Basking in the Glory of God.
Gratitude is the state of our hearts when we experience acts of godliness. A heart that is grateful translates through our words, posture and actions. Intentional thanksgiving is the ability to present yourself with a grateful heart and a song that wells from a deep place of absolute appreciation. Simply put, when you are grateful, you will be stirred to give thanks.
Our inability to give thanks simply tells how bound we are to ourselves because thanksgiving opens us up to what lies outside of ourselves. It shows how we perceive ourselves as well as life in totality. It restricts and limits our ability to bask in the overflow of joy, peace love and everything that we cannot offer ourselves. However, our ability to give thanks opens us up to see the details, helps us to appreciate life together with receiving capacity for more experiences.
In the beginning, God stepped into the situation with an agenda which possibly included; unveiling glory and greatness. He had a plan with you and I in mind.
It appears to me that His initial steps did not physically make sense but then again, He knows the end from the beginning and the beginning from the end. He’s the God who knows all things and sees all things so it ended in beauty and splendor.
We experience Him in every single detail only if we give ourselves the opportunity to walk closely with Him because He is everywhere. He is in the deepest depths and highest heights. He’s everything and everything is Him. He’s God all by himself.
There are more layers and levels you will begin to experience when you walk with God. What He reveals to you, speaks volumes through you. Every experience and situation has an agenda attached to glory.
There are dimensions untold that urges you to give yourself up more and more through the process.
This helps us to ascend beyond the seen situations presented in our physical world to the unseen beauty of what is written concerning us in heavenly places. We are then able to step aside to allow glory to manifest in whichever way possible; which in turn communicates our trust in God beyond our human comprehension. This action from us; captures God’s attention and gives God the permission to have His way with us to reveal himself through us.
When the nature of God becomes your daily experience through His daily acts; thanksgiving becomes your default and daily response.

There are days that His love, joy, peace, kindness etc are revealed through our lives.
There are days that the strength, mercy, help, wisdom and power of God are experienced because of what life presents us.
No situation is a waste because God is not a waster.
He is the sovereign God and He has a plan and a purpose for everything.
Only if we can see life from His perspective; we will be able to walk right into glory.ou waiting to be seen and experienced!
God doesn’t share His glory with anyone however, He chooses to reveal His glory through us.
He delights in us and rejoices when we thrive.
In this season, may your hope be restored.
May you encounter the light of God that reveals the glory thereof. Hallelujah!
SOUL PRAYER :
I cannot fathom your nature O God.
What a wonder you are!
In you there’s no sin yet you called us (a people filled with sin) unto yourself and wrapped us in glory that we may be found with no sin!
You are all these and more.
O mighty one!
I give you thanks!
I praise you!
INTENTIONAL EXERCISE :
