NOTES
The Lord will remind you of stuff that happened in the past, so that you can be thankful.
Are you thankful for the things that others have done for you?
You need to call upon God and let him know that you trust and need Him in your life.
You can use Psalms 105 as a guide on how to give thanks unto the Lord.
O give thanks unto the Lord; call upon his name: make known his deeds among the people.
People today talk about the deeds of others, but not about the deeds of the Lord.
God has done miraculous things in front of someone’s eyes and they’re still not thankful for what
He has done.
You can want to be better, but not take the action to be better.
You have to be committed to singing unto the Lord.
Are you willing to drop your pride and humble yourself to worship God?
You can be labeled quiet, but it is not okay to be quiet for the Lord.
If your seeking God, you should be happy and rejoicing. God should make you happy.
You cannot make it in this life without God. You will have problems and you will not have joy or
strength. God can do things that you cannot control.
You are weak without the Lord.
Do you know what marvelous works God has done?
Do you know God personally? Do you treat Him like He is someone special?
When your God’s people, He will watch over you and protect you. He will keep you from evil if
you trust in Him.
Just because God is protecting you doesn’t mean you won’t be tested.
With all the devil is trying to do in your life, doesn’t mean you cannot be protected.
God does some things to show you how powerful and mighty He is.
Be thankful to the Lord for giving you wisdom to be prepared for things down the road.
Go home, look around, and see all the things God has did for you. Ask yourself, Are you
thankful?
