Gratitude expressed before the manifestation of miracles is a significant theme in scripture. This is exemplified in Helaman 8:23, where people offer thanks to God for the anticipation of Christ’s coming. This proactive gratitude highlights a deep faith that exists before the realization of miracles. Jesus also modeled this behavior by thanking God prior to raising Lazarus from the dead and before distributing food to the 5,000, demonstrating a consistent approach across the Gospels. Such expressions of gratitude and faith emphasize the importance of believing in the impossible and anticipating blessings from God. This aligns with modern teachings encouraging individuals to expect miracles through unwavering faith, reinforcing the notion that gratitude and faith are intertwined, even in the absence of immediate evidence.
