True thanksgiving is rooted in contentment, which flows from trusting in God's unchanging promise to never leave or forsake His people. The sermon emphasizes that contentment is not found in material abundance or worldly success, but in a deep, faith-filled reliance on God's presence and provision, as affirmed in the promise 'I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee.' This trust enables believers to boldly declare, 'The Lord is my helper, and I will not fear what man shall do unto me,' even amid hardship, persecution, or uncertainty. The message calls the church to reject covetousness and the world's fleeting pleasures, instead cultivating a life marked by gratitude, humility, and worship, recognizing that all good things come from God and that true joy is found in His eternal faithfulness. Ultimately, contentment leads to genuine thanksgiving—a heartfelt acknowledgment of divine grace, unworthiness, and the eternal joy of knowing God as helper and Father. 1. The Meaning 2.
