Prayer For Thankfulness

God,

Sometimes life gets me down and I find it hard to see things to be thankful for. Open my eyes to see the gifts you've given me in my life. I'm going to start by thanking you for loving me enough to come to earth and die so we can live together forever.

Amen.


Dear God,

Thank you for your amazing power and work in our lives, thank you for your goodness and for your blessings over us. Thank you that you are Able to bring hope through even the toughest of times, strengthening us for your purposes. Thank you for your great love and care. Thank you for your mercy and grace. Thank you that you are always with us and will never leave us. Thank you for your incredible sacrifice so that we might have freedom and life. Forgive us for when we don't thank you enough, for who you are, for all that you do, for all that you've given. Help us to set our eyes and our hearts on you afresh. Renew our spirits, fill us with your peace and joy. We love you and we need you, this day and every day. We give you praise and thanks, for You alone are worthy!

In Jesus' Name,

Amen.


Bless the Lord Oh my soul and all that is within me bless and praise Your holy name, for You sent Your only begotten Son to die on the cross to pay the price for my sins and to endure so much suffering and humiliation, on my account.

Thank You, that in Your love and mercy, the Lord Jesus took all the punishment for my sin and was subjected to no end of humiliation and reproach for love of those He came to save, and Lord that includes me. How I praise and thank You for this greatest of all miracles of Your grace.

What a joy to know that in dying on the cross, He broke the power of sin and Satan, death and hell, and is seated on the right hand of the Father in heaven, awaiting that time when He will accomplish His earthly mission and return to set up His kingdom on earth, where Israel will become the head and not the tail of the nations and all those that are part of the Body will rule and reign with Him, until all His enemies are under His feet and Christ is all is all.

Praise God for Jesus, and thank You that He is my Saviour and God. In His name I pray,

Amen.


How I praise You Lord for every day of my life, for my family and friends and all the good things that You have provided for me in Your love and grace. Lord, You have blessed all those that trust in Your Son with every spiritual blessing, for You have saved us by His blood and clothed us in His own perfect righteousness. You have poured out Your grace into our laps in great abundance.

I thank You, Lord, for every day of my life, for every single hour which has been given to me by grace. I could not ever draw another breath unless You gave me the power. How can I ever thank You enough, my God and my Saviour?

Lord, I know that there is nothing that I have done to deserve this favour from You, nor is there anything that I can do to repay You for all your loving-kindness and merciful blessings which are new every single day.

I pray that I may give my life as a living sacrifice of praise to You, for You alone are worthy, You alone are the Lord. You alone deserve all honour and glory and praise and worship, not only today but in the eternal ages to come. Hallelujah!

Amen.


Dear Father God, thank You for Your Son Jesus Christ our Saviour and for the salvation that we have received through trusting in His death on the cross and His resurrection. My heart overflows with grateful thanks and praise for His amazing sacrifice for sin.

Thank You, that He was sent to pay the price for my sins and the sins of the whole world. Lord, I simply want to live in Him and be rooted in Him. I pray that I may grow in grace, mature in the faith and to find my strength in Him.

There is no greater blessing that You could have given to us than the precious life of Your only begotten Son, so that in Him we may be redeemed from death and hell and receive forgiveness of sins and everlasting life.

I pray that I may live my life in a manner that glorifies You. I just thank You, Father, for Your amazing gift of salvation, and pray that many who have not accepted Jesus as their Saviour may do so before it is too late. This I ask in His dear names sake,

Amen.


Dear Lord Jesus, how we praise and thank You for Your sacrificial death on the cross of Calvary and that to all Who believe in You, it has become the glorious tree of life. Thank You for bearing my sin and shame, and for extending Your arms of love so wide as to embrace me in those nail pierced hands.

Thank You, that Your blood that was spilled on Calvary's cross, has washed away all my sin, cleansed me and made me whole. Thank You, that You rose again on the third day and ascended on high bringing eternal life and conquering death for ever.

Lord, it is a real mystery to realise that God Himself came to earth to die for me, but I believe it to be true. Thank You for being my Saviour.

Thank You for redeeming and saving me, and forgiving me and loving me. Thank You for coming to earth to die for me, so that I might be saved and come and live with You forever. Praise Your holy name for ever and ever,

Amen.


Heavenly Father, thank You that You know all about me and that You even knew that one day I would accept the Lord Jesus Christ as my Lord and Saviour. Father, I don't understand this, but I do believe it because Your Word says that it is true, and that before the world began, You knew all about me and predestined me to be Your child in Christ.

Father, the incredible privileges and tremendous blessings that are mine, simply because I have trusted in Christ Jesus are amazing, and I praise and thank You for all Your goodness and loving-kindness to me.

I pray that I may live a godly life that is pleasing to You, and that all I say and do may honour Your name, for it is such a privilege to be Your child and I want to serve You with my whole being. I ask that You would use me to tell forth the glorious gospel of grace to all whom You put into my path.

Father, so many are lost and weary, sad and sorrowing, discouraged and depressed, but I pray that many will come to faith in the Lord Jesus Christ and be adopted into Your family, and we will sing of Your praises throughout eternity for the amazing grace that You have shown to so many.

Thank You, Father, for adopting us into Your family and seating us together with Christ in heavenly places. In Jesus' name,

Amen.


Dear Father God, I come before You with a grateful heart for the many blessing that You bestow on us day by day, and praise You that Your mercies are new every morning and You have provided for all our needs, and more besides. You are a great and generous God.

You are so good to all Your creation and have faithfully supplied all our needs, according to Your riches and grace, just as You have promised.

I love that hymn where it says, count your blessings, see what God has done, and Father, I do count the many blessings that come from You day by day. Please forgive me for the times when I taken for granted the many gifts and graces that come from You. I could not draw another breath unless You give me the strength, and yet moment by moment, I am being kept in Your love and sustained by Your grace. Praise Your glorious name, for ever and ever,

Amen.
