9/09 Proverbs 18:10-12
The name of the LORD is a fortified tower; the righteous run to it and are safe. 11 The wealth of the rich is their fortified city; they imagine it a wall too high to scale. 12 Before a downfall the heart is haughty, but humility comes before honor.
NAME
Jesus, Jesus, Jesus-just something about that name. Savior, Lord, Jesus Christ, gives us what we need and cannot earn: salvation. Trust in the Lord. Hold fast to your testimony and His name.
9/08 Romans 11:18-20
do not consider yourself to be superior to those other branches. If you do, consider this: You do not support the root, but the root supports you. 19 You will say then, “Branches were broken off so that I could be grafted in.” 20 Granted. But they were broken off because of unbelief, and you stand by faith. Do not be arrogant, but tremble.
CAREFUL
For by grace are you saved and not of yourself. Jesus died on the cross to pay the price for your sin. He is Lord. He saved you.
9/07 Mark 7:20-23
He went on: “What comes out of a person is what defiles them. 21 For it is from within, out of a person’s heart, that evil thoughts come—sexual immorality, theft, murder, 22 adultery, greed, malice, deceit, lewdness, envy, slander, arrogance and folly. 23 All these evils come from inside and defile a person.”
HEART
The Lord searches the heart of a person. Turn to Jesus and ask Him to cleanse your heart. Focus on Jesus, spend time in God’s Word and pray. HE will cleanse your heart.
9/06 Deuteronomy 8:2-3
Remember how the LORD your God led you all the way in the wilderness these forty years, to humble and test you in order to know what was in your heart, whether or not you would keep his commands. 3 He humbled you, causing you to hunger and then feeding you with manna, which neither you nor your ancestors had known, to teach you that man does not live on bread alone but on every word that comes from the mouth of the LORD.
THE LORD
The Lord leads you. You have to be willing to be led. Bend your knee to Jesus, every day begin with Him and stay with him until you go to bed that night. Every day with Jesus is better than the day before.
9/05 2 Corinthians 10:12
We do not dare to classify or compare ourselves with some who commend themselves. When they measure themselves by themselves and compare themselves with themselves, they are not wise.
LOOK
Look to yourself and measure yourself by the Word of God. Do not compare yourself to others. You don’t know the journey they are on. Tend to your own business. Love one another.
9/04 1 John 2:16
For everything in the world—the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life—comes not from the Father but from the world.
AVOID
Avoid letting the world control you. Spend time with Jesus and He will equip you to hold fast to your freedom from sin.
9/03 Jeremiah 9:23-24
This is what the LORD says: “Let not the wise boast of their wisdom or the strong boast of their strength or the rich boast of their riches,
24 but let the one who boasts boast about this: that they have the understanding to know me, that I am the LORD, who exercises kindness, justice and righteousness on earth, for in these I delight,” declares the LORD.
KNOW
Know the Lord. Spend time in His Word. Ask Jesus into your heart, and to forgive you of your sin. Believe in Him and HE will do it.
9/02 Psalm 75:4
“I warned the proud, ‘Stop your boasting!’ I told the wicked, ‘Don’t raise your fists!
BOASTING
We boast when we are fearful. We boast when we are unsure. Stop boasting. Check your ego with Jesus. Walk in Him and love your neighbor.
9/01 James 4:6
6 And he gives grace generously. As the Scriptures say, “God opposes the proud but gives grace to the humble.
GRACE
Check yourself. Make sure you are walking in humility. The Lord Jesus gives grace (what we need and cannot earn) to the humble. Walk in humility and Jesus will lift you up as you face the challenges of life.
8/31 1 Peter 5:7
“Give all your worries and cares to God, for he cares about you.”
FIRST
God is first.
There is no second.
He loved you before the foundation of the world
God is love.
You are His beloved.
When you understand how much He loves you, and does for you,
You will love Him.
Believe in the Lord Jesus Christ.
God loves you.
