Give thanks in and for everything even during difficult times. When your days seem to be darkened by disappointment or depression, offer the sacrifice of thanksgivng. Remember how Paul and Silas sang praises to Me in their prison cell. They could do this because their hearts and minds were focused on Me, not their circumsthances.
When you truly believe that everything in your life is either ordained by Me or allowed by Me, you can give thanks even for the trials you experience. I know you love Me and you know that you have been called by Me. When those two facts sink down deep in your spirit, you will never be disappointed. Disappointment keeps you from fulfilling My divine appointments that I desire for you to meet day by day.
Ungratefulness for you circumstances or for people in your life will keep you bound by heaviness and oppression. Get out of that prison today and begin to praise Me. The chains will fall off of you just as they did for Paul and Silas.
