How does thanksgiving affect the outcome of prayers?

Answered in 1 source

Thanksgiving can positively influence the outcome of prayers by aligning our hearts with God's desires and inviting His blessings.

Thanksgiving in prayer serves to prepare our hearts for receiving God’s blessing. It signifies an acknowledgment of God’s past mercies and instills confidence in His ongoing provision. In celebrating what God has done, we express trust in His character and foster an attitude of expectancy for future grace. This aligns us with God's will and fosters a disposition of gratitude that can lead to answered prayers, as seen in passages like 2 Chronicles 20:20 where praise preceded victory.
