Thanksgiving – A proper perspective

Psalm 92:

• Thanks needs to be on our lips everyday. As we draw the breath of life that only God supplies.

• We can never say thank you enough to parents, friends, one another, and especially to God.

• Thanksgiving adds colour to our lives and flavour to our nature.

• Thanksgiving makes you strong and unmovable by the winds of circumstances. It gives you strength and vitality.

When thanksgiving becomes an integral part of your life, your attitude to life will change.

You will become more positive, gracious, loving and humble – Hannah gave God the only son she ever had and got 5 more. I Samuel 2

Numbers 28 and 29– Types of Thanksgiving/offering:

a) daily – 1 -2

b) weekly offering – 9 -10

c) monthly – 11

d) annual – 16

e) Harvest – 26

f) periodic/jubilee – Numbers 29:1

g) Day of atonement – 29:7

h) Tabernacles – 29:12 – For having a place of worship.

This is how God virtually drove out the spirit of murmuring and complaining from His people and prepared them for their inheritance.

What can I give?

Nothing is too big or too small to given- the measure is in the quality of heart with which it was given.

• Hannah gave her child

• the widow gave her mite!

• Jesus gave His life!

Who can give thanks?

• Thanksgiving is not limited to young people. We can challenge each other to a higher spiritual height through thanksgiving.

You may be looking at the year 2003 and wonder what to thank God for. The year may be going, but God’s blessings never cease.

You are in the season of favour!
