Power of Prayer Pt.4

In this Church on the Move Roswell message, Pastor Troy Smothermon teaches on the prayer of thanksgiving as a continual sacrifice of praise and a lifestyle that changes everything. Using Hebrews, 1 Thessalonians 5:16–18, Colossians 3:15, Philippians 4:6–7, and other passages, he explains that thanksgiving aligns believers with God’s will, shifts perspective away from lack and complaining, and unlocks peace that guards the heart and mind. He warns that complaining leads to bitterness and entitlement, citing Israel’s wilderness complaints, and urges intentional remembrance like David in Psalm 103. He also teaches that gratitude brings multiplication, referencing Jesus feeding the 5,000 and the thankful healed leper in Luke 17.
