Thank God for Every Spirit-Wrought Inward Change

Thanksgiving 4.35 | KJV

I must bless God if there be a saving change wrought in me by his blessed Spirit.

And hath God by his grace translated me out of the kingdom of darkness into the kingdom of his dear Son? Colossians 1:13(KJV) Hath he called me into fellowship of Jesus Christ, 1 Corinthians 1:9(KJV) and made me nigh by his blood who by nature was afar off? Ephesians 2:13(KJV) Not unto myself, O Lord, not unto myself, but unto thy name I give glory. Psalm 115:1(KJV)

I give thanks to God always for those to whom the gospel is come, not in word only, but in power and the Holy Ghost and in much assurance. 1 Thessalonians 1:5(KJV)

Thou hast loved me with an everlasting love, and therefore with loving-kindness thou hast drawn me, Jeremiah 31:3(KJV) drawn me with the cords of a man and the bands of love. Hosea 11:4(KJV)

When the strong man armed kept his palace in my heart, and his goods were in peace, it was a stronger than he that came upon him, and took from him all his armour wherein he trusted, and divided the spoil. Luke 11:21-22(KJV)

For the prospect and hope of eternal life, when time shall be no more.

I thank you for the crown of life that God has promised to those who love him; James 1:12(NIV) the inheritance that can never perish, spoil, or fade—kept in heaven for me. 1 Peter 1:4(NIV)

That having here no enduring city, Hebrews 13:14(NIV) I am encouraged to seek the better country—the heavenly one; Hebrews 11:16(NIV) the city with foundations, whose architect and builder is God. Hebrews 11:10(NIV)

That I am resting on the hope of eternal life, which God, who does not lie, has promised; Titus 1:2(NIV) and that all true believers, by grace, Acts 18:27(NIV) have eternal life in them. 1 John 3:15(NIV)

2dly, I must give God thanks for the spiritual mercies bestowed upon me in particular, especially if I am called with an effectual call and have a good work of grace begun in me.

I must bless God for the striving of his Spirit with me, and the admonitions and checks of my own conscience.

I bless you that you have not given me over to a depraved mind; Romans 1:28(NIV) that my conscience is not seared; 1 Timothy 4:2(NIV) that you have not said concerning me, “He is joined to idols, leave him alone”; Hosea 4:17(NIV) instead, your Spirit is still contending with me. Genesis 6:3(NIV)

I thank you for the requirements of the law written on my heart, my own conscience also bearing witness, and my own thoughts now accusing, now even defending me. Romans 2:15(NIV)
