Always Giving Thanks
always giving thanks for everything to God the Father, in the name of the Lord Yeshua the Messiah. —Ephesians 5:20 (TLV)
O give thanks to the LORD, call on His name; Make His deeds known among the peoples. Sing to Him, sing praises to Him; Speak of all His wonders. (2 Chronicles 16:7-9 AMP) ...thanks be to God, who keeps giving us the victory through our Lord Yeshua the Messiah! (1 Corinthians 15:17 TLV) We can thank Him that even though we go through trials and tribulations here on earth, He has already given us the victory through Yeshua. Do not be like the people in Romans 1:21-22 (NASB1995) For even though they knew God, they did not honor Him as God or give thanks, but they became futile in their speculations, and their foolish heart was darkened. Professing to be wise, they became fools. Through Him then, let us continually offer up a sacrifice of praise to God, that is, the fruit of lips that give thanks to His name. (Hebrews 13:15 NASB1995)
in every situation [no matter what the circumstances] be thankful and continually give thanks to God; for this is the will of God for you in Christ Jesus. —1 Thessalonians 5:18 (AMP)
