Why should I thank God even though I don't have a reason to thank him for?

The Bible teaches us to be grateful in all circumstances because it is God's will for us in Christ Jesus (1 Thessalonians 5:18). We can praise God for his constancy, for the fact that he never leaves or forsakes us, and for the promise of eternal life that he has given us through his Son, Jesus Christ.

We have everything because he gave it to us. That includes even us–our lives, our minds, and our bodies are all factors to consider. Our bodies are the temples of the Holy Spirit, according to Scripture (1 Corinthians 6:19). They aren't our bodies in the true sense. After all, verse 20 reveals to us that God bought us at a price.

God is the owner and the source of our existence. To be truly thankful, we must look beyond our current circumstances, whether they are blessings or challenges. He does not change; he is still the same God, whether or not things are going well (see Hebrew 13:8).

Even though it isn't Thanksgiving Day, we can benefit from it all year. According to the Bible, we should establish a constant line of communication with God, thanking Him for everything He does. Not only will this deepen your relationship with God, but you'll be more likely to find things to be grateful for if you're continually looking for them.

God reveals in order to redeem

The enemy you know is less persuasive than the enemy you don’t know. In most cases, God displays himself to us in dreams or in visions. So whenever God discloses it to you. He is warning you to take a step and to act upon what he revealed. One thing you should perceive is that your enemy is not your neighbor, sister, colleagues, etc. We only have one enemy, which is the devil. Satan is very manipulative and if you aren’t prayerful enough, you’ll end up falling in to his traps. The day you’ll understand, you’ll avoid despising them.

Warning from God: Take your calling very seriously!!!

Imagine the consequences if Jesus Christ had not embraced the mission on earth that he was given by the father (John 6:38). Imagine what could have happened to millions of souls. Consider what could have happened to the Israelites if Moses had never taken his calling seriously when God called him to deliver the Israelites from Egypt (Exodus 3:10). God has invested something in you, and it takes you to pray and discover what he has invested in you. Some of you God gave you the anointing of healing, but you aren’t even aware. Millions of souls are lost out there, and this situation requires you and me to take our calling very seriously. So many people are dying in hospitals from cancer, diabetes, and other diseases, while you are ignoring doing the will of the father, and you expect things to go well with you. Certainly, not everyone is destined for the same path, as God has assigned us various missions and duties. The key here is to discover your true identity. When you don't take ...

How to depend on Jesus

The things of this world cannot fill the empty space within us; only Christ can complete us. This embodies for us that we need Jesus more than anything else on this planet. God did not put us here to rely on ourselves, but to rely on him for everything. We can't survive without him, which is why the Bible cautions us not to rely on our own understanding, because our understanding can fail us and our hearts can lead us astray. Physically, we may appear to be capable of doing things on our own, but on the inside, we are slowly dying. I don’t know about you, but if you haven't yet accepted Jesus Christ as your personal Savior, it’s not too late. The Bible encourages us in Jeremiah 33:3 that if we call on God, he will answer us and tell us things we don't know. God is waiting for your call today. He is waiting for you to come to him and ask him to show you the way. Here is a short prayer to seek God: Heavenly Father, please forgive me for all of my transgressions against ...
