Through many dangers, toils and snares, I have already come.” It’s Your Grace that has brought us safe thus far.
Today, I’m worshiping with the Brooklyn Tabernacle Choir and “For Every Mountain.”
We love you and are praying for you. Be INSPIRED!
Pastor
