Day 5: Praying with Thanksgiving

Scripture:

Philippians 4:6 - "Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God."

Devotional:

Gratitude is a powerful component of prayer. When we approach God with thanksgiving, we acknowledge His goodness and faithfulness in our lives. This attitude of gratitude shifts our focus from our problems to His provisions, filling our hearts with peace and joy.

Reflection:

• Think about the blessings in your life. How can you express your gratitude to God?
• Consider any areas where you might be taking God's blessings for granted.

Action:

• Write a list of things you are thankful for and spend time thanking God for each one.
• Share your gratitude with someone else to spread joy and encouragement.
