40 Days to a Better You! Day 34


February 3

It is Sunday. This is a new and exciting day for what the Lord can do?

1) Please remember to choose something to stop doing. 

Whether it is.... 
- a bad habit
- a sin you have struggled with, or
- some kind of food or drink that you know is not good for you.

Whatever it is break free over this next 40 days

2) Keep reading Grace Walk and/or Holiness, Truth and the Presence of God

3) Get some kind of exercise - Go for a walk, park farther away from the store or the office. Take the stairs instead of the elevator. Find some way to help you physical body work    harder and better for you.

4) Read the following Scriptures and think and pray about it through out the day. See what revelation the Lord will give you about it for you day, week, year, or life.

Proverbs 18:10


The name of the Lord is a strong tower; The righteous run to it and are safe.


Isaiah 41:10


Fear not, for I am with you; Be not dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you,
Yes, I will help you, I will uphold you with My righteous right hand.


Philippians 4:13

I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.

Do you realize how much strength you have today through Christ? Are there any tasks you might be asked to do that you can not accomplish through Christ?

5) Please pray about the following items


In the Lord's prayer we are told to ask first for our daily bread

- Pray today and every day during our fast, a prayer of thanksgiving to God for what He has done for you!

- Pray for your overcoming blessing. We have not been called to maintain but to overcome in all things. As the darkness gets darker He will cause out light to shine brighter. Jesus said in the world you will have tribulation but we are not to fear because He has overcome the world. Rest in his overcoming blessing. Don't be an Eeyore but expect great things because He has overcome for us already!

 - Pray for all the children in our church today. The kids face more evil today then ever in history. Right and wrong have become muddled and to stand for truth can easily make you the odd one out. Truth is never relative it is always truth and does not compromise. The bible talks about a day when people will call good evil and evil good and in many ways are kids are facing that right now. Pray that they will be strengthen, favored, and blessed in all they do. Pray that they will know who they are and what they are called to do.

         - Pray for the Spirit of Kindness in our culture. It is God's kindness that leads us to repentance. He is truly kind to us always and we should recognize that kindness and do like-wise to all we meet. It is not natural to be kind, we are all selfish by nature and kindness breaks selfishness in us

          - Pray for one family in our church. perhaps someone who either their first or last name begins with "W". Pray that the Lord would bless and encourage them in some way today!
