'Thank' in the Bible

First of all, I thank my God through Jesus the Messiah for all of you, because the news about your faith is being reported throughout the world.

But thank God that, though you were once slaves of sin, you became obedient from your hearts to that form of teaching with which you were entrusted!

Thank God through Jesus the Messiah, our Lord, because with my mind I myself can serve the Law of God, even while with my human nature I serve the law of sin.
