Swim In Gratitude

Swim In Gratitude


Ø 1 Thessalonians 5:18 New International Version
Give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus.

Ø Let gratitude be the pillow upon which you kneel to say your nightly prayer. And let faith be the bridge you build to overcome evil and welcome good.
---Maya Angelou

This is the day that the Lord has made; we shall be glad and rejoice in it. This is your time to be joyful and happy because good, great and glorious things are coming your way, to stay and abound in your life, for I see you rising above your situations, soaring high above the wind and coming out of the storm strong and victorious. Someone out there still don’t believe it is possible but I say to you, this is your portion, don’t rob yourself of it with your unbelief. Stand up; rejoice for you are speedily moving out of your trauma, tribulations, trouble and thorns of life that has inflicted pains on you. I say to you again rejoice, sing songs of praise and let your heart be glad because the word of the Lord comes to you today saying: Isaiah 60:1 ISV “Arise, shine! For your light has come; the glory of the LORD has risen upon you.

I am glad you read this message at this very stage of your life; it is very important that you put on the armor of praise and begin to swim in gratitude against all odds for you to achieve your desired life goals and manifest your glorious destiny. Life would not stop at anything to sweep you of your feet so that you wine and dine in regrets, failure, loss, hardship, trauma, psychological defects and so on, so that you lose your God-given vision and destiny, so that you don’t forge ahead but still if you choose to swim in gratitude always remembering that you have crossed so many rivers, overcame a lot of battles and risen above many challenges and believing that the best is yet to come, and you carry the potential and divine abilities to overcome battles of life and to soar like eagle when the wind come strong, your life will command respect from the forces of life.

You have come too far to breakdown now, why not give more time to swimming in gratitude and see how your life tend to attract mind blowing and unbelievable landslides and success. I tell you, choosing to swim in gratitude at all time, is a powerful awakening strength for you when the light of spirit seems to be burning low or about to die out because it just rekindle the fire in you and you just see yourself having great conquest, overtake those that have outrun you when you long stayed in self-pity and stay ahead of them. It is this simple but this is greatest secret to live a happy and meaningful life, I call it a secret because many know it but do not value it, they find it uneasy to tap into it when it will cost them nothing and they lose, to name few, the peace, hope, blessings, joy, victory, and so on and above it all, life indeed that comes with it.

Give thanks in all circumstances; enjoy everything life throws at you. I know many will disagree and say how can I enjoy hardship, disappointment, rejection, pains etc.? Yes you can and you should. I want you know or rather remind you that after every darkness comes the light, after sorrow comes joy, after every pain comes a gain, after every struggle and battle comes a victory and after every learning period comes an earning, if you can rightly position yourself with right mindset, making right decision and taking the right steps. What matter most in life is that you never get out of the ocean of gratitude, always in that mode that allows you to appreciate your life irrespective of the trials, trouble and tribulation you are faced with because right there is where you are assured of your confidence, strength, potentials, undisputable strength and abilities functioning under the influence of the grace, mercy and perfection of God.

Enjoy every day of your life swimming in gratitude, appreciate yourself, celebrate every little attainment you have though they seems not to count now but they will amass into great success in the nearest future, just as the saying goes “little drops of water make a mighty ocean” Keep giving your best to life, you will soon harvest its yield. Do not exercise fears anymore as to what will become of you but rejoice always even in your darkest hour because definitely the promise of God for you is to live a life of abundance and joyous victory.

My dear friend, just as you will be waiting to read from me again, clothe yourself with gratitude, sleep in it, wake up with it, go out with it and return with it, in fact live all your days on earth making gratitude the foundation of your life. Stay blessed, glorious, shinning, happy and thankful. God bless you!

God Loves  You
