6 Humble yourselves, therefore, under God’s mighty hand, that he may lift you up in due time. ~ 1 Peter 5:6 We are to humble ourselves before God by practicing love for one another. Lord Jesus thank you for your word and loving us. Help us grow closer to you daily.

14 As obedient children, do not conform to the evil desires you had when you lived in ignorance. 15 But just as he who called you is holy, so be holy in all you do; ~ 1 Peter 1:14-15 Lord we thank you for your word. Please continue to guide us and protect us from evil. Amen

7 Submit yourselves, then, to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. ~ James 4:7 We must resist the devil and the evil ways of the world. Resistance requires us to actively pull away. Our relationship with Jesus gives us strength to fight the good fight.

15 Be very careful, then, how you live not as unwise but as wise, 16 making the most of every opportunity, because the days are evil. 17 Therefore do not be foolish, but understand what the Lord’s will is. ~ Ephesians 5:15-17 Studying scripture is critical!

6 And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him. ~ Hebrews 11:6 God wants us to have faith but the key words here are “he rewards those that earnestly seek him”.

15 Do your best to present yourself to God as one approved, a worker who does not need to be ashamed and who correctly handles the word of truth. ~ 2 Timothy 2:15 Paul writes a letter telling Timothy (but goes for all of us) to be diligent in studying and handling God's Word.

9 Whatever you have learned or received or heard from me, or seen in me—put it into practice. And the God of peace will be with you. ~ Philippians 4:9 Studying Gods Word (Bible) gives us knowledge. His peace will guard our hearts and minds as we put Scripture into action. Amen

51 “Very truly I tell you, whoever obeys my word will never see death.” ~ John 8:51 To obey we must first study and learn. Lord we thank you for the truth of your word. We know eternal life is only available if we accept you Jesus to be our Lord and Savior. Amen

27 And he will send his angels and gather his elect from the four winds, from the ends of the earth to the ends of the heavens. ~ Mark 13:27 Hallelujah, what a glorious day that will be for us that are redeemed. Jesus has already paid the price, ask Him into your heart today!

6 He said, “Throw your net on the right side of the boat and you will find some.” When they did, they were unable to haul the net in because of the large number of fish. ~ John 21:6 Jesus instructs the disciples, they take action and are blessed. The Bible is our instructions!

27 Can any one of you by worrying add a single hour to your life? ~ Matthew 6:27 The answer obviously is no but what we do by worrying is waste time. We either trust in God and His plan or we don’t. We can’t focus on what’s in front if we are always looking back. Trust God!

25 Jesus knew their thoughts and said to them, “Every kingdom divided against itself will be ruined, and every city or household divided against itself will not stand. ~ Matthew 12:25 Many are failing to be “One Nation Under God” and “The United States”. Keep Jesus as King!

24 The one who keeps God’s commands lives in him, and he in them. And this is how we know that he lives in us: We know it by the Spirit he gave us. ~ 1 John 3:24 How can I be sure? Learn and be obedient to God’s commands. This aligns the Holy Spirit to our conscience. Trust!

POWERFUL: #NFL star RB Derrick Henry credits all his success to God “Always feel connected to God. I wouldn’t be where I am today without the Man Upstairs. The cross on my face is extra recognition. I put God first in everything I do.” “I wouldn’t be where I am without Him.”

21 Whether you turn to the right or to the left, your ears will hear a voice behind you, saying, “This is the way; walk in it.” ~ Isaiah 30:21 God I pray the lost that are searching for hope and peace find you. I can’t imagine this journey without your love and guidance. Trust

40 He said to his disciples, “Why are you so afraid? Do you still have no faith?” ~ Mark 4:40 Jesus speaks to His disciples right after he calmed the sea and storm with His command. Having a relationship with Jesus and studying His word removes fear and gives us hope.

Psalm 96:2  Sing to the Lord, praise his name; proclaim his salvation day after day. Proclaim what? John 3:16 For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. Why aren’t you doing this daily?

12 What we have received is not the spirit of the world, but the Spirit who is from God, so that we may understand what God has freely given us. ~ 1 Corinthians 2:12 Being in tune with the Holy Spirit allows us to understand and believe things that human reasoning cannot.
