NOTHING HAPPENS WITHOUT WORK

Romans 8:15 For you did not receive the spirit of slavery to fall back into fear, but you have received the Spirit of adoption as sons, by whom we cry, “Abba! Father!  Acts 18 But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem and in all Judea and Samaria and to the end of the earth.”


The first step: receive Him as our Savior.  Then we need to know Him and His will for us.  What are the required steps we take to get to know Him and His will for us? We need to know His commandments to obey them and we achieve this through study, prayer, worship, and praise.  We can't obey what we do not understand, so we must become familiar with the Word to have a relationship with Him. 
The Second step: we have to practice what we have learned, to develop Fruit and Christ-like character.  This will give us power, through the Holy Spirit and our faith, so the promise will manifest, in our lives.

Father, we thank You, for keeping us through another night and thank You, in advance for Your hedge of protection around us today. Lord, it takes commitment and courage to obey You, so fill us with Your courage and commitment. To give up what we like, to do for Your will.  Lord, give us wisdom on how to rearrange our lives, to match Your plans for us and knowledge of how to love the unlovable, to forgive those that wronged us, and to give what we want to keep to others. So, we can share the love of Christ with everyone, in hope that they too come into a relationship with Him and be prepared to walk 🚶‍♂️through this Valley of death and fear no evil.  Father, let our studies of Your Word be daily, as well as our prayers, so, we will draw nearer to Thee. So, we can have peace, through our day to day struggles, In Jesus name Amen
