THEME:
Do You Have The Keys? IV.
MEMORY VERSE:
“And when ye will offer a sacrifice of thanksgiving unto the LORD, offer it at your own will.”
Leviticus 22:29.
TODAY’S TEXT:
2 Chronicles 7:5.
“And king Solomon offered a sacrifice of twenty and two thousand oxen, and a hundred and twenty thousand sheep: so the king and all the people dedicated the house of God.”
TODAY’S MESSAGE:
In the last part of this series, we considered prayers, as one of the keys to succeeds as a Christian. The scripture further admonished us to thus: *”Pray without ceasing.”* (1 Thessalonians 5:17)
Meanwhile, we will take a step further and consider gratitude, what is Gratitude? Is it simply the quality of being thankful; readiness to show appreciation for and to return kindness. A case of Solomon’s Twenty-two thousand sacrifice is that of gratitude to God for making him king after his father.
Nevertheless, our memory verse says, your gratitude must be of free will, that’s not coaxed to appreciate good deeds done to you. And an African adage says, *”A grateful heart, surely deserves another.”* Beloved, as people helped you in a way, don’t be too lazy to show gratitude, your gratitude will prompt another good deed to come your way and by so doing, you will climb higher the ladder of success.
In conclusion, 2 Corinthians 9:7 says, “Every man according as he purposes in his heart, so let him give; not grudgingly, or of necessity: for God loves a cheerful giver.” Cheerfully give thanks to God and people, and you will be glad you do so. Shalom!
God bless you.
Till He returns or calls you home, do remain in the power of Jesus love.
*Jesus is coming very soon.*
Be prepared.
DAILY CONFESSION:
I will forever be grateful to God. And I will not fail to appreciate my benefactors.
PRAYER POINT:
Almighty Father, creator of all things; seen and unseen. I come today to say Thank you for Who You are and for all You have done for me. Help me Lord, not to fail in giving thanks to You all the days of my life in Jesus name. Amen.
Yours in Christ,
