Thankfulness as Worship

Daily Thought:

Hebrews 12 combines two components of prayer discussed in this resource. When we take a moment to be thankful for all God has done for us, we cannot help but worship him. In this way, a posture of gratitude is, in fact, a posture of worship. As we begin to thank God, we also give him the praise he deserves. Do you see how all these aspects of prayer work together? This kingdom can’t be shaken—what a gift!

Scripture Excerpt:

Hebrews 12:28-29, ESV

Therefore let us be grateful for receiving a kingdom that cannot be shaken, and thus let us offer to God acceptable worship, with reverence and awe, for our God is a consuming fire.

Prayer Point:

Today, let your thankfulness become praise and worship. Thank God for his will, your life, friends, family, church, city, etc. Let this posture of gratitude guide your eyes today. Pray that the Lord would open your eyes today to see all there is to be thankful for—and worship him for it!
