Thank God for the Scriptures

Thanksgiving 4.28 | ESV

For the writing of the Scriptures and the preserving of them pure and entire to this day.

I thank you that I have the Scriptures to search, and that in them I have eternal life, for it is they that bear witness about Christ; John 5:39(ESV) and that all Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness. 2 Timothy 3:16(ESV)

That whatever was written in former days was written for my instruction, that through endurance and through the encouragement of the Scriptures I might have hope; Romans 15:4(ESV) and that I have this sure prophetic word, as a lamp shining in a dark place. 2 Peter 1:19(ESV)

That the vision has not become to me like the words of a book that is sealed, Isaiah 29:11(ESV) but that I hear in my own tongue the mighty works of God. Acts 2:11(ESV)

I thank you, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that the things which you have hidden from the wise and understanding and which many prophets and kings desired to see but did not, 1 Peter 1:10(ESV) are revealed to little children like myself; yes, Father, for such was your gracious will. Luke 10:21(ESV)

Thank God for the Scriptures

Thanksgiving 4.28 | NIV

For the writing of the Scriptures and the preserving of them pure and entire to our day.

I thank you that I have the Scriptures to study, and that in them I have eternal life, for it is they that testify about Christ; John 5:39(NIV) and that all Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting, and training in righteousness. 2 Timothy 3:16(NIV)

That everything that was written in the past was written to teach me, so that through endurance and the encouragement of the Scriptures I might have hope; Romans 15:4(NIV) and that I have this most certain word of the prophets, as a light shining in a dark place. 2 Peter 1:19(NIV)

That the vision has not become to me words sealed in a scroll, Isaiah 29:11(NIV) but that I hear the wonders of God in my own tongue. Acts 2:11(NIV)

I thank you, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that the things which were hidden from the wise and learned, and which many prophets and kings desired to see, but did not, 1 Peter 1:10(NIV) are revealed to little children like myself. Yes, Father, for this was your good pleasure. Luke 10:21(NIV)
