Thank God for Every Spirit-Wrought Inward Change

Thanksgiving 4.35 | NASB

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

And has God by His grace transferred me from the domain of darkness to the kingdom of His beloved Son? Colossians 1:13(NASB) Has He called me into fellowship with Jesus Christ, 1 Corinthians 1:9(NASB) and brought me near by His blood, who by nature was far off? Ephesians 2:13(NASB) Not to myself, O LORD, not to myself, but to Your name I give glory. Psalm 115:1(NASB)

I give thanks to God always for those to whom the gospel has come not in word only, but in power and in the Holy Spirit and with full conviction. 1 Thessalonians 1:5(NASB)

You have loved me with an everlasting love; therefore you have drawn me with lovingkindness. Jeremiah 31:3(NASB) You have led me with cords of a man, with bonds of love. Hosea 11:4(NASB)

When the strong man, fully armed, guarded his palace in my heart, and his possessions were undisturbed, someone stronger than he attacked him and took away his armor on which he had relied and distributed the plunder. Luke 11:21-22(NASB)

Thank God for the Hope of Eternal Life and for the Work of the Spirit within you

Thanksgiving 4.34 | NASB

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

I thank You for the crown of life which the Lord has promised to those who love Him; James 1:12(NASB) the inheritance imperishable, undefiled, and that will not fade away, reserved in heaven for me. 1 Peter 1:4(NASB)

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

That I am in hope of eternal life, which God, who cannot lie, has promised; Titus 1:2(NASB) and that all true believers, through grace, Acts 18:27(NASB) have eternal life abiding in them. 1 John 3:15(NASB)

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(NASB) that my conscience is not seared; 1 Timothy 4:2(NASB) that You have not said concerning me, “He is joined to idols, let him alone”; Hosea 4:17(NASB) but that Your Spirit is still striving with me. Genesis 6:3(NASB)

I thank You for the work of the Law written in my heart, my own conscience also bearing witness, and my own thoughts alternately accusing or else defending me. Romans 2:15(NASB)
