Psalm 100:1-5

Shout joyfully to the Lord, all the earth. Serve the Lord with gladness; Come before Him with joyful singing. Know that the Lord Himself is God; It is He who has made us, and not we ourselves; We are His people and the sheep of His pasture. Enter His gates with thanksgiving And His courts with praise. Give thanks to Him, Bless His name. For the Lord is good; His lovingkindness is everlasting And His faithfulness is to all generations.

And now, Israel, what does the Lord your God require of you? He requires only that you fear the Lord your God, and live in a way that pleases him, and love him and serve him with all your heart and soul.

3) Giving Thanks Is About COMING Before God

James 1:17
Whatever is good and perfect is a gift coming down to us from God our Father, who created all the lights in the heavens.

4) Giving Thanks Is About Getting to KNOW God

Psalm 139:13
You made all the delicate, inner parts of my body and knit me together in my mother’s womb.

5) Giving Thanks Is About ENTERING His Gates

6) Giving Thanks Is About SACRIFICE

Romans 12:1
And so, dear brothers and sisters, I plead with you to give your bodies to God because of all he has done for you. Let them be a living and holy sacrifice — the kind he will find acceptable. This is truly the way to worship him.

7) Giving Thanks Is About BLESSING The Lord
