"All the angels stood around the throne and the elders and the four living creatures, and fell on their faces before the throne and worshiped God, saying: "Amen! Blessing and glory and wisdom, Thanksgiving and honor and power and might, Be to our God forever and ever. Amen."" Revelation 7:11,12
I can only imagine the thanksgiving that takes place in heaven everyday. Oh how I anticipate the day I bow before the throne and praise my Savior. What a day that will be when I fall on my face before Him and worship Him in all His glory. I am thankful for all He is to me. His honor; His power; His might! But for now I will praise, worship, adore and give Him my thanksgiving with all this earthly body can give. I want to focus more on the Giver than the gifts and to joyfully love and worship Him with all my devotion.
Music moves me so I share this song with you. May it help remind us of what a thankful heart looks like.
With A Thankful Heart (by Don Moen)
With a thankful heart
And a song of praise
We've come to You
Gathered in this place
For the things You've done
And for who You are
We worship You
With a thankful heart
"I will praise the name of God with a song, And will magnify Him with thanksgiving."
(Psalm 69:30)
So we lift up our praise
And we lift up our
Sacrifice to You
Lord we offer our prayers
And we offer our
lives in gratitude
"And when you offer a sacrifice of thanksgiving to the Lord, offer it of your own free will." (Lev. 22:29)
With a thankful heart
We will give You praise
You've been so good
Covered us with grace
You have been our strength
In a time so dark
So we worship You
With a thankful heart
"Oh come, let us worship and bow down; Let us kneel before the Lord our Maker."
(Psalm 95:6)
"Exalt the Lord our God, And worship at His footstool--He is holy." (Psalm 99:9)
We lift up our praise
And we lift up our
Sacrifice to You
Lord we offer our prayers
And we offer our
lives in gratitude
For all You do
We worship You
With a grateful heart...
Happy Thanksgiving!
I love you & He loves you more!
