April 7, 2020 Spirit Meat Devotional ;- HINDRANCES TO EFFECTIVE THANKSGIVING (1) - ISAIAH 14:12-17, NUMBERS 11:4-20, PHILIPPIANS 4:6

--> Note :- Are you born again? You are never going to win the battle against the devil if you are not born again. I plead with you to give your life to Jesus today because the longer you stay in sin and remain unsaved, the more hardened your nature becomes against the purpose and the way God wants you to be for His purpose. To give your life to Jesus now, say this prayer: “Father, I come to You in the name of Jesus. I know that I am a sinner and I cannot save myself but Jesus died for me and shed His blood that I might be saved. Today, I accept Jesus as my Lord and Saviour. Jesus, I ask You to come into my heart, be my Lord, wash me with Your blood and make me whole. I believe with my heart and confess with my mouth that Jesus is my Lord. Thank You for saving me. In Jesus' name I pray. Amen.” I congratulate you and welcome you to the family of God if you have sincerely said that prayer. Now you are fit to discover, know and walk in your destiny.

There are certain things we must be mindful of that can be hindrances to an effective life of thanksgiving. 

1. Selfishness. When you only think about yourself, you will not be able to see the doings of God in your life. 

2. Focusing on the remaining problem in your life You must not do that in the presence of God. When you come to thank God, let your focus be on what He has done and thank Him in advance for what He is going to do. 

3.  When you don’t deliberately look for what God has done amidst a lot of challenges.

In our country, Nigeria, there are enough things to complain about, but if you are going to be productive in your thanksgiving, you must deliberately look for what to thank God for. If you keep complaining about your wife, you will divorce her, but if you start looking for what you can thank God for in her, then your thanksgiving will be effective. Stop complaining and start thanking God for what your spouse is doing well. He provides for the children; she takes good care of the home... When you do this, it will spill over into other areas.

When my children were growing up, they never saw that Christians are bad, they never saw the challenges I was facing in the church. In fact, they thought that everybody is an angel. I have seen children of pastors that backslid because their parents showed them the pains of ministry, but my children never saw the pains of ministry. They thought that everybody were angels. Deliberately look for things to thank God for.

 

PRAYER: Dear Lord, help me to always focus on the things you have done and are doing in my life and not the challenges around in Jesus name.
