“An Overflow of Thanksgiving”

 “An Overflow of Thanksgiving”

 

Because we know that the One who raised the Lord Jesus from the dead will also raise us with Jesus and present us with you in His presence.  All this is for your benefit, so that the grace that is reaching more and more people may cause thanksgiving to overflow to the glory of God.        2 Corinthians 4:14-15

 

Even though Thanksgiving is a few weeks away, we can still experience an OVERFLOW of THANKSGIVING to the LORD GOD ALMIGHTY.  This experience can happen EVERY DAY.  The Apostle Paul, in his letter to the Believers in Corinth, gave them something to cause them to be able to bask in the OVERFLOW of THANKSGIVING to Father God.  

 

That SOMETHING is the fact that the GRACE of GOD is reaching MORE and MORE people with the GOOD NEWS that JESUS, God’s Son DIED for the SALVATION of ALL of mankind.  And that the One who RAISED the LORD JESUS from the DEAD will also RAISE us with JESUS and present us to Himself. 

 

Our THANKSGIVING for God’s GLORIOUS GRACE, and His ABUNDANT MERCY, should OVERFLOW from our HEARTS to His Ears, and it should be an EVERY DAY action.  It is a MANDATE for EVERY TRUE BELIEVER, to REACH others by SHARING the GOOD NEWS that JESUS SAVES, and that ONLY through HIM can you obtain ETERNAL LIFE in HEAVEN, with ALL its BLESSINGS, and to be able to ESCAPE HELL with ALL its HORRORS, and NO WAY TO ESCAPE, once you are there. So, GET OUT THERE and BE a LIGHT to SOMEONES DARKNESS.

 

However, if you have not given your HEART and LIFE to God, through Jesus Christ, then you cannot be a LIGHT, and EXPERIENCE an OVERFLOW of THANKSGIVING to Him, and your ETERNAL DESTINY will be an ETERNITY in HELL.  In order to CHANGE that DESTINY, you MUST ADMIT that you are a SINNER in NEED of the SAVIOR, Jesus Christ.  You MUST BELIEVE with ALL your HEART, that JESUS died for YOU, and that He is ALIVE in Heaven, making intercession for you,  before God.  Then, with a TRUE REPENTANT HEART, you MUST CONFESS your sins to Him and ask Him for His FORGIVENESS. You MUST ACCEPT His Gift of SALVATION, and let your THANKSGIVING OVERFLOW to the Throne Room of the ALMIGHTY GOD.  And be able to spend your ETERNITY in HEAVEN.  Do this NOW, while you still can.   He’s WAITING and COMING SOON!!!
