*ATTITUDE OF GRATITUDE*

Psalms 107:1, 21-22 (KJV)  

[1] *O give thanks unto the LORD, for he is good: for his mercy endureth for ever.*

[21] *Oh that men would praise the LORD for his goodness, and for his wonderful works to the children of men!*

[22] *And let them sacrifice the sacrifices of thanksgiving, and declare his works with rejoicing.*

Glory be to God for the privilege of seeing the last day of the month of June 2025 and the first half of the year. The Lord has been so good to us. In the midst of a multitude of opposition, our good Lord never allowed us to see evil. May His name be glorified forever. Beloved, it is time to count our blessings and God's faithfulness over our lives and families. We must lay it to heart and give Him quality thanks.

Psalm 103:1-2 (KJV)

[1] *Bless the Lord, O my soul: and all that is within me, bless his holy name.*

[2] *Bless the Lord, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits:*

Also, the abundance of graces working in our lives should provoke thanksgiving unto the Lord. The diverse abilities we are manifesting and higher possibilities we are commanding are proof of God's involvement in our affairs. All these must not be casualized. Proper appreciation should be rendered for His unspeakable gifts. 

2 Corinthians 9:14-15 (KJV)  

[14] *And by their prayer for you, which long after you for the exceeding grace of God in you.*

[15] *Thanks be unto God for his unspeakable gift.*

Besides, divine protection over us is unimaginable.

God is keeping us by His love and faithfulness. We must never forget to lay it to heart and give Him thanks. Even when there are few things that are yet to physically manifest. We must be celebrating Him and His words of promise to us.

Psalm 106:12 (KJV)

*Then believed they his words; they sang his praise.*

When faith moves you to praise, then you will move God to action. We must not only focus on the happenings around us, but our focus should be on the written word of God. In fact, the strength of our faith is determined by our capacity to praise and thank God ahead because thanksgiving is the end of faith.

*Beware of Murmuring and Complaining.*

1 Corinthians 10:10-11 (KJV)

[10] *Neither murmur ye, as some of them also murmured, and were destroyed of the destroyer.*

[11] *Now all these things happened unto them for examples: and they are written for our admonition, upon whom the ends of the world are come.*

We acknowledge that everything you want might not happen at once, but murmuring and complaining are not the way out. Murmuring opens ways for the destroyer. Complaining may attract the sympathy of men, but it will ultimately provoke the anger of God.

Attitude of gratitude is a virtue all must embrace. 

Beloved, put on your garment of praise, thanksgiving, and celebrate God like never before. 

Good morning, and do have a favour filled week.
