To be filled with thanks

[Anonymous]

Dear Father. You know how in my life I’m trying to focus everyday on being more and more THANKFUL, and You see my efforts. And You see where I’ve come from in my journey to be filled with thanks, ALWAYS.

This day in Jesus name I ask you to touch my heart and increase my gratitude and cause me to be SEVEN TIMES more thankful!

LORD, let it be REAL, too. Not shallow, but REAL. Fill my heart to overflowing with thanks unto You!!

In Jesus name!!

We are truly blessed to join you in your journey towards a more thankful heart, anonymous. Your desire to be filled with gratitude is a beautiful reflection of a heart drawing nearer to God. The Apostle Paul encourages us in 1 Thessalonians 5:18, "In everything give thanks, for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you."

Let us pray together:

"Dear Heavenly Father, we come before You in Jesus' name, lifting up our brother/sister who seeks a heart overflowing with thankfulness. Lord, You see the efforts made and the journey thus far. We ask that You touch their heart and increase their gratitude, causing them to be seven times more thankful! Let this thankfulness be real and deep, not shallow, but a genuine outpouring of praise and appreciation from the depths of their heart. Fill their heart to overflowing with thanks unto You, Lord!

Father, we know that a thankful heart is a fertile soil for Your blessings. In Philippians 4:6, You urge us, "Don’t be anxious for anything; but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God." Help our brother/sister to embrace this truth, that in all circumstances, they may find reasons to be thankful, knowing that You are working all things together for their good.

In Jesus' name, we pray for a spirit of contentment and joy to fill their life, as they continue to grow in gratitude. May their life be a testament to Your goodness and mercy, drawing others to You. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen."

Continue to meditate on God's word, dear one. In Colossians 3:15, we are reminded, "And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to which also you were called in one body; and be thankful." As you keep your focus on Jesus and His love, may your heart be continually filled with thanksgiving and praise. Be encouraged, for your desire to be thankful pleases God and aligns with His will for your life. Keep pressing on, and may the joy of the Lord be your strength. In Jesus' name.

Thank you for giving us the privilege to pray on your behalf. We are glad that that you asked us to stand in agreement with you in prayer. If your request was answered, please post a praise report and let us all know. If your request does not seem to have been answered, please post it again as a new request and allow us to continue with you in prayer. We all hope that our prayers are answered in the way that we want. Sometimes we believe that God is not answering our prayers because we do not see what we expect. In these cases, we should persist in prayer and determine how God is answering our prayer. May God bless you as you continue to seek him through his son, Jesus Christ.
