THANKSGIVING 2017
Becoming a grateful person The password into God’s presence: ______________ Enter with the password: “Thank you!” Psalm 100:4 (MSG)
Our last sane moment
Leading spiritual indicator: ______________ Yes, they knew God, but they wouldn’t worship him as God or even give him thanks. And they began to think up foolish ideas of what God was like. As a result, their minds became dark and confused. Romans 1:21
What is the one thing no one has? • Why we don’t have it
Genesis 3
“Did God really say...?” “You won't die!...your eyes will be opened...you will be like God...” The woman was convinced...she wanted the wisdom it would give her... Genesis 3:1,4-6
At that moment their eyes were opened, and they suddenly felt shame...So they hid from the Lord God... Genesis 3:7,8
“I want what I have; it couldn’t be better.” Contentment:
Compare...“no win in comparison”
…I have learned how to be content with whatever I have. Philippians 4:11
Love is not jealous or boastful or proud. 1 Corinthians 13:4
“I don’t need it.”
Insecurities amped by technology ...boasting...lying...jealousy...Such things are earthly, unspiritual, and demonic. For wherever there is jealousy and selfish ambition, there you will find disorder and evil of every kind. James 3:14-16
This is the day the Lord has made. We will rejoice and be glad in it… Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good! His faithful love endures forever. Psalm 118:24,29 Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, 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. Philippians 4:6-7 (NIV)
Where it ends Graves of craving They ended up calling the place Kibroth Hattaavah (Graves-of-the-Craving). There they buried the people who craved meat. Numbers 11:34 (MSG)
Empty heart He gave them exactly what they asked for—but along with it they got an empty heart. Psalm 106:15 (MSG) ...Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good! His faithful love endures forever. Psalm 106:1
Give thanks to the Lord
Thankfulness: Pray continually. Give thanks in all circumstances, for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus. 1 Thessalonians 5:17-18 (NIV)
• Results
Is God telling you truth?
Way of life
God is withholding
Trust yourself
for He is good
His faithful love endures forever
The life you always wanted…thankful Let all that I am praise the Lord; with my whole heart, I will praise his holy name. Let all that I am praise the Lord; may I never forget the good things he does for me. Psalm 103:1-2
