When we offer thanksgiving and praise, we put ourselves in a favorable position to the law of attraction, a receptive state where we may receive a new downpouring of the Spirit of Love and Light.
— Max Heindel

It is a good thing to give thanks unto the Lord, and to sing praises unto thy name, O most High:
To shew forth thy loving kindness in the morning, and thy faithfulness every night.
O sing unto the Lord a new song: sing unto the Lord, all the earth.
Rejoice in the Lord, O ye righteous: for praise is comely for the upright.
Enter into his gates with thanksgiving, and into his courts with praise: be thankful unto him, and bless his name.
Sing unto the Lord with thanksgiving; sing praise upon the harp unto our God:
Who covereth the heaven with clouds, who prepareth rain for the earth, who maketh grass to grow upon the mountains.
Praise ye the Lord. Praise God in his sanctuary: Praise him in the firmament of his power.
Praise him for his mighty acts; praise him according to his excellent greatness.
Praise him with the sound of the trumpet: praise him with the psaltery and harp.
Praise him with the timbrel and dance: praise him with stringed instruments and organs.
Praise him upon the loud cymbals: praise him upon the high sounding cymbals.
Let everything that hath breath praise the Lord. Praise ye the Lord.
