Thanksgiving: How To Offer Thanksgiving To God

#Thanksgiving Day 4

Now we know what Thanksgiving is; the next thing is how do offer thanks unto God? How do we show God that we are appreciative of his goodness over us.

There are many ways to show offer thanksgiving to God, some of which includes:

Testifying about His Goodness

My mouth shall tell of Your righteousness. And Your salvation all the day... - Psalm 71:15

Yeah if God has done something good for you, you shouldn’t be shy about telling the world about it. Most churches have a segment in their sunday service where people are called upon to share their testimony. A notable and common mistake during that segment is that testifier dwells more on the problems they face than how or what God did for them. Your testimony should really be only about the problem but more on what God did and how.

The lepers Jesus healed were supposed to go to the synagogue for thanksgiving so that indeed the whole nation will believe there is a God that works wonder.

Your testimony is a form of thanksgiving. That is why a testimony that doesn’t end with thanksgiving is not yet complete.

When we share our testimony before the world, we are glorifying God and telling the world that no one else could have done these good deeds except God.

You don’t keep quiet about what God has done, you give Him thanks about it both in your closest and in the open. God is always glorified in our testimonies.

Has God been good to you? Then testify to the world about it giving God thanks.

It’s the fourth day of a thanks-filled December, tell the world of the goodness of the Lord. Give Him all the thanks right in the public.

My prayer for you is that good things shall not cease in your life.

Do have a blessed Tuesday!

The song was actually borne out of a personal testimony of Travis Greene. According to the artist, 'Made a Way' was written during an impossible situation. His pregnant wife’s water broke at 21 weeks, when pregnancy normally takes between 37-42 weeks. The doctors said the possibility of the baby’s survival is slim to none, and it was during this period when his wife was on bed rest for two months that he wrote the song.

When Jesus was on His way to heal Jairus’s daughter and news came that things had gone from bad to worse, that the girl was dead. Jesus overheard and said, "Don't be upset. Just trust me...
