![]() ![]() I have found that when I begin to thank God for everything, not just the good things, it completely changes my perspective and makes me far more of a grateful person. Practice gratitude to God in everything, by thanking Him for the difficulties you are facing on any given day, for the things He has withheld for your own good, for the refining work He is doing in your soul, for the trials that are molding you into the image of Christ, and for the way He can redeem all things for good to those who love Him and are called according to His purpose ( Romans 8:28). As you do this, you are living out “the will of God for you in Christ Jesus” as the verse states. First Thessalonians 5:18 instructs: “in everything give thanks for this is the will of God for you in Christ Jesus.” Notice the verse doesn’t say “In good things give thanks” or “in the pleasantries of life, give thanks.” Rather, it commands us to be thankful in everything – the good, the bad, and the ugly. ![]() Scripture is very clear on our command to be grateful, and not just for what God has given us. First John 1:9 tells us “If we confess our sins, He is faithful and righteous, so that He will forgive us our sins and cleanse us from all unrighteousness.” Thanksgiving Yes, God already knows about our sins, but by confessing them, we are admitting to and acknowledging that our sin is offensive to God and agreeing with Him that we need His Son, Jesus, to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. I said, “I will confess my wrongdoings to the Lord” Īnd You forgave the guilt of my sin (NASB).” My vitality failed as with the dry heat of summer. “When I kept silent about my sin, my body wasted awayįor day and night Your hand was heavy upon me The “C” in the ACTS prayer is admitting and confessing your sin to God so that your prayers will not be hindered ( 1 Peter 3:7).

You are the Creator and Sustainer of Life and from everlasting to everlasting You are God.” ![]() For example, “Lord God in Heaven, You are worthy to be praised. In Matthew 6:10, Jesus taught His followers to start their prayers with adoration, when He prayed, “Our Father in heaven, Hallowed be Your name.” You can start your prayers with adoration for God by recounting His many characteristics in the form of praise. Or you can pray whatever the Spirit of God brings to your mind about the worthiness and wonder of God’s attributes and character. You can use Scripture, like Psalm 100:5, to recount God’s worthiness as you adore Him: “For the Lord is good His mercy is everlasting, And His truth endures to all generations” (NKJV). Scripture says God is worthy or our praise, regardless of what He has given to us or withheld from us. Adoration is different than thanksgiving (which comes later in this prayer) because adoration is praising God for Who He is, whereas thanksgiving is thanking God for what He’s done.
