Being Thankful To God
![Page 2: Being Thankful to God ~ Psalm 50](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022103114/554fe4f3b4c905c7488b5154/html5/thumbnails/2.jpg)
1 The LORD, the Mighty One, is God, and he has spoken; he has summoned all humanity from where the sun rises to where it sets. 2 From Mount
Zion, the perfection of beauty, God shines in glorious radiance.
![Page 3: Being Thankful to God ~ Psalm 50](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022103114/554fe4f3b4c905c7488b5154/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
3 Our God approaches, and he is not silent. Fire devours
everything in his way, and a great storm rages around him.
4 He calls on the heavens above and earth below to witness the
judgment of his people.

5 “Bring my faithful people to me—those who made a covenant with me by giving sacrifices.”
6 Then let the heavens proclaim his justice, for God himself will
be the judge

We don’t stop to think.
![Page 6: Being Thankful to God ~ Psalm 50](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022103114/554fe4f3b4c905c7488b5154/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Thanksgiving is thus really the product of careful cultivation.
![Page 7: Being Thankful to God ~ Psalm 50](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022103114/554fe4f3b4c905c7488b5154/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
It is the fruit of a deliberate resolve
to think about God, ourselves, and our privileges
and responsibilities.
![Page 8: Being Thankful to God ~ Psalm 50](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022103114/554fe4f3b4c905c7488b5154/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
By giving thanks we make manifest the fact that our
lives are not controlled by the arrogant cares and concerns
of this life.
![Page 9: Being Thankful to God ~ Psalm 50](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022103114/554fe4f3b4c905c7488b5154/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
We give testimony to the fact that material things do not dictate the horizons of our
soul. 7700 Illustrations

God made people to be loved
and things to be used, when you start loving things
you start using people.
![Page 11: Being Thankful to God ~ Psalm 50](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022103114/554fe4f3b4c905c7488b5154/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
When you forget God
you pursue things
and abuse people
resulting in a
miserable, self-centered life.

7 “O my people, listen as I speak. Here are my charges
against you, O Israel: I am God, your God! 8 I have no complaint
about your sacrifices or the burnt offerings you constantly
offer.
![Page 13: Being Thankful to God ~ Psalm 50](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022103114/554fe4f3b4c905c7488b5154/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
9 But I do not need the bulls from your barns or the goats from
your pens. 10 For all the animals of the forest are mine, and I own the cattle on a thousand hills.
![Page 14: Being Thankful to God ~ Psalm 50](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022103114/554fe4f3b4c905c7488b5154/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
11 I know every bird on the mountains, and all the animals of the field are mine. 12 If I were hungry, I would not tell you, for
all the world is mine and everything in it.13 Do I eat the meat of bulls? Do I drink the
blood of goats?

Isaiah 66:2 - …But this is the one to whom I will look: he who is humble and contrite in spirit and trembles at my word. ESV

14 Make thankfulness your sacrifice to God, and keep the
vows you made to the Most High. 15 Then call on me when
you are in trouble, and I will rescue you, and you will give
me glory.”
![Page 17: Being Thankful to God ~ Psalm 50](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022103114/554fe4f3b4c905c7488b5154/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
16 But God says to the wicked: “Why bother reciting my
decrees and pretending to obey my covenant? 17 For you refuse
my discipline and treat my words like trash.
![Page 18: Being Thankful to God ~ Psalm 50](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022103114/554fe4f3b4c905c7488b5154/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
18 When you see thieves, you approve of them, and you spend
your time with adulterers. 19 Your mouth is filled with
wickedness, and your tongue is full of lies.
![Page 19: Being Thankful to God ~ Psalm 50](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022103114/554fe4f3b4c905c7488b5154/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
20 You sit around and slander your brother—your own
mother’s son. 21 While you did all this, I remained silent, and you thought I didn’t care. But
now I will rebuke you, listing all my charges against you.
![Page 20: Being Thankful to God ~ Psalm 50](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022103114/554fe4f3b4c905c7488b5154/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
22 Repent, all of you who forget me, or I will tear you apart, and
no one will help you.
![Page 21: Being Thankful to God ~ Psalm 50](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022103114/554fe4f3b4c905c7488b5154/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
What a man thinks in his heart of God is the turning-point of life and character.
![Page 22: Being Thankful to God ~ Psalm 50](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022103114/554fe4f3b4c905c7488b5154/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
If we think God takes no note of sin, we shall be
careless of sin.
![Page 23: Being Thankful to God ~ Psalm 50](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022103114/554fe4f3b4c905c7488b5154/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
If we think of God as severe, unforgiving, and unjust, we
may fear him, but cannot love him.
![Page 24: Being Thankful to God ~ Psalm 50](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022103114/554fe4f3b4c905c7488b5154/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
If we think of him as loving and merciful,
“faithful and just to forgive,” we shall learn to “love him, because he first loved us”;
and loving, shall obey.
![Page 25: Being Thankful to God ~ Psalm 50](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022103114/554fe4f3b4c905c7488b5154/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
And if we think of him as holy, we shall hate sin,
and strive after holiness.Spence-Jones

God’s Word
What’s it worth to you?
![Page 27: Being Thankful to God ~ Psalm 50](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022103114/554fe4f3b4c905c7488b5154/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
How do you evaluate your worship of God?
How do you think God views your worship?
![Page 28: Being Thankful to God ~ Psalm 50](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022103114/554fe4f3b4c905c7488b5154/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
23 But giving thanks is a sacrifice that truly honors me.
If you keep to my path, I will reveal to you
the salvation of God.” NLT
