Jesus Gave Thanks

Give thanks in all circumstances, for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus - 1 Thessalonians 5:18.

                               Jesus gave thanks to God for food. Jesus then took the loaves, gave thanks, and distributed to those who were seated as much as they wanted - John 6:11. More than five thousand men were fed with five loaves of bread and two fish. There were 12 baskets of leftover also. Let us thank God for what we have.

                              Jesus gave thanks to God before raising Lazarus from dead.  Then they took away the stone from the place where the dead man was lying. And Jesus lifted up His eyes and said, “Father, I thank You that You have heard Me – John 11:41. Let us thank God before we receive healing and miracles from God.

                                 At the last supper, Jesus offered thanks. Then He took the cup, and gave thanks, and said, “Take this and divide it among yourselves; for I say to you, I will not drink of the fruit of the vine until the kingdom of God comes.” And He took bread, gave thanks and broke it, and gave it to them, saying, “This is My body which is given for you; do this in remembrance of Me.” - Luke 22:17,18. Let us thank God in all the circumstances of our life.

PRAYER: Dear Lord, Help us to fulfill Your will by giving thanks in all our circumstances. In Jesus name we pray. Amen.
