Giving Thanks is Giving Glory
Series A Thanksgiving Sermon
This afternoon, I would like to bring to your attention the fact that giving thanks to God is giving glory to Him. This is what Jesus says here in verse 18. "Were there not any found who returned to give glory to God except this foreigner?" And the text itself, in describing what happened here, says in verse 15 – And one of the Samaritans, when he saw that he was healed, returned, and with a loud voice glorified God, and fell down on his face at Jesus' feet, giving Him thanks. So, to give glory to God is to give Him thanks, and to praise Him. It is telling Him how great He is; telling Him how good He is. It is telling Him that He alone does wondrous and excellent things. Giving Him glory, expressing yourself to Him in this way, telling Him how much you appreciate Him for who He is and for what He has done for you, this glorifies Him.
