Thanksgiving

THANKSGIVING:

A day of thanks unto God for the great bounty of not just the harvest,

But for the bounty of love that God has allowed us to know and enjoy.

It has been set aside to honor Him, remember Him and praise Him.

A day of feasting and celebration of family and

to acknowledge Gods graciousness to us.

We as a nation have not deserved the great blessings

bestowed by God Almighty. His great creation itself rejoices and shouts

of His goodness. For this blessing alone we should be thankful.

His provision, for us as a nation, has been

astounding in comparison to other nations. Let us return to Him and rejoice

with thanksgiving to our great God, who will never leave His child comfortless.

Let us be thankful for the provision of daily need whether

physical emotional or spiritual. The provision of His grace that enables us

to continue on each day.

Have not the trees produced their crop and the fields their corn?

While others live in a barren waste and beg their bread?

Still many dare to shake their fist at God while God

has been overly patient with this country.

Have not the spoiled of our country cried

the loudest in their complaints and bit the hands that fed them?

Let our thanksgiving be of a true heart, Living a life that exemplifies

our gratefulness by our obedience to God.

A nation that forgets God and forsakes His commandments

will not go unpunished.

Lord help us to love you more and truly realize how good you are.

Help us to see how wonderfully blessed we are in this country.

Your blessings are numberless.

Let us fear what we allow to pass through our lips and

cause them to be filled with praise and thanksgiving.

Oh Lord I pray, that this country doesn't have to

suffer tremendous loss in order to see how good we really had it.

The old saying stands true, You really don't know what you have

until it's gone. Once it's gone we'll realize we should have been grateful.

Let us be grateful.

Let our hearts be filled with true thankfulness.

Let us rejoice in God's immeasurable blessings.

Gods provision and His grace upon this beautiful country,

America, our home.

Thank You, God.

Thank You.

Sometimes It's Hard to Feel Thankful

Sometimes It's Hard to Feel Thankful

Sometimes it's hard to feel thankful especially when we know injustice towards good has taken the lives of just people or when injustice has caused grief where happiness was flourishing, but as Christians we know to fail to praise God would be like holding up a surrendering flag to the enemy. I think of the actions of Job who did not surrender in his heart to Satans' temptation of bitterness towards God.

Job 1:21 And said, Naked came I out of my mother's womb, and naked shall I return thither: the LORD gave, and the LORD hath taken away; blessed be the name of the LORD.

Job had great loss, the death of his children in tragedy and abandonment of his wife through the great health problems that had befallen him. He had no one, even his friends judged him wrongly and were not true friends, but yet Job blessed the Lord. He did not surrender to bitterness towards God, but rather continued to believe in the goodness of God. His faith was tried and He remained faithful.

God blessed Job after the worst tragedy of his life had become the past and Job learned to live again. God blessed Job more at the later part of His life than He had before tragedy hit his life. God gave him another wife, more children and more riches. He continued to trust God and to dream again after losing all His dreams.

Job is one of the greatest examples of praise to the Lord in scriptures... even through great suffering He blessed the name of the Lord and did not curse the Lord God. God was moved to bless Job more at the ending of his life than His beginning.

Short Devotional:

There Are No Simple Thank-Yous

If I could tell you thank-you:

With words, just fabulous.

Not so simple, but with scolar;

Worth thousands of dollars.

I would talk to you all day;

Give thanks in an unusaul way.

Genuine, with my heart in line;

Because you have been so kind.

Thank-you, Thank-you, it's true;

My heart is thinking of you;

And ev'ry'thing you've done;

Not just for me but ev'ry one.

Though my words are mostly simple;

My love for you is more than real;

I just want to let you know;

Just how you've made me feel.

There are no simple thank-yous;

When the thanks belongs to you;

It's hard to do them justice'

Because I'm inlove with you.

Thank-You

A Love Thank-You...Sweetest Day

You Are........

YOU ARE

You Are......

My Redeemer, my God, my friend;

Thank-you for loving me forever.

For pulling me out of sin's quick sands;

And holding me in your caring hands.

You Are......

My Father in heaven, creator;

Thank-you for your faithfulness each day.

Thank-you for all the joy you provide.

And for walking along by my side;

You Are.....

My Jesus, my Saviour, my comfort;

Thank-you for dwelling inside my heart.

