8/21 Acts 7:53
53 You deliberately disobeyed God’s law, even though you received it from the hands of angels.”
SIN
Sin grabs our mind.
It pulls us away from God.
We do it willingly.
It darkens our minds.
Confess sin quickly and learn to not do it again.
When you do, stop sinning, repent, return to God.
8/20 Hebrews 1:14
14 Therefore, angels are only servants—spirits sent to care for people who will inherit salvation.
MESSENGERS
Angels, God’s messengers do only what the Lord tells them to do.
Yes, the Saved have an angel watching over them,
But do not pray to angels, they will ignore you!
Pray to God, He is in charge.
The angels do what He says.
8/19 1 Peter 3:22
22 Now Christ has gone to heaven. He is seated in the place of honor next to God, and all the angels and authorities and powers accept his authority.
MAN
Only man and the fallen angels ignore God.
His greatness is evident everywhere.
All creation trembles longingly for His return.
Only man ignores the signs of the times.
Do so at your risk, Jesus is coming back,
To take His children home.
8/18 Psalm 32:8
8 The Lord says, “I will guide you along the best pathway for your life.
I will advise you and watch over you.
HELP
The Lord God Almighty offers help for living.
He will help us with our life.
There is no standard formula to follow, we just focus on Jesus.
We do that by reading the Word of God,
Praying to the Lord God, and
Listening as He guides us every perilous step of the way,
Until we are at home with Him.
8/17 Romans 12:18
18 Do all that you can to live in peace with everyone.
FORGIVE
Respect others.
Forgive those who mistreat you.
Say little.
Listen.
Love the Lord.
It will go well with you and you will have peace.
8/16 Acts 2:38
38 Peter replied, “Each of you must repent of your sins and turn to God and be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins. Then you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.

We follow Jesus and we will be baptized.
Jesus is Lord.
8/15 1 Peter 3:9
9 Don’t repay evil for evil. Don’t retaliate with insults when people insult you. Instead, pay them back with a blessing. That is what God has called you to do, and he will grant you his blessing.
ONE WAY
Jesus calls us to proclaim the Gospel.
By the way we live.
By the way we love.
With our mouth.
By forgiving.
Love one another.
8/14 1 Peter 1:15-16
15 But now you must be holy in everything you do, just as God who chose you is holy. 16 For the Scriptures say, “You must be holy because I am holy.”
HOLY
Draw apart with the Lord.
Ask Him to cleanse you.
Remind Him of how much you need Him.
Worship the Lord.
Spend time with the Lord.
Only the Lord makes you Holy.
You are not God, just a sinner saved by grace.
Trust in the Lord and He will do it.
If you love the Lord, love those you are with.
Do for them as you would have the Lord do for you.
8/13 Ephesians 4:4
4 For there is one body and one Spirit, just as you have been called to one glorious hope for the future.
PRAY
We pray to the Lord God Almighty.
He is one.
Jesus and the Holy Spirit are part of that one.
We don’t understand it but it is still true.
One God.
One Spirit.
One man, the Lord Jesus Christ.
Three in One.
We worship the Lord.
We worship Him in Spirit and in truth.
8/12 1 Corinthians 1:9
9 God will do this, for he is faithful to do what he says, and he has invited you into partnership with his Son, Jesus Christ our Lord.
BINDS
GOD LOVES YOU.
He will bind you into His family from now unto forever.
Yes, accept Jesus and you will always be saved.
The Holy Spirit will reside in you.
Ask Him and Jesus will do it.
Once saved, always saved!
