APPRECIATION
Psalm 92:1-10Devotional:- “It is good to give thanks to the LORD, And to sing praises to Your name, O Most High” (v.1) NKJV
It is in the habit of most people that when they are expecting something from God, they will do everything possible to gain His favour. But as soon as it is done, that thing loses value to them. So, people only value what they don’t have. This sometimes does not make us have a heart of gratitude to God. We will always promise to give thanks, but as soon as we receive our expectations, some will forget to give thanks.
Many do not know that the opportunity or privilege that is available to them is what qualifies them for what they are expecting. But they look down on this because their expectations have not been met. Your health is more important than travelling abroad. The breath of life you enjoy is far more valuable than the car or job you are expecting. In fact, this qualifies you for those things.
Friend, no matter what God has done for you, big or small, please learn to honour Him by appreciating Him. It could be by doing something for God’s house, by sharing your testimony, by blessing servants of God and by supporting the work of the Lord. It is a good thing to always give thanks to the Lord. Don’t dodge it, do it, and your blessing shall abide.
Prayer: Lord, give me a thankful heart.
“WHEN YOU GIVE THANKS, YOU ARE STILL COMING BACK”