Thank-you for drying away my tears;

When life seems to get- to hard to bear.

You Are.......

My anchor when the storm passes by;

The list'ning ear in which I confide.

Thank-you Lord for hearing my prayers.

Thank-you that you are a God who cares.

You Are.....

My Salvation, my Rock, And my Strength.

My hope, in you, My Christ, forever.

Thank-you for how wonderful you are;

Thank-you from the bottom of my heart.

Thank-you
Thank-you from the bottom of my heart.

I Thank God For You

Another year, another day, another moment, without delay;

Let us give thanks unto the Lord our God for all He's given us.

Oh how often we do forget, just how good our God has been;

In providing us a home of love and gentle tenderness.

I know sometimes days go wrong and things don't always go our way;

but I can say that I love you in that good old fashioned way.

I know life hasn't always been perfect, but what I feel for you is real;

So if you haven't heard it enough, know this, I thank God for you today.

Though we've had to travel some rough roads in this life together;

Though we've had hurdles that were just plain hard to get over.

Forgiveness has lead us to higher ground, by The grace of our Lord.

Love has lead us through , not by chance, nor by any four leaf clover.

Another year, another day, another moment, without delay;

Let us give thanks unto the Lord our God for all He's given us.

Let us remember the many years we reared with love and care;

Our two little girls, sometimes with giggles, sometimes with fuss.

Now that our children are grown, are married and out on their own;

I thank the Lord I have you in my life and that I am your wife.

May I never let a day go by without saying thank-you;

For you being you, A man of honor, who fulfils my life.

I Thank God For You.

But Only He

Thank the Lord:

Praise the Lord;

Worthy ,Great, Almighty Is He.

Love The Lord;

With all your heart;

Jesus loves us compassionately .

He frees the lost;

From tangling sin.

Through faith, then made family.

Thank the Lord:

Praise the Lord;

For none can save, but only He.

Do not forget:

He saves the soul;

From hells awaiting agony.

He touches hearts;

With His pure Word;

Transforming truth that sets us free.

His blood was shed;

His love then said;

"This was for thee, come unto me."

Thank the Lord:

Praise the Lord;

For none can save, but only He.

I Am So Thankful

I Am So Thankful

I Am So Thankful;
That God's Ways Never Change.
He Is Still Faithful;
In A World Rearranged.

I Am So Thankful;
He Gives Grace To His Own.
Though Great Grows the Darkness.
His Light Ever Shines On.

I Am So Thankful;
That When Life Gives Us Grief.
That You Will Restore;
Beyond Hopes And Belief.

I Am So Thankful;
That Your Peace Can Be Known.
Though This World May Fall;
We Will One Day Be Home.

The Beauty Of Spring

The Beauty Spring

Every little creature;

Every wondrous thing.

From evening skies to sunrise;

When all of nature sings.

Glory to the King of kings.

Glory to the King of kings;

Who formed each living thing.

Who gave us both night and day.

And the beauty of spring....
the beauty of spring.

The daffodils, yellow bright;

The hyacinth so blue.

The sweet scents of the springtime;

After winter is through.

Glory to the King of kings.

Glory to the King of kings;

Who formed each living thing.

Who gave each day a blessing;

And a reason, a wonderful reason,
to sing.

The fluttering butterfly;

Upon its wings of gold.

The cascading of blossoms;

As they brightly unfold.

Glory to the King of kings.

Glory to the King of kings;

Who formed each living thing.

Who gave a smile from heaven;

When He gave us the spring....
beautiful spring.

Every little creature;

Ev'ry wondrous thing.

Glory to the King of kings;

Thank you God, Thank you God,
Thank you God,
for the spring.

Glory to the King of kings.

I thought about calling this poem

by a different name: Glory To The King Of Kings

or Splendorous Spring or Beautiful Spring

1Choronicles

23:5 Moreover four thousand were porters; and four thousand praised the LORD with the instruments which I made, said David, to praise therewith.

25:3 Of Jeduthun: the sons of Jeduthun; Gedaliah, and Zeri, and Jeshaiah, Hashabiah, and Mattithiah, six, under the hands of their father Jeduthun, who prophesied with a harp, to give thanks and to praise the LORD.

