Dominion comes from the Hebrew word Radah.
Radah means to rule, reign, govern, tread down, or exercise authority.
Dominion is the reason for the creation of man.
Dominion is over the works of creation, not to lord over men.
Dominion means to be in control and influence your world.
It means ruling over death, poverty, and economic hardship — they are meant to be subject to you.
Dominion is choosing to be a prevailing force wherever you are.
In simple terms, dominion means influencing your world.

📖 Genesis 31:1 — Dominion is supernatural increase and takeover by God’s power.

229| THE POWER OF PRAISE AND THANKSGIVING| MANDATE MIRACLE ENCOUNTER

Thursday Jan 08, 2026

TOPIC: The Power of Praise and Thanksgiving

Praise and Thanksgiving Is a Weapon

Praise is not just music — it is spiritual warfare.
Thanksgiving changes atmospheres and situations.
When believers praise, God moves.

📖 2 Chronicles 20 — When Judah praised, God fought their enemies.
📖 Acts 16:26 — Paul and Silas praised, and prison doors opened.

What Praise and Thanksgiving Can Do

Releases God’s power into situations
Breaks yokes and limitations
Invites divine intervention
Brings supernatural breakthroughs
Changes sorrow into joy

Praise is powerful because God dwells in praise.

Benefits of Praise and Thanksgiving

1. Praise and Thanksgiving Is the Will of God

God desires gratitude, not complaining.

📖 1 Thessalonians 5:18 — “In everything give thanks…”

2. Praise and Thanksgiving Brings Multiplication

Whatever you thank God for increases.

📖 Jeremiah 30:19
Out of them shall proceed thanksgiving,
and I will multiply them.

Thanksgiving → Multiplication
Complaining → Reduction

3. Praise and Thanksgiving Brings Honour

Those who thank God are lifted.

📖 Jeremiah 30:19
“And they shall not be few… and I will glorify them.”

Thanksgiving leads to:

Honour
Increase
Elevation

Power Demonstrations of Praise in Scripture

📖 2 Chronicles 20

They praised
God set ambushes
Victory came without fighting

📖 Acts 16:26

Paul and Silas praised in prison
Doors opened
Chains fell
Supernatural release happened

CONCLUSION

Praise and thanksgiving are not optional —
they are weapons, keys to multiplication, and paths to honour.

When you:

praise instead of complain, and
thank God instead of murmuring,

you invite God’s power to work in your life.

KEY THOUGHTS

Thanksgiving is the believer’s response to God’s goodness.
Appreciation is recognizing the full worth of God and valuing what He has done.
Ingratitude blocks blessings; thanksgiving multiplies them.

6 WAYS TO APPRECIATE GOD

1. Thanksgiving Prayers

Speak appreciative words to God.
Thank Him intentionally and personally.
Don’t assume gratitude — express it in prayer.

2. Share Your Testimonies

📖 Luke 17:17–18 — “Where are the other nine?”

Be someone who returns to tell what God has done.
Thank Him one by one for every blessing.
Testimony is an act of appreciation.

3. Using Songs and Psalms

Worship and praise songs express gratitude.
Sing of His goodness, mercy, and faithfulness.
Psalms are tools for thanksgiving.

4. With a Dance

Dance is a prophetic act of joy and gratitude.
Thanksgiving is not silent — it is expressive.

5. With Instruments

Musical instruments are tools of thanksgiving.
They celebrate God’s greatness and goodness.

6. With a Thanksgiving Offering

Giving is a strong expression of appreciation.
Offerings communicate value and honour to God.
Thanksgiving is incomplete without giving.

CONCLUSION

Thanksgiving is not just a day — it is a lifestyle.
When believers pray thankfully, testify, sing, dance, play instruments, and give, they honor God and attract greater blessings.

Those who appreciate well experience perfection and increase.
