“To the chief Musician, Altaschith, A Psalm or song of Asaph. Unto thee, O God, do we give thanks, unto thee do we give thanks: for that thy name is near thy wondrous works declare
Psalm 75:1
Thanksgiving is not restricted to something we do when God blesses us. There is such a thing as adoration thanksgiving. It is a form of thanksgiving to God for His power and greatness. It is thanking God for who He is, what He does and what He has done. It also entails thanking God for His works in creation.
The works of God in creation are indeed wondrous and excellent beyond description. When we look at God’s creation, admire it and give Him thanks, we are saying to God that He deserves the power that He has, due to the manner in which He utilized it excellently and magnificently across creation. This kind of thanksgiving tends towards worship because you is thanking God for who He is.
We should thus not restrict thanksgiving to something we do when God has blessed us, we ought to also know that it is an art of worship when we adore God in His creation and for Who He is. This is what adoration thanksgiving is about.

ALGERIA
With a 97% Muslim population, 85% of Algerians are unreached with the Gospel but faith is growing among Arabs. New fellowships are popping up. Their youths are frustrated and disillusioned but they make up the largest population in Algeria and amongst them are the majority of the Christians.
Y. We are praying for more laborers in Algeria so that the Gospel can spread to all the unreached people.