2Chronicles

7:6 And the priests waited on their offices: the Levites also with instruments of musick of the LORD, which David the king had made to praise the LORD, because his mercy endureth for ever, when David praised by their ministry; and the priests sounded trumpets before them, and all Israel stood.

20:19 And the Levites, of the children of the Kohathites, and of the children of the Korhites, stood up to praise the LORD God of Israel with a loud voice on high.

20:21 And when he had consulted with the people, he appointed singers unto the LORD, and that should praise the beauty of holiness, as they went out before the army, and to say, Praise the LORD; for his mercy endureth

29:30 Moreover Hezekiah the king and the princes commanded the Levites to sing praise unto the LORD with the words of David, and of Asaph the seer. And they sang praises with gladness, and they bowed their heads and worshipped.

Ezrah

3:10 And when the builders laid the foundation of the temple of the LORD, they set the priests in their apparel with trumpets, and the Levites the sons of Asaph with cymbals, to praise the LORD, after the ordinance of David king of Israel.

Psalms

9:1 I will praise thee, O LORD, with my whole heart; I will shew forth all thy marvellous works.

28:7 The LORD is my strength and my shield; my heart trusted in him, and I am helped: therefore my heart greatly rejoiceth; and with my song will I praise him.

109:30 I will greatly praise the LORD with my mouth; yea, I will praise him among the multitude.

147:20 He hath not dealt so with any nation: and as for his judgments, they have not known them. Praise ye the LORD.

31:7 For thus saith the LORD; Sing with gladness for Jacob, and shout among the chief of the nations: publish ye, praise ye, and say, O LORD, save thy people, the remnant of Israel.

The Greatest Gift Is You

When I get up Christmas morning;

See the presents under the tree.

I'll remember to thank Jesus;

For the blessings He's given me.

Though Christmas is about giving;

Receiving's a blessing too.

Because we know the one who gives:

Is saying to us, " I love you."

Though our gifts cannot be compared;

With the greatest gift once given.

The gift wrapped in swaddling clothes;

The love of God sent from heaven.

---

The greatest gift, was you Jesus;

The greatest gift ever given.

You the Child, became our Savior;

Through your blood, our sins forgiven.

Each light that twinkles, each bead strung;

Every little thing we've done.

Each present wrapped dims because....

You, are the greatest gift of all.

The greatest gift, was you Jesus;

No greater love, has been given;

You are the light of the world.

The greatest gift came from heaven.

The greatest gift

is YOU.

Christmas Song To Jesus

Thank-You Lord

I have a Father in heaven above;

I have a table surrounded with love.

I have loved ones who care about me;

I have a country of liberty.

I have eyes to see the stars gleaming;

And ears to hear the river streaming.

A heart that longs to serve our living Lord.

And tears for a lost and dying world.

I have feet that bring me one step closer;

To the place you have prepared for me.

Another hour, another day:

To love, to live, to follow your Way.

I have a mouth that can taste the snow;

White, clean,cascading, a crystallizing flow.

I can enjoy, knowing each snowflake is new

And everything wonderful came from you.

I can look upon a morning sunrise;

I can see your goodness with faith's eyes.

Look upon a mountain in a foggy view;

Knowing nothing is impossible for you.

I can behold the colors of the setting sun;

I can see you in all the things you've done.

In the rain, in the rainbow , and here below.

So many blessings, so many to know.

I can smell the fragrance of a flower;
That little tiny hands have picked for me.
And know all the while both are miracles;
I find very, very precious to me.

I have a tongue, that can give Thanksgiving;

That can praise you and with a new song sing.

Though lowly are we in a small, small, world.

Thank-you, Lord, Thank you, Lord, Thank-you Lord,

There Are So Many Things

There are so many things;

I could praise you for.

There are so many things:

I could thank you for.

With a heart of Thanksgiving;

I will speak your name.

You took upon yourself;

My guilt and my shame.

You held me through the storm;

That I could not face.

You held me close to you;

with amazing grace.

How great thou art is true;

It's all about you.

How wonderful you are;

I'm thankful for you.

With faithfulness and love;

Oh, Lord you provide.

You answer our prayers;

And hear us on high.

You can walk on water ;

You can calm the seas.

You can form a planet;

And still think of me.

There are so many things;

I could praise you for.

There are so many things:

I could thank you for.

