Albeit a day late, Step With Christ Ministries would like to extend our Heartfelt blessings of Thanksgiving to our Fellowship Family, our Southern Maine partner Churches, our inter-church
Ministry and Missionary Partners, and most of all to Our Loving and Gracious Father, Savior, and Holy Spirit whom provide all ' Manna ', equaling the joyful sustenance promised us in Holy Scripture.
Very eloquently and concisely put forward by Yeshua 's early Christian and Apostolic Church,
" Thanksgiving is a natural development of Christian Worship ( 1 Cor. 16-17 ) and is to characterize all Christian Life ( Col. 2:7; 4:2 ) ... Thankfulness was expressed for national Deliverance ( Ps. 44: 7-8 ), God's Covenant Faith ( Ps. 100:5 ), and Personal Thankfulness to
God, ( Adonai ) ( Ps 35:19 )
Thanksgiving,... Gratitude directed toward God, generally in response to God's concrete
acts in history. Thanksgiving was very central to OLD TESTAMENT worship, ultimately and
cohesively adding to the paramount fact that The Holy Bible is ONE HARMONIOUS BOOK !
Last night when I began this Thanksgiving blog post, I reflected on the multitude of God sent blessings I and we have received this year. There were many !, despite the very fact that day by day,
Godly Morality seems to become more and more convoluted. This could very easily be the case for a great many people. But as Children of God, as we mature, we learn to look for Godly signs, and
what we have begun to call, ... " Affirmations by Our Father ".
How easy it is to be caught in the 'doom n' gloom' of what certainly seems like a failing morality.
But I beg of you , ..... Please look back at Franklin Graham's DECISION AMERICA 2016
Prayer Rally Prayer, which is simply a strong and powerful Prayer for God's protection and Intervention. A Prayer,..... an unequivocal Biblical Prayer, which has been used and ANSWERED
time and time again throughout Biblical HISTORY. I speak of course of Franklin Graham's 2nd
Chronicles prayer plea.
I do indeed believe with a completely circumcised heart, that God's people have Prayed in zeal and fervently for God to realize our heartfelt repentance, and Prayed for Him to hear, and for God to heal our land.
At this point my brethren, if we look for His signs, it certainly appears to many that God has indeed heard our cries from Heaven. Indeed, and with steadfast Faith in God, it appears He has afforded his children a sort of reprieve. ( Is it not a bit sad, that many people and things must become completely broken, for us to whole-heartedly realize that Christ,Jesus IS OUR ONLY HOPE! ),
and that He has been there longing for us to reach out for His Healing Love.
So, in closing, I would like to reflect back to my sermon titled " Every Day is National Prayer Day"
Just alike Nat'l Prayer Day, in our endless effort to be pleasing in the eyes of the Father, and in respect, reverence, and DEEP THANKSGIVING, for the Calvary Love Sacrifice of Our Savior
Yeshua, Jesus, let's make every day a Thanksgiving Day to our Creator and Sustainer !
Starting Each Day as a Christ-Centered Day, will assure our due Thanksgiving to our Almighty!
