Enter His gates with a song of thanksgiving And His courts with praise. Be thankful to Him, bless and praise His name.
Dear Ones: Enter His gates! The protocol for entering into His gates is to be thankful for all His blessings. Songs of thanksgiving are a key to opening these gates of majestic beauty. In this season of Thanksgiving, we should remember to truly give thanks to the One Who has kept this nation through many trials and dark days. The Pilgrims knew that their bounty came from the blessings of the Lord. He protected them during the very harsh and early days of their settlement. He caused the native peoples to befriend them and to help them learn how to farm in the New World.
The American spirit is very closely aligned with the heart of Thanksgiving. The challenges of using our liberty and freedoms wisely are not a small thing. With grateful hearts we can sing the songs of liberty and freedom because our God continually watches over us.
May you enter His gates with thankful songs this week. Let Him know you recognized His handy work in your life, in your family, and in your nation. He is a good, good God and wants the best for His children. That is enough reason to go to Him this Thanksgiving and give Him praise. Have a wonderful family week. Remember to invite Him to join you at your table. I bless you in Jesus’ name.
