It is Wednesday! Have you been able to complete both books? You will be hearing bits and pieces from both books over the next few months as I am sharing. How is the exercise coming? By now you should be totally free of any bad habit that you have chosen to break! Rejoice in your freedom!
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 3:5,6
Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding; 6 In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct your paths.
Psalm 23: 2,3
He makes me to lie down in green pastures; He leads me beside the still waters. 3 He restores my soul; He leads me in the paths of righteousness for His name's sake.
Psalm 37:23,24
The steps of a good man are ordered by the Lord, And He delights in his way. 24 Though he fall, he shall not be utterly cast down; For the Lord upholds him with His hand.
Is the Lord leading you daily? How can you allow the Lord to lead you more clearly? From these verses, can you trust that the Lord wants to lead you?
5) Please pray about the following items
In the Lord's prayer we are told to ask first for our daily bread

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 Household Salvation blessing. Many of us have family members who have strayed from the Lord or who have never had a relationship with the Lord. Paul speaking to the Philippian jailer proclaimed that Basically because of his coming to faith, his household would be saved. Because we walk in faith ask the Lord today to surround your family members with people who love the Lord and that their hearts would be softened to Him.
- Pray for other churches in the Mon Valley. We have brothers and sisters in Christ that are attending other churches in out region. Some like different kinds of expressions than we have but they are still our brothers and sisters in Christ. Pray for the Pastors and their churches that the Lord will encourage, bless, and enable them to become all that the Lord wants them to be
- Pray for the Spirit of Self Control in our culture. Our culture is really out of control. If we were to look at today's television, movies, or listen to the music much of it is filled with angst, lust, and offering no answers or hope for the future. Part of self control means that we focus on what God's Word has to say regardless of what we feel. Our trust is in Him rather than the ills and struggles of our society.
- Pray for one family in our church. Pray that the Lord would bless and encourage them in some way today!
