2/09 Psalm 23:4
Even when I walk through the darkest valley, I will not be afraid, for you are close beside me. Your rod and your staff protect and comfort me.
WALK
Life is a long walk. Every day we walk in dangerous places. Our life can end in a split second. We trust the Lord. He is with us. His rod corrects us, and His staff protects us, even when we walk through the darkest valley. Jesus is always with us. It isn’t based on what we can do but is based on His love for us.

Therefore, this is what the LORD says: I am going to bring calamity upon them, and they will not escape. Though they beg for mercy, I will not listen to their cries.

SERVE
We serve a Risen Savior, Jesus Christ the Lord.
He is Lord, Lord of all.
Creator.
Sustainer.
All everything we need to manage a difficult road.
Everyone walks a difficult road.
But one day, we will stand face to face with Jesus,
And we will know Him!
2/03 Philippians 4:13
For I can do everything through Christ, who gives me strength.
IN
You must be IN Christ,
Before you do through Christ.
Jesus must be Lord.
He is first or not at all.
He doesn’t hold forth amongst our many interests.
Jesus is Lord,
And when He is Lord of us, He gives us His strength.
2/02 Philippians 4:8
And now, dear brothers and sisters, one final thing. Fix your thoughts on what is true, and honorable, and right, and pure, and lovely, and admirable. Think about things that are excellent and worthy of praise.
LAST
The Last Word-
Focus on Jesus.
Focus on the positive.
Focus on the truth-Jesus is the truth and you belong to Him.
Focus on those things that are true in Jesus.
He holds you in His hands!
2/01 Deuteronomy 31:8
Do not be afraid or discouraged, for the LORD will personally go ahead of you. He will be with you; he will neither fail you nor abandon you.”
FAITH
Do I believe this?
If I do, I will listen to the Lord,
Follow the direction of the Holy Spirit,
And read God’s Word to drown out those negative voices,
From the evil one.
1/31 Exodus 15:2
The LORD is my strength and my song; he has given me victory. This is my God, and I will praise him— my father’s God, and I will exalt him!
VICTORY
Victory in Jesus. He is Lord and Savior. Victory in Jesus. He is with me through thick and thin. Victory in Jesus, I will exalt Him.
