Magnify God Through Thankfulness

ThanksLiving. Sunday morning sermon series for the month of November. Thankfulness is the key to contentment!

Thought for the Day
Psalms 69:30-31
(30) I will praise the name of God with a song, and will magnify him with thanksgiving.
(31) This also shall please the LORD better than an ox or bullock that hath horns and hoofs.

Once again we see the importance of thankfulness to our relationship with God. David describes thanksgiving here as "magnifying" the Lord and "pleasing" Him more than many sacrifices. We can not overestimate the importance of gratitude to as successful Christian life. I believe if we would focus on this one grace and determine to grow in this area through concentration and focus that we would experience a great burst of enthusiasm in our walk with Christ. Thanksgiving magnifies Him; it makes Him big to everyone around us, and this is exactly what He deserves. He is worthy!

Magnify the Lord today through thanksgiving. Let everyone know that you appreciate all the good that He has allowed to come your way today.
