Heavenly Father,

I come before You with a heart that longs for more of You. In the stillness of waiting, I lay down my desires, my plans, and my impatience at Your feet. Teach me, Lord, to wait with expectancy, not passivity, knowing that You are always working in the unseen.

I wait for You, Lord, with hope and joy. Draw near as I draw near to You.

Thanksgiving Sets the Foundation for Worship

Psalm 100:4 says, “Enter His gates with thanksgiving and His courts with praise; give thanks to Him and bless His name.”

Thanksgiving Unlocks the Power of God.

Thanksgiving is a Weapon.

Practical Tips for Cultivating Thanksgiving

So how can we cultivate a lifestyle of thanksgiving as worshiping musicians? Here are a few ideas:

1. Daily Gratitude Journal: Write down three things you’re thankful for every day. It can be simple—like the opportunity to practice your instrument or a moment of connection with God.

2. Thanksgiving in Rehearsals: Start your practice sessions with prayer, specifically thanking God for the gift of music and the opportunity to use it for His glory.

3. Incorporate Thanksgiving in Worship Sets: Choose songs that focus on giving thanks. Let this theme set the tone for the atmosphere you’re creating.

4. Thank God in the Moment: Whether you’re leading worship or practicing alone, pause to thank Him. It could be a quiet whisper or an exuberant shout—whatever fits the moment.
