Some of our prayers won’t get answered in one day. When that happens, we must pray the prayer of thanksgiving. The prayer of thanksgiving is exactly what it sounds like. When we’ve asked God for certain needs or desires, we thank God for the manifestation of those desires. It’s a lack of faith when we continuously ask God for the same thing. That shows we didn’t believe God heard and answered our prayers according to 1 John 5:14-15 the first time.

For example, on Monday we asked God in faith for a new car. On Tuesday, we thank God that we believe that we received the manifestation of our new car. We continue to do this until we physically have our new car.

As we implement the prayer of thanksgiving in our prayer life, we’ll find that the majority of our prayer is thanksgiving. We’ll thank God that all of our needs are met, we’ll thank God that we are healed, and we’ll thank God for the finished works of Jesus Christ that made this abundant life possible for us on the earth.

Thank God it’s already done!
