1 Thessalonians 5:16-18 | Rejoice, Pray, and Give Thanks

Have you ever had a really good day or a really bad one? In this Memory Verse for Kids video, I teach three simple things we can all do, no matter what kind of day we’re having: rejoice, pray, and give thanks.

We look at 1 Thessalonians 5:16–18, where the Apostle Paul reminds the church (and us!) that this is God’s will for our lives in Christ Jesus. Even when life feels hard or unfair, we can still find reasons to be thankful because God is always good.
