**A Thankful Heart is a Blessed Heart** – Happy Thanksgiving!!!
Today’s special Thanksgiving broadcast features Joseph and Heather Z as they reflect on their journey, sharing both their highs and lows to offer encouragement.

He also discusses the significance of Thanksgiving in the U.S., explaining that it commemorates the day America broke free from tyranny to embrace religious liberty and identify as a nation of Christians.

Next, Ariel shares how America was dedicated to God by President Abraham Lincoln. He engaged in a covenant with the citizens of the U.S., promising to uphold God's covenant as a nation. Lincoln believed that if the people honored God, they would be blessed, and if they strayed from this path, the blessings would be withdrawn. Joseph also talks about his May 9, 2024 broadcast, during which he shared an incident at George Washington’s Vermont Estate, where wine bottles preserved over time were excavated. He interprets this as a sign of preservation for the U.S., which came after God revealed in a vision to Joseph to watch for the "Washington sign."
Joseph references Psalm 100:3-5 to encourage us to be thankful to God for His goodness to us, in the land of the living. This passage reminds us that the Lord is good, His mercy is everlasting, and His truth endures for all generations. He also cites Romans 1:20-21, which enlightens us on the importance of being thankful in every situation, as a thankful heart is a blessed heart. Furthermore, Heather emphasizes that thankfulness yields significant rewards, urging us to adopt this habit to enjoy its benefits. She concludes with a prayer, declaring peace and the love of God over our hearts and encouraging us to give God time to minister to every area of our lives that needs His attention.
