10/8            1 Kings 2:3-4

2 “I am going where everyone on earth must someday go. Take courage and be a man. 3 Observe the requirements of the LORD your God, and follow all his ways. Keep the decrees, commands, regulations, and laws written in the Law of Moses so that you will be successful in all you do and wherever you go. 

DEATH

Death is certain.  Our lives are like grass, here today and gone tomorrow.  We need to make sure that today we get our relationship with the Lord straight.  Am I saved?  Finalize that issue now.  Ask Christ to forgive you of your sin and to save you.  He is faithful to save anyone, everyone who calls upon His name. 

10/7            2 Timothy 2:15

15 Work hard so you can present yourself to God and receive his approval. Be a good worker, one who does not need to be ashamed and who correctly explains the word of truth. 

FOCUS

We are called to focus on the Christian life.  Jesus wants us to grow in His likeness and impact as His representative everyone we meet.  His call is for us to love one another. 

10/6            1 Timothy 4:12

12 Don’t let anyone think less of you because you are young. Be an example to all believers in what you say, in the way you live, in your love, your faith, and your purity. 

BE

Jesus calls us to be an example.  We do that by living as Jesus did.  He loved the Lord with all of his heart and loved His fellow man as He would like to be loved.  Love one another.  Let love fill your life and overflow out of your heart and you will discover that you will be the example you are called to be. 

10/5            1 Timothy 4:8

8 “Physical training is good, but training for godliness is much better, promising benefits in this life and in the life to come.” 

TURN

Every day I am called to turn to the Lord.  I am instructed to write His Words on my heart.  He encourages me to read His Word out loud.  The Lord is seeking to train me in spiritual ways and I want to get it.  Train me Lord.  I want to follow you. 

10/4            Romans 8:28

28 And we know that God causes everything to work together for the good of those who love God and are called according to his purpose for them. 

BELIEVE

I believe in the Lord.  I believe in what He says in His Word.  He says whatever I face and experience that He will make it work out for my good.  He is Lord.  He loves me and you and He will take care of us. 

10/3            Psalm 37:23-24

23 The LORD directs the steps of the godly. He delights in every detail of their lives. 24 Though they stumble, they will never fall, for the LORD holds them by the hand. 

SAFETY

Jesus saves us and gives us safety as we live our life day by day.  Nothing can ever remove me from His ownership of me.  I belong to Him and will be His throughout eternity.  Jesus is Lord.  He knows the end from the beginning.  When we belong to Him every day is a good day. 

10/2            Psalm 37:7-9

7 Be still in the presence of the LORD, and wait patiently for him to act. Don’t worry about evil people who prosper or fret about their wicked schemes.  8 Stop being angry! Turn from your rage! Do not lose your temper— it only leads to harm. 9 For the wicked will be destroyed, but those who trust in the LORD will possess the land.

DO

Do the next right thing.  Don’t look outward to figure out what you will do.  Look to Jesus and let Him write His instructions on your heart.  Do the next right thing and the Lord will guide you as you walk His path in life. 

10/1            Psalm 37:3-5

3 Trust in the LORD and do good. Then you will live safely in the land and prosper. 4 Take delight in the LORD, and he will give you your heart’s desires. 5 Commit everything you do to the LORD . Trust him, and he will help you. 

TRUST

Trust involves our living in accord with His directives.  If I trust Jesus I will be in the process of becoming like Him.  Do it today.  Do it now.  Trust in the Lord and He will help you. 

09/30               2 Timothy 2:15

15 Work hard so you can present yourself to God and receive his approval. Be a good worker, one who does not need to be ashamed and who correctly explains the word of truth. 

LAZY
There is no lazy in the kingdom of God.  We are called to be busy representing the Lord Jesus and going the second mile with those we live among.  People count with Jesus and He calls us to make people count with us. 

09/29               1 Timothy 4:16

16 Keep a close watch on how you live and on your teaching. Stay true to what is right for the sake of your own salvation and the salvation of those who hear you.

CAREFUL

We are called to live careful lives.  Are you letting Jesus tell you what to do and how to change?  Anytime we begin to teach others the greatest lessons are the lessons we learn.  Live so that your life will glorify Jesus.
