THANKSLIVING
Psalms for a Grateful Life
A five-week study guide | October 25 – November 22, 2026
Welcome
Thanksgiving comes once a year, but the Psalms invite us to make gratitude a way of life. Over five weeks, we’ll learn to give thanks, remember what God has done, tell others about His goodness, respond with generosity, and celebrate His faithfulness.
How to Use This Guide
Each week includes a warm-up question, three simple questions about the psalm, one practical step, a prayer, and optional daily readings that will correspond with Faith Alive’s Pray First Daily Devotional..
In Christ,
Pastor Paul
READ IT
Read the psalm slowly, perhaps twice, and once out loud. I will be preaching out of the NIV but feel free to use any Bible translation.
LIVE IT
Keep a Thanksliving List: write down one thing you’re thankful for each day. By Thanksgiving, you’ll have a record of God’s goodness.
PRAY IT
Let's pray together. Pray out loud or pray silently. God hears our prayers always.
Pray First Daily Devotions are custom devotions created by Faith Alive Staff person, Ruth Manson. These quick reads come directly from scripture and include practical application for each day