Song Of Thanksgiving Praise

Monday, September 29, 2014

In Thanksgiving We Sing To God

We gather together today:

To give Him thanks and praise.

Our heavenly Father, our God;

Splendid in all His ways.

Let every tongue speak clear;

That Jesus is the Way.

Let hearts be opened to the Truth:

And Life spring forth today.

In thanksgiving we sing to God;

In appreciation;

For His love, his guidance each day;

And the light of His salvation.

Let the believers tongue confess;

When God's light, lights their heart.

When they've left their wilderness;

To make Christ their new start.

We gather together to pray;

Giving thanks unto Him.

For the bounty of the Harvest;

For each loved one and friend.

In thanksgiving we sing to God;

In appreciation;

He is our hope, our corner stone;

Our souls habitation.

There Are So Many Things

There Are So Many Things

There are so many things to thank you for;

So many reasons to give you praise.

Too many blessing to be counted, Lord

You have blessed us in so many ways.

You have prepared an everlasting home;

And paid our way through your precious blood.

We can count on you more than any friend;

You have loved us with an unending love.

You have given us endless things to learn;

You have given wisdom to discern.

Oh Lord you've been so very good to us;

But yet so many love to fight and fuss.

Help our hearts continue to thank you Lord;

Because of your mercy each day.

Help us be thankful in life because;

Heaven is just a vapor away.

Thank-you for the sunshine in the morning;

That shines through my window pane.

Thank-you that you care for the sparrow

And thank-you for just knowing my name.

Thank-you for the children that you've blessed me with;

And a home to keep us safe and warm.

Thank-you for your grace along the way;

To help us through life's troubled storms.

Thank-you for the opportunities;

To show love to others in my life.

Thank-you for all those that love me;

And thank-you for their sacrifice.

Thank-you for this country and our freedom;

And for all those who fought so to be.

Lord help us to realize how precious it is;

To be able to serve you in liberty.

There are so many things to thank you for;

So many reasons to give you praise.

Too many blessing to be counted, Lord

You have blessed us in so many ways.

I Thank You

Oh precious Lord Jesus:

I lift up your name.

You are my Salvation;

I'm no longer the same.

Thank-you for your pardon;

And a love that's so grand.

That has reached for sinners;

Numbered more than the sand.

Thank-you for honey;

From the sweet honey comb.

In your cherished Word;

I am never alone.

Thank-you for your friendship;

That I have held onto.

I would surely give up;

If it were not for you.

O bless your holy name;

Far, far above the sun.

And all your Word proclaimed;

Until the work is done.

Oh precious Lord Jesus:

I lift up your name.

I thank you, I thank you.

He Is What Matters Most

Susan Y Nikitenko
November 24th, 2012

The new fallen snow is upon the tree tops;
Stillness is all around.
A wintry brook splashes along unfrozen;
A most consoling sound.

The first snow of fall has blessed with it's kiss;
And a crisp fresh morning.
A sparkling blanket of beauty shines brightly;
In God's adorning.

A breathy mist of fog passes through my lips;
As I sing to the Lord.
In thanksgiving, I remember His great love;
Bestowed upon this world.

He forgives us and washes us white as snow;
Another beginning.
Following the steps, He has left for us to tread;
Walking, loving trusting.

Walking along in the snow , I remember;
While holding His truth close.
My redeemer, my Savior, my hope, my life;
He Is what matters most.

Thank-You Daddy God - 2012

Thank-You Daddy God

When I think of what I could of been without you.
When I think of your forgiveness and grace.
I can't help but cry aloud with thanksgiving;
With much joy and a tear upon my face.

You have lifted me from the mire of disgrace;
You have washed all my sinfulness away.
You have clothed me in your righteousness;
And intently hear me when I pray.

I'm like a child holding my arms up for your care;
Daddy God, Thank-you for your tenderness.
I'm like a child twirling in your sunshine;
Daddy God, Thank-you for your forgiveness.

May my lips be filled with much thanksgiving praise;
Not just on this coming thanksgiving day.
but each new glad morning and each night of rest;
May my words swell with thanks as I pray.

Thank-you Daddy God, Most heavenly Father;
For your goodness, your provision, your love.
For your strength, For your direction, your peace;
And the many blessings we partake of.

Thank -you Father (God)
