Thank God for the Wonderful Incarnation of the Son of God

Thanksgiving 4.15 | NIV

I bless you that when the time had fully come, you sent your Son, born of a woman, born under law, to redeem those under law, that your people might receive the full rights of sons. Galatians 4:4-5(NIV)

That the eternal Word became flesh and made his dwelling among men, and there were those who saw his glory, the glory of the One and Only, who came from the Father, full of grace and truth. John 1:14(NIV) Beyond all question, the mystery of godliness is great, that God appeared in a body. 1 Timothy 3:16(NIV)

I bless you that for this reason he was born and for this he came into the world, to testify to the truth; John 18:37(NIV) and I believe and am sure that he is the Holy One of God; John 6:69(NIV) that it is he who should come, and I am to look for no other.

I bless you that the Son of Man came to seek and to save what was lost; Luke 19:10(NIV) that he has come that I may have life, and have it to the full; John 10:10(NIV) and that the reason the Son of God appeared was to destroy the devil’s work. 1 John 3:8(NIV)

Lord, I receive it as a trustworthy saying that deserves full acceptance, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners – even the worst. 1 Timothy 1:15(NIV)

I bless you that since the children have flesh and blood, he too shared in their humanity: Hebrews 2:14(NIV) That it is not angels he helps, but his people, and was made like his brothers in every way, in order that he might become a merciful and faithful High Priest in service to God, and that he might make atonement for the sins of the people; Hebrews 2:16-17(NIV) and that he is not ashamed to call them brothers. Hebrews 2:11(NIV)

And that the firstborn was brought into the world with a charge given to all God’s angels to worship him. Hebrews 1:6(NIV)

Thank God for the Many Glorious Instances of His Favor to the Old Testament Church

Thanksgiving 4.14 | NIV

For the many glorious instances of God’s favor to the Old Testament church.

I adore that wisdom, peace, and goodness with which you brought the vine out of Egypt; you drove out the nations and planted it; you cleared the ground for it, and it took root and filled the land. Psalm 80:8-9(NIV)

And it was not by their sword that they won the land, nor did their arm bring them victory; it was your right hand, your arm, and the light of your face, for you loved them. Psalm 44:3(NIV)

I bless you that the Jews were entrusted with the very words of God; Romans 3:2(NIV) that they had the adoption as sons, the divine glory, and the covenant, the receiving of the law, the temple worship, and the promises: Romans 9:4(NIV) And that not one word has failed of all the good promises you gave through your servant Moses. 1 Kings 8:56(NIV)

I bless you for all that which you did, at many times and in various ways, speak to the forefathers through the prophets, Hebrews 1:1(NIV) those men who spoke from God as they were carried along by the Holy Spirit, 2 Peter 1:21(NIV) and prophesied of the grace that was to come to your people, predicting the sufferings of Christ and the glories that would follow; and that they were not serving themselves but all believers, when they spoke of those great things – things that even angels long to look into. 1 Peter 1:10-12(NIV)

And especially, I bless you that you have planned something better for believers alive today, so that only together with us would they be made perfect. Hebrews 11:40(NIV)

And especially, I bless You that You have provided something better for this generation of believers, so that apart from us they would not be made perfect. Hebrews 11:40(NASB)
