TOPIC: The Trigger Of Thanksgiving [Open Heaven for Teens 29 February 2024]
MEMORISE: In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you. 1 Thessalonians 5:18
READ: Psalms 150:1-6
1 Praise ye the LORD. Praise God in his sanctuary: praise him in the firmament of his power.
2 Praise him for his mighty acts: praise him according to his excellent greatness.
3 Praise him with the sound of the trumpet: praise him with the psaltery and harp.
4 Praise him with the timbrel and dance: praise him with stringed instruments and organs.
5 Praise him upon the loud cymbals: praise him upon the high sounding cymbals.
6 Let every thing that hath breath praise the LORD. Praise ye the LORD.
MESSAGE
Thanksgiving is an act that shows that you are grateful for something good done to you or for you. However, not all thanksgiving results from occurrences. At times, you may feel prompted to offer thanks even when something terrible has happened, and in this case, it is an act of faith.
A typical example is what happened at a wedding ceremony in one of our churches many years ago. The couple had danced into the registry to sign the marriage register, and suddenly, the groom heard his name being called. He responded and dropped dead. The Pastors prayed for 30 minutes, but nothing happened. The Senior Pastor then remembered that I once taught them to try praise when prayers fail. So, they started praising God and in less than 30 minutes, the dead man came back to life. I believe that the faith they had in God triggered that thanksgiving.
Do you need a miracle in your life or family right now? Why not take the step of faith and begin to praise God for the next 30 minutes. Praise God for who He is and for all he has ever done for you. Then watch what will happen.
ACTION POINT:
Praise God in faith for the next 30 minutes.
HYMN 14 – Standing On The Promises Of God
1. Standing on the promises of Christ our King,
Thro’ eternal ages let His praises ring:
Glory in the highest, I will shout and sing,
Standing on the promises of God.
CHORUS
Standing, Standing,
Standing on the promises of
God my Saviour
Standing, Standing,
I’m standing on the promises of God.
2 Standing on the promises that can-not fail,
When the howling storms of doubt and fear assail
By the living word of Go I shall prevail,
Standing on the promises of God.
3. Standing on the promises I now can see
Perfect, present cleansing in the blood for me;
Standing in the liberty where Christ makes free,
Standing on the promises of God.
4. Standing on the promises of Christ the Lord,
Bound to Him eternally by love’s strong cord,
Overcoming daily with the Spirit’s sword,
Standing on the promises of God.
