Maturity in Christ

Monday

A Scripture to think about for Monday:

We can always "prove" that we are right,

but is the Lord convinced?

Proverbs 16:2 TLB

Many times we use our prayer time

to try to

convince God

to change his mind

instead of using that time

to try to motivate ourselves

to change our mind.

Tuesday

If a man enjoys folly, something is wrong.

The sensible stay on the pathways of right.

Proverbs 15:21 NLT

Dear Lord,

I am dedicated to you.

So...

I will choose wise things.

I will enjoy godly things.

I will position myself to gain strength from you.

Amen

"Strong Enough"

by Matthew West

When you're hanging on by a thread,

make sure

it is the hem of his garment.

Unknown

Wednesday

Seek first the Kingdom of God and his righteousness, 

and all these things shall be added to you.

Matthew 6:33 NKJV

Proclamation:

I will be devoted to God

and godly living.

Being Light in a Dark World

Christians are called to be light in a dark world.

When we are in darkness and someone turns on the light,

it hurts our eyes.

As Christians,

if

we are light,

we will not always be welcomed in this world.

We cannot have a right relationship with God

and

a right relationship with the world.

Thursday

Jesus wants to Shepherd us.

All we like sheep have gone astray;

We have turned, every one, to his own way.

Isaiah 53:6 NKJV

Each one of us, at one time or another,

has turned away from the will of God.

Some that are reading this today,

are not in God's will.

~

The prayer below is written for each of us - 

no matter

where we are with the Lord.

It is a prayer of dedication to God's will.

Dear Lord,

We all have turned away from your will.

I, Lord, have turned away from your will.

Help me to stay on your path.

Call to me when I need to stop something I am doing.

Today I strengthen my dedication to you.

I declare that I will be sensitive to your

voice of wisdom

guiding me.

Amen

The Bible tells us that we are like sheep.

Below is an excerpt

 from our Bible Devotion

that explains what sheep are like:

"The Good Shepherd"

Friday

Learn as you go along what pleases the

Lord.

Take no part in the worthless

pleasures

of evil and darkness,

but instead, rebuke and expose them.

Ephesians 5:10 TLB

-

But when you expose them,

the light shines

in upon their sin

and

shows it up,

and

when they see how wrong they really are,

some of them

may even become

children of

light.

                                           Ephesians 5:13 TLB

It is not popular to lead others to Righteousness.

Yet,

God tells us to do it.

-

All of us have a leadership role of some kind.-

What are your words and actions saying?

Is your light shining?
