On Giving Thanks and Praise to God




Psalm 50:23 It's the praising life that honors me.
As soon as you set your foot on the Way,
I'll show you my salvation."

2 Corinthians 9:12-15Carrying out this social relief work involves far more than helping meet the bare needs of poor Christians. It also produces abundant and bountiful thanksgivings to God. This relief offering is a prod to live at your very best, showing your gratitude to God by being openly obedient to the plain meaning of the Message of Christ. You show your gratitude through your generous offerings to your needy brothers and sisters, and really toward everyone. Meanwhile, moved by the extravagance of God in your lives, they'll respond by praying for you in passionate intercession for whatever you need. Thank God for this gift, his gift. No language can praise it enough!

2 Corinthians 2:14 But I thank God, who always leads us in victory because of Christ. Wherever we go, God uses us to make clear what it means to know Christ. It's like a fragrance that fills the air.
(GOD'S WORD® Translation)

1 Thessalonians 5:18 Whatever happens, give thanks, because it is God's will in Christ Jesus that you do this. (GOD'S WORD® Translation)

Psalm 106:1 Praise the LORD! Oh give thanks to the LORD, for He is good; For His lovingkindness is everlasting.

Psalm 105:1 Bible in Basic English
O give praise to the Lord; give honour to his name, talking of his doings among the peoples.

Psalm 35:18 I will give you thanks in the great assembly. I will praise you among many people.

Psalm 7:17 Bible in Basic English
I will give praise to the Lord for his righteousness; I will make a song to the name of the Lord Most High.

Ephesians 5:4 Obscene, flippant, or vulgar talk is totally inappropriate. Instead, let there be thanksgiving.
