Thank You Lord - Happy Thanksgiving 2016

Above all we thank God the Father for His Son Jesus Christ whom He sacrificed on the Cross to pay for our sins and to grant us everlasting relationship with him. Like I said, we all have so much to thank God. Even Mrs. Turkey the bird does.

It said his mother was a prostitute and his brothers “hated” him but they choose him to lead Israel. Jephthah became a reformed “rebel” whom God used to accomplish his purposes in Israel. I said all that to say let’s pray and keep praying. 5 “God thunders marvelously with His voice; He does great things which we cannot comprehend. 6 “For He says to the snow, ‘Fall on the earth’; And [He speaks] to the showers and to the downpour [of His mighty rains], ‘Be strong.’ 7 “God seals (brings to a standstill, stops) [by severe weather] the hand of every man, That all men [whom He has made] may know His work [that is, His
