Sun // Sacrifice :: Acknowledge
Title: 50/50 “Whoever acknowledges me before others, I will acknowledge before my Father in Heaven.” – Matthew 10:32 This world is harsh and ugly sometimes, but we need to be consistent with our walk; this will and should look different from those around us. Looking and acting differently can bring on judgment or ridicule at times, […]
Sat // Build :: Invest
Title: Invest well Whatever you do, work at it with all your hearts, as working for the Lord, not for human masters. Colossians 3:23 When we hear the word invest, what is one of the first things that probably come to mind? Investing in something is a commitment, which could be money, time, and possibly […]
Fri //Steel :: Strength
Title: Spiritual Workout The Lord is the Strength of his people, a fortress of salvation for his anointed one. – Psalms 28: 8 Be strong, of good courage, and do not fear, for your God is the one who goes with you, in the scripture from God. What areas to draw strength from? First, we […]
Thu // Warrior :: Defend
Title: Defend God and Faith “Defend the weak and the fatherless; uphold the cause of the poor” Psalm 82:3 Defend God. He needs us…. Wrong. The Creator of all things in the Bible asked us to help Him and defend Him as it is seen, but in reality, we are not needed, but the defending of […]
Wed // Grit :: Perseverance
Title: Cast it Down Let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us… – Hebrews 12:1c Some men enjoy running, while others are likely to run only when chased. One thing is for sure in our spiritual race, we are pursued aggressively when running the race He has marked out for us. Two […]
Tue // Fuel :: Spirit
Title: Battles Every Day So I say, walk by the Spirit, and you will not gratify the desires of the flesh. – Gal.5:16 Every day we battle our flesh. A battle that rages daily without ceasing will wear you down. Often, we correlate this battle with sexual sin and rightly so. Sexual immorality steals as no other sin can. However, we can “flesh out” in many ways. Excessive eating and drinking, idleness, anger, […]
Mon // Surrender :: Idols
Title: We all have them Those who cling to worthless idols turn away from God’s love for them. – Jonah 2:8 We all have them, many I don’t realize I have. As men we must know, anything that prevents our focus from being on God as #1. Often for me, things like my job is an Idol […]
Sun // Sacrifice :: Exalt
Title: Posture for Worship Exalt the Lord our God and worship at his footstool; he is holy. – Psalm 99:5 When I think of the word Exalt, I believe whom shall we Exalt. All living things owe their very existence to the eternal God of creation. In God’s image, he created man. He has made way […]
Sat // Build :: Encouragement
Title: It takes courage to Encourage Encourage one another daily, as long as it is called today. – Hebrews 3:13a I remember my little league teammates playing their hearts out every inning of the game, and it comes down to me and one batter. My team would encourage me from the bench. It felt good, and […]
Fri // Steel :: Example
Title: A simple thought Set an example for the believers in speech, in life, in love, in faith and in purity. – 1 Timothy 4:12b “Set an example.” How should that look? Back in Philadelphia, when Benjamin Franklin lived there, the city was rough. You for sure didn’t want to be out at night. The […]
