THANKSGIVING FOR THE POWER OF GOD AND DIVINE EMPOWERMENT
“In everything give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you.” – 1 Thessalonians 5:18
1. Let us start by giving thanks to God. The Bible says, “in ALL things, give thanks”. Let us thank God for seeing us through the first month of the second quarter of the year 2024.
2. Let us give thanks because God is ALWAYS God no matter what happens.
“And I will give unto thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.” – Matthew 16:19
3. We will give thanks because God has empowered us in all areas. Keys means access granted. When you give access, it means you give authority and by giving authority, it means you are empowering. Let’s give thanks because Christ hasn’t left us powerless.
“Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you.” – Luke 10:19
4. Let us give thanks for God has empowered us that even as we go through this life with Christ, we have assurance that the enemy is powerless over us.
5. Let us give thanks to God that even when the enemy sends his arrows and spears against us, they will not by any means hurt us.
“And the hand of the LORD was on Elijah; and he girded up his loins, and ran before Ahab to the entrance of Jezreel.” – 1 Kings 18:46
6. Let us thank God because His power now resides in us continually. We don’t have to wait anymore for His power to come upon us temporarily but that we now have the knowledge that the Power of God is in us always.
“Then he answered and spake unto me, saying, This is the word of the LORD unto Zerubbabel, saying, Not by might, nor by power, but by my spirit, saith the LORD of hosts.” – Zech 4:6
7. Thank God for the outpouring of His Spirit upon us to will and to do. It is not by our own power or strength, but the Spirit of God empowers us through everything in Life.
“But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint.” – Isaiah 40:31
8. Give thanks to God because as we wait upon Him for these 3 days EOM PUSH, we are being empowered and our strengths are being renewed as we look upon the face of God.
Thank God for answered prayers.
