Thank God for the Wonderful Incarnation of the Son of God

Thanksgiving 4.15 | NASB

For the wonderful and mysterious incarnation of the Son of God and His coming into the world.

I bless You that when the fullness of time came, You sent forth Your Son, born of a woman, born under the Law, so that He might redeem those who were under the Law, that Your people might receive the adoption as sons. Galatians 4:4-5(NASB)

That the eternal Word became flesh and dwelt among men, and there were those who saw His glory, glory as of the only begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth. John 1:14(NASB) By common confession, great is the mystery of godliness, that God was revealed in the flesh. 1 Timothy 3:16(NASB)

I bless You that for this He was born and for this He came into the world, to testify to the truth; John 18:37(NASB) and I believe and have come to know that He is the Christ, the Holy One of God; John 6:69(NASB) that it is He who should come, and I am to look for no other.

I bless You that the Son of Man has come to seek and to save that which was lost; Luke 19:10(NASB) that He has come that I might have life, and have it abundantly; John 10:10(NASB) and that the Son of God appeared for this purpose, to destroy the works of the devil. 1 John 3:8(NASB)

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

I bless You that since the children share in flesh and blood, He Himself likewise also partook of the same: Hebrews 2:14(NASB) That He does not give help to angels, but to His people, and was made like His brethren in all things, so that He might become a merciful and faithful High Priest in things pertaining to God, to make propitiation for the sins of the people; Hebrews 2:16-17(NASB) and that He is not ashamed to call them brethren. Hebrews 2:11(NASB)

And that the firstborn was brought into the world with a charge given to all the angels of God to worship Him. Hebrews 1:6(NASB)

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

Thanksgiving 4.14 | NASB

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

I adore that wisdom, peace, and goodness with which You removed the vine from Egypt; You drove out the nations and planted it; You cleared the ground before it, and it took deep root and filled the land. Psalm 80:8-9(NASB)

And they did not possess the land by their own sword, and their own arm did not save them, but Your right hand and Your arm and the light of Your presence, for You favored them. Psalm 44:3(NASB)

I bless You that the Jews were entrusted with the oracles of God; Romans 3:2(NASB) that they had the adoption as sons, and the glory and the covenants and the giving of the Law and the temple service and the promises: Romans 9:4(NASB) And that not one word has failed of all Your good promise, which You promised through Moses Your servant. 1 Kings 8:56(NASB)

I bless You for all that which You did, in many portions and in many ways, speak long ago to the fathers in the prophets, Hebrews 1:1(NASB) those men who, moved by the Holy Spirit, spoke from God, 2 Peter 1:21(NASB) and prophesied of the grace that would come to the people of God, predicting the sufferings of Christ and the glories to follow; and that they were not serving themselves only, but all believers, in those great things – things into which angels long to look. 1 Peter 1:10-12(NASB)

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)

Thank God for the Early Indication of His Gracious Design

Thanksgiving 4.13 | NASB

For the early and ancient indication of the gracious design concerning fallen man.

I bless You that as soon as man had sinned, it was graciously promised that the seed of the woman should break the serpent’s head; Genesis 3:15(NASB) and that in the Old Testament sacrifices, Jesus Christ was the lamb slain from the foundation of the world. Revelation 13:8(NASB)

And that by faith the men of old, though they did not receive what was promised, Hebrews 11:39(NASB) gained approval; Hebrews 11:2(NASB) for they obtained the testimony that they were righteous. Hebrews 11:4(NASB)

I bless You for the promise made to Abraham, that in his seed all the families of the earth would be blessed; Genesis 12:3(NASB) and to Jacob, that the Shiloh would come, and to Him would be the obedience of the peoples; Genesis 49:10(NASB) and that the Patriarchs rejoiced to see Christ’s day, and they saw it and were glad. John 8:56(NASB)
