What does the Bible say about giving thanks to God?

Answered in 6 sources

The Bible encourages us to give thanks to the Lord regularly, as it is a foundational theme, especially in the Psalms.

The act of giving thanks to God is emphasized throughout the Bible, with the phrase appearing 80 times, most notably in the book of Psalms where it appears 45 times. According to Psalm 92:1-2, it is depicted as a good thing to give thanks unto the Lord and to sing praises to His name. We are reminded to do this consistently, throughout the day, to combat our tendency to forget. Repetition in scripture serves to remind us of God's constant presence and faithfulness, urging us to express gratitude even in difficult times.
