Thank God for Christ’s Holy Life, Excellent Doctrine, and Glorious Miracles

Thanksgiving 4.17 | NASB

For His holy life, His excellent doctrine, and the glorious miracles He wrought to confirm His doctrine.

I bless You for the assurance I have that Jesus has come from God as a teacher, since no one could do those signs which he did unless God was with him. John 3:2(NASB)

That You have in these last days spoken in Your Son, Hebrews 1:2(NASB) whose teaching was not His, but His who sent Him; John 7:16(NASB) and He spoke as one having authority; Matthew 7:29(NASB) and that I am encouraged to come and learn from Him, because He is gentle and humble in heart, and in learning of Him I will find rest for my soul. Matthew 11:29(NASB)

I bless You that He has left me an example for me to follow in His steps, in that He committed no sin, nor was any deceit found in His mouth; and while being reviled, He did not revile in return; 1 Peter 2:21-23(NASB) and His food and drink was to do the will of His Father, John 4:34(NASB) in that He was holy, innocent, undefiled, separated from sinners. Hebrews 7:26(NASB) O that I may be armed with the same purpose, 1 Peter 4:1(NASB) and that as He was, so also may I be in this world; 1 John 4:17(NASB) and that I may walk in the same manner as He walked. 1 John 2:6(NASB)

I bless You that the works which He did testify about Him, that the Father has sent Him; John 5:36(NASB) that by His power the blind received their sight, the lame walked, the lepers were cleansed, the deaf heard, the dead were raised up, and the poor had the gospel preached to them, Matthew 11:5(NASB) and even the winds and the sea obeyed Him, Matthew 8:27(NASB) for which I glorify the God of Israel. Matthew 15:31(NASB) Truly this was the Son of God! Matthew 27:54(NASB)

Thank God for His Gracious Owning of Christ in His Undertaking

Thanksgiving 4.16 | NASB

For God’s gracious owning of Him in His undertaking, and in the carrying of it out.

I bless You that You were in Christ reconciling the world to Yourself, not counting their trespasses against them, and that You have committed to Your people the word of reconciliation. 2 Corinthians 5:19(NASB)

That You have Yourself made Him a witness to the peoples, a leader and commander for the peoples; Isaiah 55:4(NASB) that He was sanctified and sealed, John 6:27(NASB) and sent into the world; John 10:36(NASB) and that the Father who sent Him did not leave him alone, for He always did the things that are pleasing to Him. John 8:29(NASB)

Glory be to God in the highest, for in and through Jesus Christ there is on earth peace among men with whom He is pleased. Luke 2:14(NASB)

By this the love of God was manifested, that God has sent His only begotten Son into the world so that all who are His might live through Him. 1 John 4:9(NASB)

I thank You that you have given Him authority over all flesh, that to all whom You have given Him, He may give eternal life. John 17:2(NASB)

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)
