Prayer, Supplication, & Thanksgiving

Be careful for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God. Philippians 4:6

The Greek for careful: merimnao (to be anxious, or troubled). God is telling us there is NO reason to be merimnao…anxious, worried, stressed, troubled for anything or any reason. All is in His Hands. He is working all things together for our benefit (Romans 8:28). But, it is Truth. The remedy if we are looking for one is this: by prayer and supplication with THANKSGIVING let our requests be made known unto God.

Prayer is communing with God. Spiritual interaction in Holy Soul.

Supplication is to make known our particular needs. God already knows, but He tells us we are to speak them to Him.

THANKSGIVING is the kicker. We have people, or events, or the total of circumstances that can cause stress, anxiety, a troubled mind…all in the carnal mind. Never in the Mind of God.

Dear Saints, know this, it is this mindset of THANKSGIVING in ALL things to God that differentiates the Mind of God and the carnal mind. Thanksgiving and praise to God only come from the Mind of God. This same Paul gave thanks to God for putting him into the ministry (to face and endure all the trials and tribulations and hardships that came with it).

By prayer and supplication with THANKSGIVING. We have many people, events, or the total of circumstances that we can THANK God for!
