KEY
VERSE: v. 4
“Enter His gates with thanksgiving, and His courts with
praise. Give thanks to Him; bless
His name.”
FOCUS: Transforming power is released in those who practice THANKSGIVING!
INTRODUCTION: “Few seem to realize that acts of true thankfulness transform us. To the beginner, GIVING THANKS is an entrance to a new and deeper walk with God. To the mature believer, each act of thanksgiving is a step upward to the higher life – a giant step forward toward the delightful destiny God has for each person who loves Him. The true celebration of thanksgiving will last forever because no matter where we are in our walk with God, it dramatically changes us.” ~ Moishe Rosen
