Thanksgiving Prayer
By Rev. Lonnie C. Crowe
As we prepare the food for
our Thanksgiving tables, as we share the gift of hospitality, as our hearts
overflow with gratitude, let’s look into His word and allow the inspiration of
the Holy Spirit to lead our thanksgiving. The following prayer is a
compilation taken from the psalmists, the prophets and the apostles.
Father, we freely offer to
You a sacrifice of thanksgiving. We joy in all Your wondrous works.
We praise Your name in singing and magnify You with thanksgiving. With
hearts overflowing, we come into Your presence. We are thankful to You and
bless Your holy name. Oh, Lord, our God, we praise You. We shout
hallelujah in response to the promise that You are with us wherever we go.
Father, we open our hearts knowing that Your Holy Spirit surrounds us and that
You are love.
We will be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and
supplication, with thanksgiving, we will let our requests be made known to
You. We say: "Amen! Blessing and glory and wisdom, thanksgiving and
honor and power and might, be to our God forever and ever. Amen."
