Thank Him for it Ask him to show you what that

looks like Declare it, because Gods word

never returns to him without doing what it was sent for

like you to obey Commit to doing it Ask for help Say sorry if you’re not doing it,

ask Him to show you what his alternative looks like in your life

You are an awesome God
