As you Read Scripture, ask the Holy Spirit to point out applicable promises for your life.
Study, memorize, and meditate upon them.
Our Father wants you to claim these truths.
Then, when trials arise, you’ll have a rock-solid foundation on which to stand.
You can trust that God will do all He says.

God will never leave His children, and nothing touches a believer without first touching Him. Our Father goes ahead of you and me to prepare the way and walks with us through every situation. Strive to be aware of His presence, and you will know peace
Our primary purpose is to take a life-long journey following in the Lord’s footsteps, honoring Him with our actions and speech, and always increasing in biblical wisdom.
Only when we fully surrender and sacrifice to Jesus can we truly live in freedom.
Followers remain faithful to the Lord’s plan whether doing so is easy or hard. Not only that, but they proclaim Him in both blessing and calamity, and go even when they don’t like where He leads.

God deemed sin so horrible and destructive that He willingly killed His own Son in order to break its power. For His part, Jesus offered Himself as a substitute. He purchased victory over sin for those believe in Him. That was the supreme moment in human history.
The Lord has made Himself available to us through prayer
God has mapped out the path before you. He is aware of every obstacle and miry pit, & He knows exactly which sidetracks will tempt you. What’s more, He has committed to walk beside you as a Guide & Comforter so that you never face the twists and turns of this life alone.
Remember, God doesn't expect perfection. He will guide the willing heart & cover missteps with His grace.
Carry out His work with enthusiasm, excellence & energy for as long as He gives you strength
In the midst of turmoil and trials, we have assurance that our lives are in the grip of the almighty God
Placing hope and confidence in anything apart from the Lord will ultimately leave you feeling broken and defeated.

Wisdom the capacity to see things from God's viewpoint and to respond to them according to Biblical Scripture.

Your job is simply to trust HIM & obediently follow HIS directions.
Never has there been a book so hated in history as the Bible
It cost a lot of people, "a lot" for you and me to have a simple copy of the Word of God.
You dont own anything, stocks, bonds, gold, silver, jewels houses, you dont own anything and all of it together doesn't equal the weight of the value of one copy of the Bible.

Whenever you face an obstacle, you may experience great heartache. But even in the midst of pain, you can have full confidence in God. The most important part of each day is the time you spend alone with the Lord. He will encourage you with His love and give direction.
believers can learn from Paul’s commitment to focus on positive results rather than on personal agony. Pain, whether in the body or the heart, often absorbs all of a person’s attention. But there is no victory to be had in dwelling on our hurts. God has a plan for that anguish, and Paul is a good example. He rejoiced when the gospel spread to the Praetorian Guard—his jailers.
Difficult circumstances are crossroads in the believer’s life. If we take the path of blaming God for our strife, we’ll be dealing with resentment and negativity. But if we focus on our heavenly Father’s love and provision, we will find trust and hope as we seek to go His way.

An unschooled man who knows how to meditate upon the Lord has learned far more than the man with the highest education who does not know how to meditate.
The amount of time we spend with Jesus - meditating on His Word and His majesty, seeking His face - establishes our fruitfulness in the kingdom.
To have God speak to the heart is a majestic experience, an experience that people may miss if they monopolize the conversation and never pause to hear God's responses.
We are either in the process of resisting God's truth or in the process of being shaped and molded by his truth. Charles Stanley
We can be tired, weary and emotionally distraught, but after spending time alone with God, we find that He injects into our bodies energy, power and strength. Charles Stanley
When God speaks, oftentimes His voice will call for an act of courage on our part. Yieldedness is vital in listening to what He has to say.

Service to the Lord is not about what we do, but rather how well we do all that we’re given to accomplish
A godly life will bring JESUS honor and influence others for Him.
our human nature wants to pick and choose which parts of Scripture we’ll obey. GOD blesses those who wholeheartedly follow Christ
