Transformed in Christ Part 25: Seeds of Gratitude Part 2 (Ephesians 1-2) | Ps. Sam Merigala

A simple “Thank You, Lord” can reset the entire day. In this message, Pastor Sam Merigala explores the quiet strength found in morning thanksgiving—how it builds spiritual roots, renews the heart, and transforms the way we see God, ourselves, and others. This practice may look small, but it becomes a weapon against discouragement, a shield in trials, and a light that touches every relationship we carry. Gratitude softens the heart, strengthens faith, and opens our eyes to God’s steady goodness—even before the day begins. If you’re longing for a deeper walk with God, this message will help you discover how powerful a sincere moment of morning gratitude can be. Let this teaching encourage your faith and elevate your spiritual discipline as you learn to anchor each day in thanksgiving. *Key Points* Morning thanksgiving as a spiritual discipline that renews the heart Gratitude as a foundation of Christian life (Colossians 2:7) Entering God's presence through thanksgiving (Psalm 100:4) How gratitude disarms discouragement and strengthens faith The danger of neglecting gratitude (Romans 1:21) Choosing thankfulness during trials—Habakkuk’s example Gratitude as a daily lens that changes relationships, work, and witness A grateful heart becoming a testimony that points others to Christ How thanksgiving fuels generosity and builds others up Gratitude as a daily “seed” God uses to bless those around us #gratitude #christianlife #christiansermon #faithpractice #morningdevotion #thanksgivingtoGod #spiritualgrowth #bibleteaching #pssammerigala #gracegospelchurch #christianencouragement #transformedinchrist 🙏 Connect with Grace Gospel Church for more inspiring messages and community events: • 🌐 Website: www.gracegospel.church • 📱 Facebook: facebook.com/ggefde • 📱 Instagram: instagram.com/ggefde • 📱 Tiktok: tiktok.com/@gracegospelchurch_bearde
