1 Thessalonians 5:18 says, “In everything give thanks; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you.” Philippians 4:6 says, “Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God.”

We are saved by grace. We will live victoriously when we lean hard on grace. 2 Corinthians 9:8 says, “And God is able to make all grace abound toward you, that you, always having all sufficiency in all things, may have an abundance for every good work.”

The above Scripture was written regarding finances, but we can apply it to every aspect of our lives. His abundant grace is bestowed on us when we walk in humility.  James 4:6 says, “…Therefore He says: God resists the proud, but gives grace to the humble.”

It takes humility to thank the Lord in everything we are going through. Prayer is the posture of humility. We agree with Him that He alone is our Provider. Pride is defeated when we acknowledge that we are absolutely dependent on Him.
