THANKING AND PRAISING GOD EVEN IN OUR TRIALS

Philippians 4:4 New King James Version
4 Rejoice in the Lord always. Again I will say, rejoice!

GOOD EVENING IN YESHUA GANG!!!
Tell me something my friends, and I pray that you'll be honest and have this answer to this question from this morning's devotional come from your heart.

What are you grateful for?

I know. It’s a question you probably think is redundant, but it's something I really pray that you think about. We go through a lot of difficult things, and as Nancy Gavilanes, this morning's devotional writer correctly stated, “When we're going through difficulties, it may be challenging to find reasons to be grateful and to praise God.” However as she also states, “Psalm 100 gives us reasons to rejoice and give God praise despite our circumstances.”

Which is why, tonight, my friends, I'd like to share some things that God showed me from this precious Psalm, through this vlog I’d like to share with you tonight, on what it means to be able to thank and praise God in the midst of the trials and difficulties that we go through in life. Come join me in this vlog tonight my friends, and learn how to be able to praise and thank God even in your trials! 😊

So, my friends, as I close this post with all of you tonight, I want to leave you with this final question from this morning's devotional, and I pray it gives you cause to be thankful and praise God despite the trials and hardships.

What can you praise God for right now?

I don't know what it is you may be experiencing right now, but I want you to know that God walks beside you, understands what you are going through, and if you trust Him, He will not only see you through it, but as Nancy stated out of this morning's devotional, “Whatever our trial, we can take comfort knowing that God is near to our broken hearts (34:18). The more time we spend with God in prayer and reading the Bible, the more we’ll be able to “enter his gates with thanksgiving and his courts with praise” and “give thanks to him and praise his name” (100:4). We can “shout for joy to the Lord” (v. 1) even and perhaps especially when we’re in a difficult season because our God is faithful.” Don't be afraid to be thankful in the midst of the trials and hardships!

UNTIL TUESDAY:

HAVE A VERY PRAISE FILLED EVENING IN CHRIST JESUS!!!
