By Pst Israel Olorunfemi

Ps 116:17 "I will offer to thee the sacrifice of thanksgiving, and will call upon the name of the Lord."

If this year will end with outstanding change of story for you, then take note of these very important points:

(1) Have an attitude of gratitude.

You must be willing and ready to thank and praise God in everything in your life. Thank Him even in your  difficulties. The Bible says: "In every thing, give thanks..." In whatever situation you are in now, give Him thanks. It is a sacrifice of your thanksgiving that today's anchor scripture speaks about. If you do this genuinely, it can turn your troubles to triumph (Heb 13:15 ).

(2) Don't complain about anything this season, no matter how bad it may seem.

During difficult times, be very careful of your tongue. Instead of complaining, think of ways you can verbally and tokenly offer God the sacrifice of your thanksgiving. When Jesus was faced with the challenge of feeding the five thousand men, He gave thanks (John 6). When you complain you complicate the whole issue.

(3) Don't compare yourself with others.

Don't wish that your life was different. God knows what is best for you. The Bible says having a thankful heart is God's will for you in Christ Jesus. When we begin to thank God for what we have rather than comparing ourselves with others, it opens the door for God's blessings.

PRAYER: You shall not end this year empty. There shall be sudden turnaround for you, in Jesus name.
