LIVING IN THE KINGDOM OF GOD NOVEMBER 20, 2025
Thank YOU, Heavenly father, for all the faithful Saints
all around the world. Though most of them we do not know, we know that YOU know
who each one is, where they are and what they go through every day in living in
the Kingdom. You, O Lord, know our every thought, our every word, our every
desire to be your people. You, O Lord, know every struggle we face every minute
of the day. There is nothing that escapes your all seeing eyes, nor any sound
that doesn’t enter your ear. There is not one thing we can hide from you, even
if we wanted to hide something.
Therefore, may we always remember to be a thankful
follower of Jesus Christ. Each of us could most likely take pen and paper and
fill every line with things for which we should be thankful. Sometimes, we take
things for granted, as if we deserved it or did it ourselves.
There is the story of a person who had a dream about
Heaven. He was escorted by an angel. They came to a room so big it could not be
measured. There were angels everywhere, each one very busy. The person asked
what was going on. The angel said, this is the place where all the requests
come in for God’s help and guidance.
They continued on and eventually came to a very small
room, maybe 4 ft by 4ft. There was one angel on duty who was reading the Bible.
The person asked the angel what was the purpose of this room The angel replied
that this was the room where THANK YOU’S came in.
Whether it is necessary or not, we all feel good and
smile when someone says Thank you for something we have done for them. So it is
with God. Don’t just make Thanksgiving a one day a year part of your life. Take
time and be sure to thank God for the multitude of blessings He bestows on us
24/7 365.
We can’t repeat often enough I Thessalonians 5:18
“In everything
give thanks;
for this is
the will of God
in Christ Jesus
concerning
you”.
Teach it and stress it to all you know or meet. By
this we realize that God’s Hand is in everything that happens in our lives.
GIVE THANKS WITH A GRATEFUL HEART.
God bless
