Success in Thanksgiving

Good Morning Sistas,
It's thankful Tuesday

But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.
1 Corinthians 15:57

When Jesus thanked God for the loaves and fishes, He was expressing gratitude to the Father for the provision. Jesus was not mindful of the amount, as the disciples were, but He was mindful of the source. Whenever we give thanks to God, we are respecting the source. This is important to recognize. We never need to fear what man has or lacks, but when we recognize the source we will always get the victory. Jesus was able to triumph over lack, because He thanked God for the seed (seven loaves, two fishes) but He had a vision for the full provision (feeding the multitude). The seed sown in thanksgiving brought in the harvest. Giving thanks brings success to the seed sown.

4HisGlory,
Elder G
