Happy Thanksgiving
This holiday is about giving thanks to God for all the blessings that He has given us this year!
The Pilgrims and the Natives came together to celebrate and give thanks for all the bountiful harvest.
We live in a world that thinks Thanksgiving is all about the Turkey
Every good thing given and every perfect gift is from above!
We are not entitled!
Even perfect gifts can be used wrongly
Father of Lights
Realize this, the light from the Sun never fades, the world turns away.
With whom there is no variation
God never changes! He is the same yesterday, today and tomorrow
His light does not create a shadow. In His light, there is no darkness at all.
In His will, He brought us forth by the Word of truth
Salvation doesn’t come because we want it to come,
In fact, natural man would never seek salvation
It is by His will, through His Word, that salvation comes
First fruits
The first fruits were an offering back to God for His blessings
As first fruits, our job is to glorify God by living for Him daily
This year, like every year, we have much to be thankful for indeed
Do you know the God of salvation?
Let this truly be your first Thanksgiving!

The Pain Of Waiting
A little history on LamentationsAlso called the Lamentations of Jeremiah
The Book of Lamentations is the collection of five poems or songs mourning the conquest of Jerusalem and the Kingdom of Judah.
The tone of the book of Jeremiah is very heavy as God’s Judgement had come
However, today’s text is Jeremiah remembering Hope in the hard times
I recall hope
The Lord’s Mercies
His compassions never fail
They are new every morning
Great is Your faithfulness
The Lord is my portion
I Hope in Him
Wait for Him and seek Him
Hope and wait quietly
Waiting is excruciating for today’s "2-day delivery" generation
However, if we take the time of waiting to examine and seek and spend time quietly listening to the Lord,
The pain of waiting will become joy in the Hope of Christ.

From Dread To Joy
In this passage today David has approached God to basically complain about the wickedness all around himAs we go through this Psalm today, notice the similarities of our world today.
Hear my voice O Lord!
Preserve my life from the dread of the enemy!
Hide me from the secret plots
They attack suddenly
Evil purpose
They devise injustices
Men’s hearts
God’s arrow
Suddenly
They will stumble
They will fear
The righteous will be glad!
The righteous will take refuge
Dread will become Joy!
Do you know the God that can turn dread to joy?

Service
"Have this attitude"
KJV
"Let this mind"This is a choice
Jesus existed in the form of God
He didn’t cling to His Deity but embraced His humanity
In His humanity He became as a bond-servant
Remember, a bond-servant was one who chose to serve, even though they were free to choose not to
Being made in the likeness of men
He humbled Himself when He became obedient
Jesus humility was one of suffering
He served even when it was hard and humiliating
Today’s Christian needs to remember that humility is not weakness
Jesus humbled Himself as a man to be obedient to God
To show us exactly how we should serve God
Today we can serve in many ways even in our own church
Jesus humbled Himself and was obedient even to the point of death on the cross
He obediently suffered for the whole world to see
Are you willing to obediently serve God today that others may see Jesus?
