2023 Retreat Preparatory Prayers - Day 21: Giving God Thanks

“Oh come, let us sing to the Lord; let us make a joyful noise to the rock of our salvation! Let us come into his presence with thanksgiving; let us make a joyful noise to him with songs of praise! For the Lord is a great God, and a great King above all gods.”
— Psalm 95:1-3

We have been waiting on the Lord all these 21 days. Today we just have to dwell in his presence, worship him, and thank him for all his faithfulness.

Hebrews 12:28-29 “Therefore, since we are receiving a kingdom that cannot be shaken, let us be thankful, and so worship God acceptably with reverence and awe, for our 'God is a consuming fire.” Thank the Lord for bringing us into his unshakable kingdom where every blessing of the Lord for us is secured.

Psalm 107:8-9 “Let them give thanks to the Lord for his unfailing love and his wonderful deeds for mankind, for he satisfies the thirsty and fills the hungry with good things." Thank the Lord for his unfailing love and all he has done for us through the years.

Psalm 28:7 “The Lord is my strength and my shield; my heart trusts in him, and he helps me. My heart leaps for joy, and with my song I praise him." Thank the Lord for being our strength and shield even during this time of prayer and fasting and even beyond.

1 Thessalonians 5: 16-18 “Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you.” Thank the Lord for every circumstances we may have encountered this year and this season of waiting on him.

Psalm 7:17 “I will give thanks to the Lord because of his righteousness; I will sing the praises of the name of the Lord Most High.”

Thank the Lord for our righteousness which is only found in him alone.

Psalm 9:1 “I will give thanks to you, Lord, with all my heart; I will tell of all your wonderful deeds.”

Thank the Lord for the retreat and everything related to the retreat.

Thank the Lord for safe trip.

Thank the Lord for his presence, protection, provision, visitation and the manifestation of his power during the retreat and every aspect of the trip of the Father’s house to Ghana.
