Thanksgiving 2024 - Psalms 99 and 100

Nov 24, 2024    Pastor Joshua Plantholt

It's good to give thanks to God, walking in him and abounding in thanksgiving! Even in tough times, we grieve with hope, and rejoice. Continue steadfastly in prayer and be vigilant in thanksgiving! Find reasons to be thankful.


God's word contains many examples associating thankfulness with sharing a meal. Every time we eat together dinner at the table is an opportunity to be thankful and worship God! He blesses us many times a day, in innumerable ways.


Praise him for the great things he's doing and the great things he's already done!


Worship him because he's Lord of both heaven and earth! He's holy, separate!!! His works are greater than ours. Jesus through his blood purchased everlasting life for us on the cross! Rejoice and be thankful!


How? God tells us his love language. Shout words of affirmation! He wants us to talk to him; don't be shy about our gratitude! Don't be ashamed. 


Serve him with gladness and singing! Serving him is a privilege!!! Serve and praise him with gratitude. 


We are to use our minds in worship. Engage our hearts AND our heads!


Enter his presence with gladness and Thanksgiving, and bless his name, because he is good and his love and faithfulness endure forever!!!


We thank God for all that he's provided, and in everything, give him his due glory!!!
