Faith Christian Assembly

Thanksgiving is a time to stop, reflect and give thanks to the Lord for the many blessings he has given. Even in the midst of challenging times, believers have much to be thankful for.

The Bible has plenty to say about giving thanks: “Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus,” Philippians 4:6-7.

“And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to which also you were called in one body; and be thankful,” Colossians 3:15.

“Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good; his love endures forever,” Psalm 107:1.

These are just a few examples of an important and prominent theme in the Bible: thankfulness. These scriptures illustrate the importance of gratitude for every person. The negative things in today’s world that people focus on are plentiful, but God promises peace for believers hearts and minds when they place their trust in him through giving thanks.
