Session 1:Text :Psalm 100:4, #prayerFocus- Appreciate to appreciate

Appreciate means-a. To be grateful(thankful), b. To recognize the full worth of something (value something) c. To rise in value.

When you are grateful (appreciate), you will rise in value.

However, when you disparage/deprecate someone/something, you will depreciate.

An example is Mariam, the elder sister of Moses. Miriam and Aaron began to talk against Moses and incurred the wrath of God. And she was afflicted – See Numbers 12.

As you enter the new year let your heart be pure towards all. Tonight is not a time to complain about what never happened for you. Be grateful for the things that did happen.

Murmurers never inherit the promises of God. The generation that perished in the wilderness were those who never appreciated God’s goodness, deliverance and manifold blessings.

They murmured against God and Moses and they depreciated and died out.

I leave you now so you can spend some quiet time being thankful for this year ending today.

God bless you
