  • Heart, World & satan

    Scripture:
    James 4:4 (NKJV)

    “Adulterers and adulteresses! Do you not know that friendship with the world is enmity with GOD? Whoever therefore wants to be a friend of the world makes himself an enemy of GOD.”

    Understanding

    JESUS CHRIST calls me to love GOD and not the ways of this world. The desires of my heart can lead me away from JESUS CHRIST, but as I stay close to HIM, HE
    changes my heart to desire what pleases HIM. By the power of JESUS CHRIST, I can overcome the enemy and walk in GOD’S ways

    Application

    I will seek *JESUS CHRIST* first and not follow the desires of my heart. I will love people, pray for them, and live in a way that points others to JESUS CHRIST.

  • Conviction of Sins & Confession

    Scripture:
    James 5:16 (NKJV)
    “Confess your trespasses to one another, and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The effective, fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much.”

    Understanding

    JESUS CHRIST convicts me of my sins so I can repent and draw closer to HIM. When I confess my sins to JESUS CHRIST immediately and turn away from them, HE forgives me and make me walk in holiness. I must not harden my heart or ignore the conviction of the HOLY SPIRIT, but obey the truth and remain ready for the coming of JESUS CHRIST

    Application

    I will examine myself every day according to GOD’S Word. When I sin, I will confess my sin to JESUS CHRIST immediately, ask for forgiveness, and make things right with others when needed.

    Scripture:
    James 1:22 (NKJV).
    “But be doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves.”

    Understanding

    JESUS CHRIST calls me to live by HIS truth and obey HIS Word. When I only hear the Word without obeying it, I deceive myself. As I remain in HIS Word and do what HE commands, HE keeps me from deception and helps me stand firm in the truth.

    Application

    I will examine myself every day to see whether my thoughts, words, and actions are according to GOD’S Word. I will ask LORD JESUS CHRIST to make me obey HIS Word and walk in HIS truth instead of following my own understanding or the ways of the world.

  • Part 2- Surrender ALL To JESUS (SATJ)- ONLY TRUE BELIVERS WILL (Children)

    Scripture:
    James 2:19-22

    “You believe that there is one God. You do well. Even the demons believe—and tremble!
    But do you want to know, O foolish man, that faith without works is dead?
    Was not Abraham our father justified by works when he offered Isaac his son on the altar?
    Do you see that faith was working together with his works, and by works faith was made perfect?”

    Understanding

    JESUS CHRIST teaches me that true belief is not only saying that I have faith, but surrendering my whole life to Him. I must give JESUS CHRIST control over everything, including my future, my plans, my relationships, my work, and everything I have. When I truly believe in Him, I will be willing to obey His Word and allow my faith to be shown through my actions.

    Application

    I will surrender all areas of my life to JESUS CHRIST. I will not hold on to my own ways, but I will seek His will and obey His commandments. I will allow my faith to become active through obedience and trust that JESUS CHRIST knows what is best for me.

  • Authority to Tread on Snakes and Scorpions (Children)

    Scripture:
    Luke 10:19 NKJV
    “Behold, I give you the authority to trample on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, and nothing shall by any means hurt you.”

    Understanding

    JESUS CHRIST has given me authority through His victory and sacrifice. This authority comes from Him alone, not from my own strength. Because JESUS CHRIST has overcome the power of darkness, I can stand firm in faith and trust in His protection.

    Application

    I will examine myself daily and allow the Word of GOD to correct me. I will ask the HOLY SPIRIT to help me put away sinful desires and grow in the fruit of the Spirit. I will keep my eyes on JESUS CHRIST and remember that my home is in heaven, not in this world

  • Enemies of the Cross of Christ (Children)

    Scripture:
    Philippians 3:18–20
    For many walk, of whom I have told you often… that they are the enemies of the cross of Christ… who set their mind on earthly things. For our citizenship is in heaven…

    Understanding

    An enemy of the cross is not someone who simply rejects CHRIST. It is also someone who continually lives for worldly desires instead of allowing the old sinful nature to be crucified. JESUS CHRIST calls me to deny myself, follow Him, and let His Word transform my heart. My true citizenship is in heaven, so I must seek the things of GOD rather than the temporary things of this world.

    Application

    I will examine myself daily and allow the Word of GOD to correct me. I will ask the HOLY SPIRIT to help me put away sinful desires and grow in the fruit of the Spirit. I will keep my eyes on JESUS CHRIST and remember that my home is in heaven, not in this world

    Prayer

    Application

    I will keep JESUS CHRIST first by seeking His Word and keeping His commandments. Before I sleep, I will examine myself to see whether my thoughts, words, and actions are according to His Word, and I will ask LORD JESUS CHRIST to make me obey Him.

    Prayer

    In the name of JESUS CHRIST… Lord JESUS.

    Scripture:
    Matthew 12:39
    An evil and adulterous generation seeks after a sign, and no sign will be given to it except the sign of the prophet Jonah.

    Understanding

    JESUS CHRIST teaches me to believe HIS Word instead of seeking signs and wonders. My faith must rest in who JESUS CHRIST is, HIS death, resurrection, and HIS promisesnot in outward signs or experiences. I worship GOD in spirit and in truth because JESUS CHRIST is enough.

    Application

    I will seek JESUS CHRIST through HIS WORD and obey what HE teaches. I will not chase signs or wonders, but I will place my trust in JESUS CHRIST alone and remain faithful to HIM.
