A Grateful heart

Covenant Life Church

This is one of the most important keys for success in Gods Kingdom.

Colossians 2:6–7 NKJV
As you therefore have received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk in Him, 7 rooted and built up in Him and established in the faith, as you have been taught, abounding in it with thanksgiving.

LOVE EXPRESSED

Psalm 100:4-5 NKJV
Enter into His gates with thanksgiving, And into His courts with praise. Be thankful to Him, and bless His name. 5 For the Lord is good; His mercy is everlasting, And His truth endures to all generations. We should enter every situation with this attitude.

Colossians 3:17 NLT
And whatever you do or say, do it as a representative of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks through him to God the Father.

1 Thessalonians 5:17-18 NKJV
pray without ceasing, 18 in everything give thanks; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you.

FAITH EXPRESSED

This is how we start and how we finish our faith.

John 11:41-43
Then they took away the stone from the place where the dead man was lying. And Jesus lifted up His eyes and said, “Father, I thank You that You have heard Me. 42 And I know that You always hear Me….

Luke 17:11–19 KJV

And it came to pass, as he went to Jerusalem, that he passed through the midst of Samaria and Galilee. 12 And as he entered into a certain village, there met him ten men that were lepers, which stood afar off: 13 And they lifted up their voices, and said, Jesus, Master, have mercy on us. 14 And when he saw them, he said unto them, Go shew yourselves unto the priests. And it came to pass, that, as they went, they were cleansed. 15 And one of them, when he saw that he was healed, turned back, and with a loud voice glorified God, 16 And 1fell down on his face at his feet, giving him thanks: and he was a Samaritan. 17 And Jesus answering said, Were there not ten cleansed? but where are the nine? 18 There are not found that returned to give glory to God, save this stranger. 19 And he said unto him, Arise, go thy way: thy faith hath made thee whole.

Philippians 4:6-7 NKJV

Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; 7 and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.

Anxious : G3309 (Strong) Merimnaō

to be anxious about: – (be, have) care (-ful), take thought.

PEACE SHALOM

Prosperity, safety, wellness, welfare and health. One Hebrew dictionary defines shalom as “everything that makes for man’s highest good.” The Hebrew root word from which shalom comes means “to be complete, perfect and full”— in other words: “Nothing missing. Nothing broken.” Your celebration is a demonstration of your expectation.
