Sunday, April 6, 2025Key Verse

Message
Attitude of Appreciation is a winning attitude. We need to daily put on an attitude of appreciating God for what He has done for us in the past, present and what He is still going to do in our lives. God expects us to appreciate Him so that He can perfect all that concerns us and make His glory impact our lives. The text under consideration today, tells us about ten lepers that came to Christ for healing. Christ gave them an instruction on how they could be cleansed of their leprosy by telling them to go and to show themselves to the Priest. On their way to show themselves to the Priest, they were all healed without exception. But only one, a Samaritan, out of the ten returned to Christ to appreciate and glorify Him for the healing. Christ commended him.
The other nine failed to go back to appreciate Christ. Are you like the appreciative Samaritan or one of the nine ingrates? The more we appreciate God, the more we get blessed. Friend, learn to appreciate any act of kindness you are shown.
