HIS WORD: DAILY GRACE INSPIRATIONS

Thanksgiving Can Raise The Dead!
Nov 26, 2015
After Jesus had said these words, He
cried with a loud voice, “Lazarus, come
forth!” And the man who had been dead
for four days came out of his tomb!
This is one of the greatest miracles that
Jesus performed. Lazarus had been
dead for four days when Jesus raised
him to life. Wouldn’t you agree that
death is indeed an extreme problem?
Having no money in the bank, being
sick and losing your job, bad as they
are, are not as bad as being dead!
But what I want you to see is this: If
Jesus, in the most extreme of problems,
shows us that the solution is still, “Father, I thank You,” then
how much more should we thank God in the midst of the less
serious problems we face. If thanksgiving can raise the dead,
then let us give thanks in spite of the negative circumstances
and we will see victory.
Unfortunately, we tend to do the opposite—murmur and
complain. But murmuring and complaining only magnify the
problem. Thanksgiving, on the other hand, is the language of
faith which pleases God. I am not saying that we give thanks
for the problems we have. No, we thank God that He is our
answer and that He has already given every blessing to us.
(Ephesians 1:3)
“But Pastor Prince, what I have is so little.”
My friend, thank God for the little you have and it will multiply.
Jesus thanked His Father for the five barley loaves and two
small fish, a little boy’s lunch, and they were multiplied to
feed more than 5,000 people with 12 baskets full of leftovers!
(John 6:8–13) And notice that when the Holy Spirit talked
about this event again, He specifically mentioned the Lord
giving thanks—“the place where they ate bread after the Lord
had given thanks”. (John 6:23) The Holy Spirit seemed to be
more pleased with the act of giving thanks than the miracle of
multiplication or the 12 baskets full of leftovers.
Beloved, the more you thank God, the more you please Him.
What little you have will be multiplied and whatever is dead in
your life will be raised to life!
Thought For The Day
Thanksgiving is the language of faith which pleases God and
causes miracles to manifest in your life.
