SEEDS OF DESTINY 24TH NOVEMBER 2024 DAILY DEVOTIONAL, SOD MESSAGE WRITTEN BY DR. PAUL ENENCHE
Dunamis Seeds of Destiny 24th November 2024 SOD Daily Devotional Reading for Sunday
TOPIC: The Implication of Thanksgiving
SCRIPTURE: Give unto the LORD the glory due unto his name; worship the LORD in the beauty of holiness. PSALMS 29:2.
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: A thanks-giver does not only give God praise and worship from his lips; he also gives God his substances.
One thing that thanksgiving communicates is a giving attitude or lifestyle. In every thanksgiving, there is a giving.
Thanksgiving implies generosity and goodness. Thanksgiving involves the communication of generosity or goodness.
Thanksgiving is a form of giving because it involves giving, generosity and showing the act of kindness. A “thanks-giver” is a giver; he gives, and the first thing he gives is thanks. A “thanks-giver” is a generous and good person. He gives or releases goodness.
This means, thanksgiving shows that you are a good person. A bad person doesn’t say “Thank you” to anyone.
It may sound provoking but the truth is, you cannot be a good person if you don’t know how to give thanks; ingratitude is a character of bad people. People who do not give thanks are bad people; they have an entitlement mentality.
Psalms 29:2 says,
Give unto the LORD the glory due unto his name; worship the LORD in the beauty of holiness.
Good people do not deprive people of their rights. A “thanks-giver” gives to the Lord. A thanks-giver releases his life and resources to the Lord. A thanks-giver does not only give God praise and worship from his lips; he also gives God his substances. A thanks-giver is a person of sacrifice. There is nothing that is too big that he cannot give to God in appreciation of Him or for the expansion of His Kingdom.
A thanks-giver also gives to men; he releases his resources for the benefit of humanity. He gives to bless the lives of others.
Remember this: A thanksgiver does not only give God praise and worship from his lips, he also gives God his substances.
ASSIGNMENT:
1. Always maintain a grateful heart and a thankful spirit.
2. Do not allow your thanksgiving only stop with your lips; let the release of your resources accompany the flow of your thanksgiving.
PRAYER: Lord, I ask for the impartation of a thankful heart and the grace of giving. Rescue me from the spell of ingratitude, Lord, in Jesus Name.
