Thanksgiving to the God of Deliverance

It’s my divine duty to let others know of the goodness of the Lord
His willingness and faithfulness produce hope, so I can move forward;

Yes, I am blessed and highly favored
But it’s even better when I can share His goodness with neighbors;

He has redeemed me from my enemies
Now, I can see, Who is the true Friend of me;

He seeks out the lost, troubled, and hurt
He delivers them from distress even when undeserving;

That’s why thanksgiving remains on my tongue
I can testify as a witness where my freedom comes from;

There should be rejoicing when things are well, or even in sickness
Where praise starts and finishes, there should be much thanksgiving;

Storms will come, but He will not save us from them
Storms will come, yet He will deliver us out of them;

The Lord simply wants us to call His name
He wants to be our go-to, even in our shame;

As I continue to exhibit rebellion
I deny His help and reject His dominion;

He desires us to cry out solely to Him
He desires repentance for our ongoing sins;

Forgive me Father and thank You for helping me in the wilderness
You are worthy of thanksgiving, as You paved the way for my deliverance.

Prayer: You are worthy of thanksgiving! I rejoice that You have authority over me. Time after time You have saved and delivered me. So, I thank You, Lord! I know Your lovingkindness. Now, I will share it with others. In the matchless name of Jesus Christ. Amen!
