Reading: Colossians 2:7; 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18
Devotional: Gratitude is not just good manners—it's spiritual warfare. When you overflow with thankfulness for what Christ did on the cross, the enemy's lies lose their power. Complaining opens the door to deception, but gratitude keeps your heart aligned with truth. Even when your car breaks down, your body hurts, or relationships strain, you can still say, "Thank You, God, for the cross. Thank You that I have eternal life. Thank You that You're with me." This doesn't mean ignoring pain—it means choosing to see beyond it. Your gratitude isn't based on circumstances but on the unchanging sacrifice of Jesus. Let thankfulness guard your heart today.
