METAMORPHOSIS (Excerpts from Devotional Box - a daily devotional by Dr. Isaiah & Lianna Wealth. *** 1st December, 2014 *** TITLE: THE FOUNDATION OF GRATITUDE *** “I will mention the loving kindnesses of the LORD, and the praises of the LORD, according to all that the LORD hath bestowed on us, and the great goodness toward the house of Israel, which he hath bestowed on them according to his mercies, and according to the multitude of his loving kindnesses.” - (Isaiah 63:7) *** The benevolence of God is overwhelming; our text today expresses that. From the air we breathe, the life we live, to the provisions that we enjoy both in this life and in the spirit (2Pet. 1:3), no one can contest that we owe God even our very lives! True gratitude is built upon the understanding that God is the Source of all that we have received. It is a deep-seated resolution to lavish praise on the God of all goodness for every success we achieve, rather than ascribing undue praise and honour to our own intelligence, creativity, wealth, skills etc. This month, be ready to learn and put on the attitude of gratitude which would automate the cycle of God’s blessings upon your life. Never stop bringing to remembrance and mentioning all His blessings in your life, until thanksgiving becomes the life that you live. Glory to God! *** ISAIAH PROPHESIES: Let the high praises of God be in your mouth all through today in Jesus name. *** ACTION POINTS DO THIS: Set your heart to thank God throughout this month, start by remembering all He has done for you this year. SAY THIS: I decree and I declare that my life brings glory to God. *** STUDY YOUR BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: ZECHARIAH 1, ACTS 17, PSALMS 4 *** CHRISTIAN MISSION FOCUS ANGUILLA Anguilla is a small island with few people of over 15000. About 90% of their population is Christian. However, there is a need for the body of Christ to work together in the nation as Interdenominational cooperation is lacking. PRAY FOR ANGUILLA: We are praying for Anguilla for a mighty outpour of God’s Spirit upon the land that the nation would be known for righteousness. *** STARTUP PRAYER: Dear Father, thank you for all you have done in my life this year, help me to show my gratitude to you in Jesus name. *** PRAYER OF CONSECRATION Thank you Lord Jesus for a successful 2014, to you be all the praise and Glory for all my accomplishments in the course of the year. Oh Lord, as the year ends, i dedicate myself to you asking for you to guide me to serve you better and to be positioned for greater availability in your Kingdom. Let my body, soul & Spirit be preserved in your sight, in Jesus Name, Amen. * * * * * * * OTHER RESOURCES: Download the FREE Devotional Box App and enjoy the Audio version daily devotionalbox * * * Study devotionals on specific topics with our TOPICAL, STUDY at devotionalbox/topics.php * * * Chat with other users: devotionalbox/ discussion.php * * * LIKE us on Facebook at facebook/devotionalbox * * * You can also order the print edition of Metamorphosis, share your testimonies or make further enquiries by calling +234 813 520 3592 Happy New Month Have a nice day.
