Why We Are Thankful

Episode Summary

In this thanksgiving season, as we study today's passage, we will examine our hearts why are thankful.

Episode Notes

Psalm 95:1-7

Come, let us sing for joy to the Lord; let us shout aloud to the Rock of our salvation. Let us come before him with thanksgiving and extol him with music and song. For the Lord is the great God, the great King above all gods. In his hand are the depths of the earth, and the mountain peaks belong to him. The sea is his, for he made it, and his hands formed the dry land. Come, let us bow down in worship, let us kneel before the Lord our Maker; for he is our God and we are the people of his pasture, the flock under his care.

 

Thanksgiving and Faith 

I Thessalonians 5:17-18 "Give thanks in all circumstances, for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus."
