\u201cWij danken God de Vader altijd voor alles, in de naam van onze Heer Jezus Christus.\u201d<\/em>
Efezi\u00ebrs 5:20<\/strong><\/em><\/p>

Het is zo makkelijk om je te laten meeslepen door wat we niet hebben, dat we vergeten dankbaar te zijn voor wat we w\u00e9l hebben. Doen<\/em> We kunnen ontmoedigd raken. Ik hoorde ooit een verhaal over een man die de zaadschuur van de duivel vond. Het was de plek waar de duivel de zaden bewaarde die hij in de harten en levens van mensen zaait. De man merkte dat er een enorme overvloed was van \u00e9\u00e9n bepaald soort zaad: het zaad van ontmoediging. Toen hij de duivel vroeg waarom hij er zoveel van had, antwoordde de duivel: "Als ik ontmoediging in iemands leven kan zaaien, dan kan ik bijna alles wat ik wil in zijn leven krijgen. De zaden van ontmoediging zullen bijna overal ontkiemen, behalve in het hart van iemand die dankbaar is."\u201c<\/p>

We leven in een tijd waarin er zoveel ondankbaarheid is. Paulus vertelde Timote\u00fcs zelfs dat dit een kenmerk zou zijn van de mensen in de laatste dagen (2 Tim. 3:2). Romeinen 1:21 herinnert ons eraan dat het nalaten om dank te zeggen een kenmerk is van de goddelozen. \u201cHoewel ze God kenden, verheerlijkten ze Hem niet als God en brachten ze Hem geen dankzegging.\u201d<\/em><\/p>

Maar de Bijbel geeft ons veel positieve aanmoediging over het onderwerp dankbaarheid. Hij benadrukt herhaaldelijk het belang van dankbaarheid:<\/p>

  • \u201c"Breng een dankgebed aan God"\u201d<\/em> (Psalm 50:14).<\/p><\/li>

  • \u201cO, dat de mensen de Heer zouden danken voor Zijn goedheid en voor Zijn wonderbaarlijke werken voor de mensen! Laten zij dankoffers brengen en Zijn werken met vreugde verkondigen!\u201d<\/em> (Psalm 107:21-22).<\/p><\/li>

  • \u201cHet is goed de Heer te danken en lofliederen te zingen tot Uw naam, o Allerhoogste.\u201d<\/em> (Psalm 92:1).<\/p><\/li>

  • \u201cWij danken God de Vader altijd voor alles, in de naam van onze Heer Jezus Christus.\u201d<\/em> (Efezi\u00ebrs 5:20).<\/p><\/li>

  • \u201cEn wat u ook doet, in woord of daad, doe het alles in de naam van de Heer Jezus, en dank God de Vader door Hem.\u201d<\/em> (Kol. 3:17).<\/p><\/li>

  • \u201cLaten wij daarom door Hem voortdurend het offer van lof aan God brengen, namelijk de vrucht van onze lippen, door Zijn naam te danken.\u201d<\/em> (Hebree\u00ebn 13:15).<\/p><\/li><\/ul>

    \u00a0<\/p>

    Ankerpunt voor vandaag:<\/strong>
    Dankbaarheid zou door moeten klinken in onze woorden, onze liederen en onze gebeden!<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
