Grateful Always: 5 Days to a Thankful Heart

DAY 5 OF 5

Thanksgiving & Prayer

Verse:
“Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God.” — Philippians 4:6 NKJV

Declaration:
God, I bring my prayers to You with thanksgiving. I declare that I will not live in anxiety but in faith, knowing You hear and answer me. I choose gratitude as my shield against worry, and faith as my response to every need.

Self-Reconciliation:
(Insert your name), anxiety is not your portion—gratitude is. Lay down your worries and lift up thanksgiving instead. Prayer with a thankful heart is powerful—it shifts your focus from fear to faith. You can rest knowing that God is faithful, and His peace will guard your heart and mind. Choose thanksgiving and watch how His presence fills you with confidence and strength. In Jesus’ name, amen.

Action Step:
Write down one thing you’ve been worrying about. Pray over it, then write one reason you can thank God while you wait for His answer.
