    Gratitude Is Due To God

    Contributed by Zacch Olorunnipa on Dec 13, 2020
     | 9,360 views

    God deserves to be given gratitude because He desires it and for the great and innumerable things He has done for the human race. Six (6) major reasons why gratitude should be accorded to God and the blessings that can accrue for doing so are discussed in this ministration.

    Gratitude (or thanksgiving, appreciativeness, praise, honor) is due to God from all living things because the Bible says, “Let everything that hath breath praise the Lord” (Psalm 150:6). Human beings have the greatest obligation to render gratitude to God for the simple fact that God made us in ...read more

    Today we want to look at a conversation between the Lord Jesus and a woman at the well. We find this conversation recorded in the gospel of John.
