Do you know that the breathe of God doesn't just give life to that which is
dead or dying?
ππΌWell, if that's you, I'm pleased to tell you that, it does much more.πͺπ»
ππΌ
For starters, it also makes ways where there is no way.
ππΌIt makes a way, in places or situations we have concluded as a dead end.
ππΌ
With just a blast of His nostrils, the red sea was
pathed. ( *Exo 15:8 KJV*
And with the blast of thy nostrils the waters were gathered together, the floods stood upright as an heap, and the depths were congealed in the heart of the sea.)

*Romans 1:21 NIV*
βAlthough they knew God, they neither glorified him as God nor gave thanks to himβ ππΌ
One of the Bibleβs indictments against rebellious humanity is that ππΌ
An ungrateful heart is a heart that is cold toward God
and indifferent to His mercy and love.
ππΌIt is a heart that has forgotten how dependent we are on God for everything.
Let's change that narrativeππΌ
*let's dedicate every free moment we have today to thanking God*
ππΌHis blessings has never ceased
ππΌHis mercies ceaseth not.
ππΌHis Favour, He has never withdrawn.
ππΌHis covering over you has been constant.
ππΌHe has never denied you access to Him.
ππΌHe is more than willing to do more, if you raise the Thanksgiving bar.
ππΌlook on the bright side...you have everything to gain thanking Him.ππΌ
*Psalms 116v12 TPT*
So now, what can I ever give back to God
to repay him for the blessings Heβs *poured* out on me? ( *Note* , POURED out & not GIVEN out)
ππ½ *Good question indeed*
*
Psalms 116:12 MSG*
What can I give back to God for the blessings He's poured out on me?
ππ½ *Good question again*
*Psalm 116:12 AMP*
What shall I render to the Lord for all His benefits toward me? [How can I repay Him for all His bountiful dealings?]
ππ½Another good question
ππΌ *Answer 1* - Nothing physical
ππΌ *Answer 2* - *Psalm 116:17 KJV*
I will offer to thee the sacrifice of thanksgiving, and will call upon the name of the Lord.
ππΌ *Answer 3- Psalms 116v13 TPT*
I will lift up his cup of salvation *and praise him extravagantly.*
Psalm 68:19 KJV
Blessed be the Lord, who daily loadeth us with benefits, even the God of our salvation. Selah. ( *He doesn't give in measurable* *quantities...He* *loads* *us* )
ππΌ
*1* . A man who does not give thanks will never make progress.
*2* . Thanksgiving unexpressed is Thanksgiving unappreciated.
*3* . Never assume God knows you are grateful.. Express it.
*4* . Thanksgiving must be deliberately cultivated.
*5* . Thanksgiving is an application for more.
ππΌ
You have enjoyed numerous benefits...infact, too numerous to count.
*Job 5:9 NIV*
He performs wonders that cannot be fathomed, *miracles that cannot be counted.*
ππΌ
*Make day 3 very intentional too.*
ππΌ
Psalms 31v21 KJV
Blessed be the Lord: for He hath shewed me His *marvellous kindness* in a strong city.
ππΌ
*1* . We therefore, cannot afford to give the one who's been showing us kindness, Thanksgiving
in moderation.
*2* . The way we show Him appreciation, can trigger more from the same source.
*3* . Many are grounded today because, they take for granted the little mercies of God.
*4* . Not to give glory to God is to cut short the supplies
*5* . Thanksgiving is what
qualifies you for the next act of favor.
ππΌ
I trust you've enjoyed God's kindness in the past, when you were in the most awkward situation... where you knew no one could help but God.

*Make day 2 very intentional* .
*Make Thanksgiving today very intentional and you will see
