The Blessed Protection of “In Everything Give Thanks”

Boy, oh boy, I’m so thankful for God’s will…It’s His desire, His will, to keep me free from spending any time in satan’s downward-spiraling traps.

Just about the time – like this morning – I feel like I’m taking on “care, anxious thoughts, self-pity or discouragement” about something, God’s Word comes to mind to rescue me and lift me up by reminding me of this precious verse.  Stops the enemy’s lies from doing further damage to me.  I’m reminded that I live by faith, not by feelings, and that God’s in control.  He’s working all things for my good.  Puts me back on track and moving forward in Jesus.  Helps me remember, once again, of all He has in store for me.

In every thing give thanks:  for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you.
1 Thessalonians 5:18

Thank you, God, for sending us Your all-powerful Word.

God bless,

Mark
