Happy (almost) Thanksgiving, friends! I pray your day is filled with gratitude and Jesus… Today, I wanted to share with you something God revealed to me a few years ago and wanted to re-share it with you today.
***
The Enemy doesn’t take a holiday. And that is also true for me. He has been attacking me from all angles lately and today, even on this Holy Day of thanks, he showed up.
So I retreated to my prayer closet and this is what happened:
When the enemy doesn’t take a holiday…
Lord, I am thankful You don’t keep us at arm’s length.
Lord, I am thankful You speak.
Lord, I am thankful You listen.
Lord, I am thankful You answer.
Lord, I am thankful You love us in spite of our sins.
Lord, I am thankful that Your Grace fills our gaps.
Lord, I am thankful You always care.
Lord, I am thankful You teach us.
Lord, I am thankful for Your guidance.
Lord, I am thankful for the creative ways you provide and meet ALL our needs.
Lord, I am thankful that Your Peace passes understanding.
Lord, I am thankful Your Plans are perfect, even if we can’t see it right now.
Lord, I am thankful You first loved us.
Lord, I am thankful for Your eternal truths.
Lord, I am thankful You did not create us to go at this world alone, but to live in rich community.
Lord, I am thankful You arm us daily for battle.
Lord, I am thankful that You forgive us… Over and over and over again.
Lord, I am thankful for Your loving hand of discipline.
Lord, I am thankful for Your Son Jesus, who bled, died and rose again, giving us hope and a future with You.
Lord, I am thankful that when the Enemy doesn’t take a holiday…
Neither do you.
Dear friends… What are your thankful for today? I would love to join you in a spirit of thanksgiving and gratitude. Share by leaving a comment.
And let’s rejoice that God is by our side 24/7 and 365, regardless of the calendar date!
Thankful in Him,
“He will not let your foot slip— he who watches over you will not slumber; indeed, he who watches over Israel will neither slumber nor sleep.” ~Psalm 121:3-4 NIV
