1 Chron 16:34 Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good; his love endures forever.

Phil 4:6-7  Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.  And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.

1 Thess 5:16-18 Be joyful always; pray continually; give thanks in all circumstances, for this is God’s plan for you.

Many ask…

How can I thank God for all that’s going on?

  • Thanking God for all things is…
  • Thanking Him for His provision (received)
  • Thanking Him in all things is…
  • Thanking Him for His intervention (involvement)

Thanking God… releases His provision

Romans 8:28 And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose.

Let’s look at
