We are to give thanks for everything.

YES, EVERYTHING!

It’s God’s will.

Happy Thanksgiving!

II Thessalonians 5:18 (KJV) – in every thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you.

There’s always a time to give.

But if you hear the poor cry out and do nothing, your cries won’t be heard when you need it.

And believe me, one day you will be in need.

So give.

Proverbs 21:13 (KJV) – whoso stoppeth his ears at the cry of the poor, he also shall cry himself, but shall not be heard.

Loving with all your being is more than just with your heart.

You are to love God with all your being.

Mark 12:30 (KJV) – and thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength: this is the first commandment.

Idols have hands but can’t feel, eyes but can’t see, ears but can’t hear and mouths but can’t talk.

You realize that’s worshiping something dead that can’t do nothing for you.

Psalm 135: 15-17 (KJV) – the idols on the heathen are silver and gold, the work of men’s hands. They have mouths, but they speak not; eyes have they, but they see not; they have ears, but they hear not; neither is there any breath in their mouths. They that make them are like unto them: so is every one that trusteth in them.

Its better to have a little through righteous living than to have much through dishonest living.

Proverbs 16:8 (KJV) – better is a little with righteousness than great revenues without right.

We create an environment for the enemy to dwell within us and walk amongst us, first by our thoughts.

You don’t invite the enemy, your environment does.

Change your thinking and you’ll change your environment.

Romans 12:2 (KJV) – and be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.

Have you ever heard someone say; ‘you’re always praying’?

Well you should.

Pray about EVERYTHING, BIG and small.

Philippians 4:6 (KJV) – be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.

Whatever good deed you do in secret, not to be purposely seen by men, God himself will bless you in the open, before men.

Matthew 6:5 (KJV) – that thine alms may be in secret: and thy Father which seeth in secret himself shall reward thee openly.

Don’t do good things for men just to be seen by men.

This is one sure way of missing your blessings from God.

Matthew 6:1 (KJV) – take heed that ye do not your alms before men, to be seen of them: otherwise ye have no rewards of your Father which is in heaven.

Talk is not cheap.

It’s costly.

Proverbs 18:21 (KJV) – death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof.
