Thanksgiving! Week nine in our prayer summit.

 Its been an amazing nine weeks!
We are on our final week of Pray for Monroe prayer summit. We've witnessed so many things in our own personal lives as well as those who we've been praying with.  This weeks theme in on THANKSGIVING". We are spending our time together giving thanks to our God - for He is, what's He's doing and what He is about to do.

 

Here is a list of some scriptures to help guide you into a deeper heart of thankfulness.

Give thanks for who God is:
Psalm 136:2-3 - Give thanks to the God of gods. His faithful love endures forever. Give thanks to the Lord of lords. His faithful love endures forever. 

1 Chronicles 16:8-9 - Give thanks to the LORD and proclaim his greatness. Let the whole world know what he has done. Sing to him; yes, sing his praises. Tell everyone about his miracles.

Give thanks to God and what He has done:
Psalm 136:4-9 - Give thanks to him who alone does mighty miracles. His faithful love endures forever. Give thanks to him who made the heavens so skillfully. His faithful love endures forever. Give thanks to him who placed the earth on the water. His faithful love endures forever. Give thanks to him who made the heavenly lights -- His faithful love endures forever. The sun to rule the day, His faithful love endures forever and the moon and stars to rule the night. His faithful love endures forever.

Give Thanks to God regarding His love, goodness and faithfulness:
Psalm 118:1 - Give thanks to the LORD, for he is good! His faithful love endures forever.
Psalm 138:2

They will sing, `Give thanks to the LORD Almighty, for the LORD is good. His faithful love endures forever!' For I will restore the prosperity of this land to what it was in the past, says the LORD.

Give thanks to God for our daily provision, answer to prayer, and for others:
Romans 14:6 - Those who have a special day for worshiping the Lord are trying to honor him. Those who eat all kinds of food do so to honor the Lord, since they give thanks to God before eating. And those who won't eat everything also want to please the Lord and give thanks to God.
