Everyday is a Day of Thanksgiving!
It is a good thing to give thanks unto the Lord, and to sing praises unto thy name, O Most High:To shew forth thy lovingkindness in the morning, and thy faithfulness every night,” Psalm 92:1-2
“Everyday is a day of thanksgiving…God’s been so good to me!” is a line from an old Gospel hymn. It brings praise and thanks to my heart just thinking about how good God is. Even during all the chaotic circumstances that we experience in life . . . our Creator is GOOD, He lovingly provides, sustains, and blesses us along this Christian journey.”O give thanks unto the Lord, for he is good: for his mercy endureth for ever.” Psalm 107:1.
Psalm 92 is a call to give thanks to God. David was writing to the Jewish nation about the Sabbath day observation and specifically remembering to hold it as a day of rest to give thanks to God for His providential care. As God beloved children we too are called upon and encouraged to praise God. “It is a good thing to give thanks unto the Lord, and to sing praises unto thy name, O Most High:To shew forth thy lovingkindness in the morning, and thy faithfulness every night,” Psalm 92:1-2
It is good and praiseworthy to give God thanks for being our Sovereign Lord and for all His innumerable spiritual as well as physical blessings. Paul wrote in 1 Thessalonians that giving thanks is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning us. It is our duty to give praise and honor to the Lord; “Give unto the Lord the glory due unto his name: bring an offering, and come before him: worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness.” 1 Chronicles 1:29.
When we give thanks and honor to God, we are expressing our heartfelt appreciation for His amazing grace and unconditional love. So, regardless to where we are and what is going on in our lives . . . this day and everyday let us lift our hands and loudly proclaim our thanks to God on high. He is good and His mercy endureth forever. “Thou hast turned for me my mourning into dancing: thou hast put off my sackcloth, and girded me with gladness; To the end that my glory may sing praise to thee, and not be silent. O Lord my God, I will give thanks unto thee for ever.” Psalm 30:11-12.
tMy friends, God is great, He alone extends His loving grace and mercy toward us all; it because of His great mercy and amazing grace that we were able open our eyes and see a new day…so let us not just this day…but everyday give thanks, praise and glory to His name! “For great is the Lord, and greatly to be praised: he also is to be feared above all gods” 1 Chronicles 16:25.
Blessing and peace be with you all for a marvelous day.
