Comments by Joan Boney:
A few days ago, I felt a heavy heart coming upon me. I was being pulled down in heart, mind, spirit. Fortunately I remembered to give thanks to God for all HE has given me and provided for me to have at this point in my life.
I began saying to God:
* Thank YOU for providing another believer for me to live with, who is person of faith in God as I have faith in God.
* Thank YOU for our animals.
* Thank YOU for our car.
* Thank YOU that we have no debt.
* Thank YOU for the place we live.
* Thank YOU for the house we live in.
Acts 17:26 (NIV Original translation) HE (God) determined the times set for them and the exact places where they should live.

* Thank YOU for providing healing for Pam from cancer.
* Thank YOU for the blog, books, and Podcasts where we exhort the church today in ways of God and help each other to be edified in this end time period where there is so much iniquity in this world, as the apostle Paul said there would be.
(2 Timothy 3:1-5 & 13)
1 This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come.
2 For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,
3 Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good,
4 Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God;
5 Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away.

(Some go to church but they deny the specific scriptures and fail to do the scriptures and they fail to follow what the Holy spirit says.)
15 And that from a child thou hast known the holy scriptures, which are able to make thee wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus.
16 All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:
17 That the man of God may be perfect, throughly furnished unto all good works.

* Thank You for providing all our need as Paul said YOU would.
Philippians 4:19
But my God shall supply all your need according to HIS riches in glory by Christ Jesus.
π₯π₯π₯
* Thank You for the many promises given to us in the Bible whereby we overcome all problems of this current life.
Isaiah 54:17 No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper; and every tongue that shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD, and their righteousness is of ME, saith the LORD.
π₯π₯π₯
* Thank You for Jesus and the Holy Spirit WHO leads us and guides us and teaches us and shows us things to come.
John 14:26 But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in MY name, HE shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.
John 16:13 Howbeit when HE, the Spirit of truth, is come, HE will guide you into all truth: for HE shall not speak of Himself; but whatsoever HE shall hear (from God), that shall HE speak: and HE will shew you things to come.

It is the devil who brings to our mind negative and troubling thoughts.
When we begin thanking God for all HE has allowed us to have in this life, the devil flees from us! Joy returns!
Live continually, daily in peace, joy, assurance of that promised by God in the Holy Bible.
