About this listen

The message explored how offense is gratitude's silent killer and one of the enemy's most effective weapons against believers. We examined how offense disguises itself as justified anger or righteous indignation, but actually builds a prison of bitterness around our hearts. Drawing from 1 Thessalonians 5:18 ("In everything give thanks, for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you"), we discovered that gratitude and resentment cannot grow in the same soil. The message challenged us to recognize that offense doesn't protect us—it poisons us. It steals our peace, short-circuits our praise, and shuts down our ability to walk in the fullness of what God has for us. Most importantly, we learned that the enemy uses offense to keep us from becoming the ambassadors of reconciliation God has called us to be.
