NEW LIFE - A MONTH OF VERSES: JANUARY 7, 2017

VERSE: "He who trusts in his own heart is a fool, But he who walks wisely will be delivered" (Proverbs 28:26)

EQUATION: Navel-gazing + Puffed-up self esteem divides from Authentic Relationship

ACTION: Christians in the west seem to have a problem separating the temporal from the eternal, thereby making horrible, even life-altering choices. We were not bought at the highest possible price- the Life of the Son of God on a Cross- to give the devil a foothold in our lives. So let's cut this out. Let's stop acting like fools and let's cease giving the world ammunition with which to beat God over the head with, by calling us hypocrites.

PRAYER: Our Great God and Father in Heaven, we repent for every wrong choice in life, which each and every one of us has made, sometimes many times over. Help us not to take Your matchless Grace for granted so we can keep on sinning, but remind us all that You gave us the Spirit of Power and Self- discipline what we may be delivered from all evil and temptation, when put upon by the evil one. Help us to choose wisely and to defend our bodies, minds and souls from all sides while cutting off the angle of sin that we may be shining lights for Christ, at all times and for all the days of our lives, in Jesus' Strong and Holy Name, we ask these things, amen.
