Commit to Memory: “Let the people praise thee, O God; let all the people praise thee. Then shall the earth yield her increase; and God, even our own God, shall bless us. God shall bless us; and all the ends of the earth shall fear him.” Psalms 67:5-7 KJV
In life who likes you matters, it determines how far you can forge ahead. Imagine being liked by the Creator of the universe, the One who said in time of dryness He lays gold as dust and can give to whoever He pleases (Job 22:24) and owns the cattle upon the thousand hills (Psa.50:10), then you can be rest assured you are in for a glorious destiny and as we see from our commit to memory today one key feature that can make the Almighty God to be so interested and love a fellow is if such is a Giver of Thanks. Psalm 50:23 says:.
“Whosoever offereth praise, glorifieth me…”
Friends, once the Lord is glorified, He causes you to begin to experience increase and an avalanche of His blessings like never before.
In the Old Testament, the Almighty God punished the Israelites for murmuring as this brought catastrophe to them. (Num.11:1-3). Why? Any time you murmur you repel people away from God and make them rebel against the Lord. Any time you murmur, you display the attribute only the devil does and is good at. All through scriptures, satan or demons don’t and cannot give thanks. You frustrate satan any time you give thanks and if there is one thing satan cannot do- it’s to give thanks; little wonder he begins to sow seeds of complains, murmuring and discord among brethren. (Num.14:1-3). So anytime you give thanks you strip the enemy of your possessions in their custody.
I pray for a user of this inspiration, that avalanche of multiplication and supply that will end your dry seasons- as you give God quality thanks, may it fall on you in Jesus name.
Reflection: Whenever and wherever there is thanksgiving, the grace that multiplies is always released.
Prayer Lines: Father, like David give me the garment to thank you.
