Give Thanks In Everything

You'll notice that the following wonderful biblical examples of these prayers of thanksgiving are precise, specific, and short. Gratitude can be shared in few words from an appreciative heart (Matthew 6:7 NIV).

Angels' and Saints' Prayers Of Thanksgiving

Amen! Blessing and glory and wisdom and thanksgiving and honor and power and might be to our God forever and ever! Amen. Revelation 7:11-12 ESV.

We give thanks to you, Lord God Almighty,
who is and who was,
for you have taken your great power
and begun to reign.
The nations raged,
but your wrath came,
and the time for the dead to be judged,
and for rewarding your servants, the prophets and saints,
and those who fear your name,
both small and great,
and for destroying the destroyers of the earth. Revelation 11:16-18 ESV
