Do you want to live out your Christian faith but feel unsure about where to begin? Have you found promises in the Bible that you would like to receive from God but don't know how to claim them? Do you want to be consistent with Bible study and apply what you've learned?
I created this journal as a practical tool to elevate and evaluate your walk with our Lord.
Christians are taught, through Biblical truth, to focus on what God deems important and to trust Him to supply all of our needs. The book of Matthew reminds us to "Seek first His kingdom and His righteousness, and all these things will be given to you" (Matt 6:33 NIV). When we bring our behaviors in line with the way the Lord teaches us, we walk in obedience with the Lord and we gain power--Holy Spirit power. The Lord is a supernatural God and His followers are privy to this power.
Spirit power has the ability to heal diseases, overcome obstacles, release strongholds such as addictions, and give us contentment no matter what comes against us. It provides a way to the abundant life God desires for all of us--the life of having everything we need and never fearing failure.
As you answer the daily questions in this journal, you may begin to discern when you have listened to the Holy Spirit's guidance and when you have not. After you start to align your life with God's will, you will notice that the weight of your life is removed from your shoulders and you feel more calm and at peace. Difficult situations and people will still be in your life, but with daily devotion, you will notice that they don't bother you as they once did and you can face them with grace and strength.
Take the pressure off of yourself. Set aside your goals-- our Father in heaven has better goals for you and they never fail! It's not too late to get your life, relationships, finances, health, and integrity back on track, and the only way to do this for the long term is by applying the teachings in the Bible to your life. This journal will help you to accomplish that!
