Here is another aspect to consider about the power of giving thanks. Luke records the words of Paul reminding us of the words of Jesus, āIt is more blessed to give than to receiveā (Acts 20:35).

To glorify God is to honor Him with praise or worship. God is glorious; that is, He is great and magnificentāHe is exceptionally grand in His nature and deeds. āFull of splendor and majesty is his workā ( Psalm 111:3, ESV ).

This was a mandatory act, for as the law explained, it ābelongs to the Lordā and āis holy to the Lordā ( Leviticus 27:30 ). Later, as God was preparing the Israelites to enter
