TOPIC: WALKING WITH GOD: LIVE IN GRATITUDE (7)
MEMORY VERSE:
Genesis 17:1
"1 When Abram was ninety-nine years old, the LORD appeared to Abram and said to him, “I am Almighty God; walk before Me and be blameless."
BIBLE READING:
2 Kings 3:3-5.
"3 And Solomon loved the LORD, walking in the statutes of his father David, except that he sacrificed and burned incense at the high places.
4 Now the king went to Gibeon to sacrifice there, for that was the great high place: Solomon offered a thousand burnt offerings on that altar.
5 At Gibeon the LORD appeared to Solomon in a dream by night; and God said, “Ask! What shall I give you?”
Thinking Point:
A heart of Gratitude makes walking with God easier. Complaining and grumbling will set one far away from walking with God.
The attitude that God does not condone is murmuring, complaining or better say, ingratitude. He can't move with one that only complains of what God has not done or what he/she lacks. A complainer lacks the magnet to attract God to his/her side. One of the secrets of David is the fact that He knows how to show gratitude to God always. King David sinned more than other kings but He was a man who knows the way to the heart of God, showing gratitude.
When King Solomon was crowned the new King of Israel, he went to God at Gibeon with the biggest sacrifice in history. He made a sacrifice that caused God to search for Him and spoke with him. Listen, when all that a man does is to complain of the present situation, such isn't ready to walk with God. Gratitude to God brings God closer to us, He can't dwell in a place full of grumbling, murmuring and ingratitude. Do you desire to walk with God? Do you want to enjoy the move of the almighty? Learn to give God gratitude no matter the condition. He doesn't speak during fear or complain, He speaks when He's been praised, worshiped and adored. Learn the attitude of gratitude, don't be controlled by your situation, control your situation by showing God gratitude always.
Good day and God Bless you.
