Hay muchos principios de poder en el Nuevo Testamento. Uno de ellos es el poder de la gratitud. El rey David enseñó mucho sobre el poder de la gratitud. Las personas que están agradecidas tienen tal ventaja sobre aquellos que son ingratos. Los ingratos no pueden ver más allá de sus circunstancias actuales; Los agradecidos ven oportunidades ocultas, incluso durante tiempos de dificultad. Los ingratos no aprecian lo que tienen actualmente, por lo que siempre buscan y desean lo que otros tienen; Los agradecidos aprecian lo que Dios ha puesto en sus manos. Los ingratos nunca están satisfechos, por lo que siempre están atrapados en un círculo vicioso de celos y deseando lo que otros tienen; El lugar agradecido tiene un gran valor en lo que tienen actualmente, por lo que son libres de crecer desde allí. Los ingratos no son generosos, porque no valoran lo que tienen; Los agradecidos son generosos, incluso con lo poco que tienen. los ingratos no pueden ver más allá de sus circunstancias para ver el amor y la misericordia de Dios. ¡Los agradecidos se dan cuenta de que Dios es bueno, y su misericordia perdura para siempre! (Salmos 106: 1)

Efesios 5:20 “dando siempre gracias por todas las cosas a Dios el Padre en el nombre de nuestro Señor Jesucristo, sometiéndose los unos a los otros en el temor de Dios”.

Submission is a Godly action, yet today, submission has become a bad word. However, the Apostle Paul taught that part of being wise is the posture of submission to God and to one another. In 1 Samuel 15:22, the Prophet Samuel reveals that God desires obedience and submission. Paul reminded God’s people that we need to submit to one another in the fear of God. The challenge is that one cannot submit when one is walking in pride and arrogance. It seems that in this generation, pride is cool and submission is old fashioned and irrelevant. Today, many get offended very easily when corrected. Some would say: How dare one tell us what we need to do? Yet, God will bless and promote those who submit to Him and to one another. I know that there are times where submission is not a good idea, but we cannot throw out the baby with the bathwater, so to speak. Submission is Godly, but walking in pride and arrogance will ultimately bring you down. Remember what the Apostle Peter said: Likewise you younger people, submit yourselves to your elders. Yes, all of you be submissive to one another, and be clothed with humility, for “God resists the proud, But gives grace to the humble” (1 Peter 5:5).

Ephesians 5:20 “Giving thanks always for all things to God the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, submitting to one another in the fear of God”.
