Thanksgiving Can Raise The Dead!
41… And Jesus lifted up His eyes and said, “Father, I thank You that You have heard Me. 42And I know that You always hear Me…
John 11:41–42
After Jesus had said these words, He cried with a loud voice, “Lazarus, come forth!” And the man who had been dead for four days came out of his tomb!
This is one of the greatest miracles that Jesus performed. Lazarus had been dead for four days when Jesus raised him to life. Wouldn’t you agree that death is indeed an extreme problem? Having no money in the bank, being sick and losing your job, bad as they are, are not as bad as being dead!
But what I want you to see is this: If Jesus, in the most extreme of problems, shows us that the solution is still, “Father, I thank You,” then how much more should we thank God in the midst of the less serious problems we face. If thanksgiving can raise the dead, then let us give thanks in spite of the negative circumstances and we will see victory.
Unfortunately, we tend to do the opposite — murmur and complain. But murmuring and complaining only magnify the problem. Thanksgiving, on the other hand, is the language of faith that pleases God. I am not saying that we give thanks for the problems we have. No, we thank God that He is our answer and that He has already given every blessing to us. (Ephesians 1:3)
“But Pastor Enoch, what I have is so little.”
My friend, thank God for the little you have and it will multiply. Jesus thanked His Father for the five barley loaves and two small fish, a little boy’s lunch, and they were multiplied to feed more than 5,000 people with 12 baskets full of leftovers! (John 6:8–13) And notice that when the Holy Spirit talked about this event again, He specifically mentioned the Lord giving thanks — “the place where they ate bread after the Lord had given thanks”. (John 6:23) The Holy Spirit seemed to be more pleased with the act of giving thanks than the miracle of multiplication or the 12 baskets full of leftovers.
Beloved, the more you thank God, the more you please Him. What little you have will be multiplied and whatever is dead in your life will be raised to life!

The secret of thanksgiving cannot be replaced with anything! When we give thanks, we open a door to the miraculous. When we give thanks, we make the Father know that we appreciate Him, henceforth, opening the door to answered prayers. If Jesus Himself can give thanks to the Father, who are we to stop thanking Him for all that He has done?! Thanksgiving shall never depart from my mouth no matter how big or small the reason is! Thank You Lord, I am so grateful unto You 🙏🏾✝️🌸. Thank you so much for this powerful devotion Sir 🌻✝️

PHILIPPIANS 4:4-7
Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice! Let your gentleness be evident to all. The Lord is near. Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus..
With every breath that take Lord thank you.

Thank you Pastor
Beloved, the more you thank God, the more you please Him. What little you have will be multiplied and whatever is dead in your life will be raised to life!
If you need something dead to come alive in your life, if you need multiplication in your life then you need to start living the life of thanksgiving.
Thank you Pastor for the opportunity to be blessed through thanksgiving.

I give God thanks in all situations for my God is the God that manifests the impossible and unimaginable, even in the most difficult situations. However my understanding on thanksgiving goes beyond the related circumstances, because my Father truly deserves all the praise. Lord, I’m grateful and I will honour you with my praise daily.
Thank you Papa and more increased grace Sir

Our thanksgiving should be even more in times of need. It is easy to be thankful when things are good, but our thanksgiving is truly tested in hard times. No matter how bad things are, you are still able to draw breath and thank the Lord. This is a sign of solid faith.
For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. Then you will call on me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you. You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart.
Jeremiah 29:11-13 NIV
God has the plan, it is not for us to question the plan, but rest assured that, as it is written, so shall it be.
Thank you Pastor, this is very timely
