Prayers for thanksgiving

 

Prayers for thanksgiving are one way that we can express our gratitude to God. Everybody has a reason for thanking God. Look at the free air we breathe and the life we have is enough reason to make us grateful to God. God is pleased when we approach Him with prayers for thanksgiving. The scripture says that “Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus. (Philippians 4:6-7).

Prayers for thanksgiving are the act of showing gratitude especially when God has done something good in your life. We should always have an attitude of gratitude. God is pleased when our hearts are full of gratitude than when we are anxious, worried, and full of complaints. We should not always look at the positive side of life and not complain about what we don’t have instead we should take time to thank God for every blessing that God has bestowed upon our lives.

Someone sang and said, Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, in everything give thanks; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you. “count your blessings name them one by one and we will see what the Lord has done”. Remember there are things in life that we are complaining about yet there is someone somewhere that is crying day and night to have them. Someone may be complaining about how stubborn his children are and yet there is a barren woman somewhere that has been crying day and night for God to open her womb and bless her with a child.

When you pray with thanksgiving you are acknowledging that it is only God who is in control of your life therefore you will not worry or be anxious about anything that takes place in your life, whether good or bad. And at this moment the peace of God that surpasses all human understanding guards your heart through Jesus Christ.

There is a great benefit when our prayers are full of thanksgiving. One day 10 leppers approached Jesus Christ in need of healing, Jesus listened to their cry and healed them, but the scripture says that only one who was a Samaritan came back to Jesus to give thanks for the healing. The scripture says that not only was he healed of leprosy but he was made well.

Imagine what will happen to our lives if we always pray with thanksgiving, we can witness great supernatural happenings in our lives that were being hindered by our complaints, anxiety, and murmurings. Look at the example in the bible when Jesus was faced with a situation of feeding five thousand men and he only had 5 loaves of bread and 2 fish. Then Jesus said, “Make the people sit down.” Now there was much grass in the place. So, the men sat down, in number about five thousand.  And Jesus took the loaves, and when He had given thanks He distributed them to the disciples, and the disciples to those sitting down; and likewise of the fish, as much as they wanted. (John 6:10-11). Jesus Christ understood the importance of tanking His Father in prayer.

Finally, the scripture says; Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, in everything give thanks; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you. ( 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18)
