09/08 Matthew 7:13-14
13 “You can enter God’s Kingdom only through the narrow gate. The highway to hell[a] is broad, and its gate is wide for the many who choose that way. 14 But the gateway to life is very narrow and the road is difficult, and only a few ever find it.
GOD
God has a way.
It is not our way.
Change.
Follow God’s way-it is the only way.
NEVER – ISA. 51:6 “MY SALVATION WILL LAST FOREVER”
God speaking: “My salvation will never fail!
It will last forever!”
Are you discouraged?
The world, the flesh and the devil got you down?
Failure has you blue!
Or maybe the government and the people that run it!
Your life is hard and chaos is winning the day!
Stop! Listen to what Jesus has to say:
Look up at the sky, at the sun, the moon, and the stars!
They operate seemingly without end.
Look at the earth around you, the mountains, rivers and oceans.
They appear to be unchanging.
They are not eternal.
Jesus is coming back.
All that will disappear.
We are here today and gone tomorrow.
All this stuff is temporary.
Jesus says that our salvation will last forever.
That His righteousness will never fail.
We can trust that Jesus will do the right thing,
When no one else does.
Jesus is faithful and HIS salvation will never end.

He provides us with a restored relationship with the Father.
Put your faith in Jesus, He is Lord.
09/06 Proverbs 19:16
16 Keep the commandments and keep your life;
despising them leads to death.
DO
DO what the Lord says.
Do it now.
Do the next right thing.

Ask Him to forgive you of your sin,
And believe in Him. He is Lord.
09/05 Proverbs 8:35
35 For whoever finds me finds life
and receives favor from the Lord.
MANKIND
Mankind is dead in their trespasses and sin.
Come to Jesus, He saves us from our sin and gives us life.
The Life Jesus gives is eternal life, life like God’s.
Seek the Lord with all of your heart and soul and mind,
It is worth it to know Jesus.
09/04 Psalm 145:1
1 I will exalt you, my God and King,
and praise your name forever and ever.
LOVE THE LORD
Love the Lord your God with all your heart.
Daily focus.
Pray without ceasing.
Know His Word.
All required to maintain control of our deceitful heart.
My way generally tends to not be God’s way.
I will let the Holy Spirit control me, so that I will walk God’s path.
Love the Lord your God with all your soul.
Be filled with the Holy Spirit.
He knows what you are facing, and you don’t.
Whatever the pain, or gain, the Holy Spirit controls you.
Good or bad are passing in the wind.
The only forever good thing is Jesus.
Serve the Lord with gladness and He will fill your soul.
Love the Lord with all your mind.
Get the focus off material things, they are passing away.
Only God’s people will last.
Study God’s word.
Serve everyone, enemy and friend alike.
Be usable, train your hands and feet.
Do the next right thing.
The Jesus way will cost you dearly.
He demands first place,
Because He is the only way.
Seek Him, with all of your heart,
And He will add all you need to your life.
Following Jesus is the eternal way.
Plan on spending forever with Him.

09/03 Psalm 139:23-24
23 Search me, O God, and know my heart;
test me and know my anxious thoughts.
24 Point out anything in me that offends you,
and lead me along the path of everlasting life.
LEAD
I want to be with You Lord, all the time.
I want Your instruction and review-help me walk with You.
Correct me, equip me, guide me, I cannot do it myself.
Lead me Lord so that I will not lose my way.
09/02 Psalm 37:28
28 For the Lord loves justice,
and he will never abandon the godly.
He will keep them safe forever,
but the children of the wicked will die.
FINAL
The Lord reigns and He demands justice.
To us it seems like this will never happen.
To God, this is a sure event that will come.
No wicked person avoids judgment.
God is eternal and HE is in control of all things,
Including justice.
09/01 Job 14:14
14 Can the dead live again?
If so, this would give me hope through all my years of struggle,
and I would eagerly await the release of death.
YES

He lives today and is seated at the right hand of God.
He is the first fruit of many who call His name as Lord and Savior.
Jesus gives us life, life like God’s life-eternal.

He provides the hope we need as we trust in Him.
Trouble will pass, hand in there.
Keep on praying and God will see you through.
