Life in His StoryPart 15
1 Peter 2:11-17 (NIV)
11 Dear friends, I urge you, as aliens and strangers in the world, to abstain from sinful desires, which war against your soul. 12 Live
such good lives among the pagans that, though they accuse you of doing wrong, they
may see your good deeds and glorify God on the day he visits us.
1 Peter 2:11-17 (NIV)
13 Submit yourselves for the Lord's sake to every authority instituted among men: whether to the king, as the supreme
authority, 14 or to governors, who are sent by him to punish those who do wrong and to
commend those who do right.
1 Peter 2:11-17 (NIV)
15 For it is God's will that by doing good you should silence the ignorant talk of foolish men. 16 Live as free men, but do not use
your freedom as a cover-up for evil; live as servants of God.
1 Peter 2:11-17 (NIV)
17 Show proper respect to everyone: Love the brotherhood of believers, fear God, honor
the king.
Matthew 22:37-40 (NIV)
37 Jesus replied: "'Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.' 38 This is the first and greatest
commandment.
Matthew 22:37-40 (NIV)
39 And the second is like it: 'Love your neighbor as yourself.' 40 All the Law and the
Prophets hang on these two commandments."
1. Get focused – What’s going on today?.
Hebrews 10:19-25 (NIV)
19 Therefore, brothers, since we have confidence to enter the Most Holy Place by the blood of Jesus, 20 by a new and living
way opened for us through the curtain, that is, his body,
Hebrews 10:19-25 (NIV)
21 and since we have a great priest over the house of God, 22 let us draw near to God
with a sincere heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled to cleanse us from a guilty conscience and having our
bodies washed with pure water.
Hebrews 10:19-25 (NIV)
23 Let us hold unswervingly to the hope we profess, for he who promised is faithful. 24
And let us consider how we may spur one another on toward love and good deeds.
Hebrews 10:19-25 (NIV)
25 Let us not give up meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing, but let us
encourage one another--and all the more as you see the Day approaching.
2. Get Thankful – List at least five things you are
thankful for.
Philippians 4:4-8 (NIV)
4 Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice! 5 Let your gentleness be evident to
all. The Lord is near.
Philippians 4:4-8 (NIV)
6 Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with
thanksgiving, present your requests to God. 7 And the peace of God, which transcends
all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.
Philippians 4:4-8 (NIV)
8 Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable--if anything is excellent or praiseworthy--think
about such things.
3. Get Connected - Your prayer focus, requests,
impressions, etc.
Matthew 6:9-13 (NIV)
9 "This, then, is how you should pray: "'Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name, 10 your kingdom come, your will be done on
earth as it is in heaven.
Matthew 6:9-13 (NIV)
11 Give us today our daily bread. 12 Forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our
debtors.
Matthew 6:9-13 (NIV)
13 And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from the evil one.'
4. Get Dressed - Your current
spiritual/relational/emotional battles.
Ephesians 6:12-18 (NIV)
12 For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the
authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil
in the heavenly realms.
Ephesians 6:12-18 (NIV)
13 Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be
able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand. 14 Stand firm
then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of
righteousness in place,
Ephesians 6:12-18 (NIV)
15 and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace. 16 In
addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming
arrows of the evil one.
Ephesians 6:12-18 (NIV)
17 Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.
18 And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in
mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the saints.
5. Get Encouraging - The people you are going to
encourage, bless, and pray for today.
1 Corinthians 13:4-8a (NIV)
4 Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. 5 It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs.
1 Corinthians 13:4-8a (NIV)
6 Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. 7 It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. 8 Love
never fails.
6. Get R Done - Live as a Disciple today by trying to
do the next right thing!
Matthew 6:33 (NIV)
33 But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be
given to you as well.
Matthew 7:12 (NIV)
12 So in everything, do to others what you would have them do to you, for this sums up
the Law and the Prophets.
7. Get R Done? - Throughout the day and at
the end of the day, reflect on how you did as a Disciple for
the day.
Hebrews 12:1-3 (NIV)
1 Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so
easily entangles, and let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us.
Hebrews 12:1-3 (NIV)
2 Let us fix our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy set
before him endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the
throne of God.
Hebrews 12:1-3 (NIV)
3 Consider him who endured such opposition from sinful men, so that you will not grow
weary and lose heart.
