Called to a position of thanks to the Lord

Dr. Roberto Miranda
(Audio: Spanish)

SUMMARY: The psalmist David calls us to a posture of gratitude and recognition of all the blessings we receive from the Lord. Praising the Lord should be a discipline, just like prayer and reading the Word. Praising the Lord is a weapon of war, as seen in the story of Paul and Silas in prison. Praising the Lord strengthens our faith and reinforces our trust in Him. We should always thank the Lord before asking for anything. Gratitude is the healthiest thing we can do, and our prayers should always be padded and wrapped in a word of gratitude.

The speaker believes that expressing gratitude to God naturally produces serotonin, which creates a feeling of well-being and joy. They encourage living a life of gratitude and praise every day, not just on Thanksgiving. The speaker also shares a Bible passage about giving thanks to God for everything. They end their talk with a prayer of adoration and gratitude to God.


Bless Jehovah my soul and bless his holy name to all my being. Bless Jehovah my soul and do not forget any of his benefits. You are the one who forgives all your iniquities, the one who heals all... the one who rescues your life from the hole, the one who crowns you with favors and mercies, the one who satisfies your mouth with good so that you rejuvenate like the eagle.

The psalmist David's call to a posture of gratitude to the Lord, of recognition of all the blessings we receive from his hand day after day. The Lord calls us to that posture of gratitude to him always. One of the hallmarks of a mature child of God must be precisely gratitude, praise, continually thanking the Lord for his blessings and for everything he does for us day after day.
