    “For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death” (Romans 8:2). Earthly laws are made to protect us, but another set of laws operate on the spiritual level. These laws affect our salvation, and it’s important for us to understand them. Jesus shed His blood to establish the Gospel of Grace and give us eternal life.

    “I went by the field of the slothful, and by the vineyard of the man void of understanding; and, lo, it was all grown over with thorns, and nettles had covered the face thereof, and the stone wall thereof was broken down. Then I saw, and considered it well: I looked upon it, and received instruction. Yet a little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to sleep: so shall thy poverty come as one that travelleth; and thy want as an armed man” (Proverbs 24:30-34). The values we embrace eventually manifest themselves for all to see. If we’re lazy, we reap what we sow. Hard work and honest labor indicate a godly attitude in this area.

    “No one can serve two masters. Either you will hate the one and love the other, or you will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and money” (Luke 16:13, NIV). If we put money before everything else in our lives, we can become enslaved to it and end up miserable. God knows that financial wealth can tempt us to trust it instead of Him, so He warns us against having a wrong relationship with it.

  • March 7

    “And be renewed in the spirit of your mind” (Ephesians 4:23). There’s a connection between what we think and what we do. When we want to see tangible evidence of true change in our lives, we must renew our thought processes to agree with what the Scriptures tell us.

  • March 6

    “Finally, brethren, whatever things are true, whatever things are noble, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report, if there is any virtue and if there is anything praiseworthy—meditate on these things” (Philippians 4:8, NKJV). We fight a spiritual battle in our minds every day. To win, our strategy must be to deliberately avoid thinking like the rest of the world, which is under the influence of the enemy. Aligning our thoughts with God’s thoughts makes us of one mind with Him.

  • March 5

    “And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God” (Romans 12:2). The first step to standing out from the world as Christians, and God’s beloved, is to change our way of thinking. We break out of that worldly, tired mindset by studying His Word, which refreshes and renews our minds over time.

  • March 4

    “Whom we preach, warning every man, and teaching every man in all wisdom; that we may present every man perfect in Christ Jesus” (Colossians 1:28). Apart from Christ, we’re flawed and incomplete. Only when Jesus is living in us can we truly say we’re perfect, because He makes us that way.

  • March 3

    “Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness” (Isaiah 41:10). There are plenty of situations in life we can’t handle on our own, and contemplating everything that can go wrong can be frightening. God reassures us that when we depend on Him, there’s no need to fear. He’s always with us, and He’ll never leave us.

  • March 2

    “Strip yourselves of your former nature [put off and discard your old unrenewed self] which characterized your previous manner of life and becomes corrupt through lusts and desires that spring from delusion; and be constantly renewed in the spirit of your mind [having a fresh mental and spiritual attitude], and put on the new nature (the regenerate self) created in God’s image, [Godlike] in true righteousness and holiness” (Ephesians 4:22-24, AMPC). When we are born again, our old, sinful nature ceases to exist, and the new identity we receive makes us righteous in God’s eyes. Although this change takes place immediately, we need to constantly renew our minds by studying the Word of God. He reveals fresh insights into the proper mental and spiritual attitudes.

  • March 1

    “But he said to me, ‘My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.’ Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ’s power may rest on me. That is why, for Christ’s sake, I delight in weaknesses, in insults, in hardships, in persecutions, in difficulties. For when I am weak, then I am strong” (2 Corinthians 12:9, 10, NIV). No one is strong enough to go through life without any help or support in tough times. When we’re at our weakest, God’s unmerited favor strengthens us and gives us hope.

Do not exalt yourself in the presence of the king, and do not stand in the place of the great; for it is better that he say to you, ‘Come up here,’ than that you should be put lower in the presence of the prince, whom your eyes have seen (Proverbs 25:6, 7, NKJV)

Considering ourselves as better than others sets ourselves up for a fall. An “I am the greatest” attitude goes against the biblical teachings of putting others first. Putting ourselves last allows God to exalt us.

“Diverse weights [one for buying and another for selling] and diverse measures—both of them are exceedingly offensive and abhorrent to the LORD” (Proverbs 20:10, AMPC).

This can apply to how we do business as well as to how we relate to others. In a business sense, God sees the use of two different sets of measurements as dishonest and just plain wrong. In relationships, holding others to a different set of moral standards than what we follow can be viewed as hypocrisy and operating by a double standard.

He that hath knowledge spareth his words: and a man of understanding is of an excellent spirit. Even a fool, when he holdeth his peace, is counted wise: and he that shutteth his lips is esteemed a man of understanding (Proverbs 17:27, 28).

Sometimes we do more harm than good by speaking without thinking first; the truly wise person knows when to refrain from saying anything. Words are powerful and can’t be taken back once they’re uttered. In a touchy situation, they add fuel to the fire.

Pride goeth before destruction, and an haughty spirit before a fall. Better it is to be of an humble spirit with the lowly, than to divide the spoil with the proud (Proverbs 16:18, 19).

A humble attitude pleases God. We live in an environment that exalts pride and self-centeredness; we therefore must beware of ungodly mindsets.

Without counsel, plans go awry, but in the multitude of counselors they are established” (Proverbs 15:22, NKJV).

Seeking quality input before we begin something is the key to well-informed conclusions. Wise leaders never make decisions in a vacuum, but instead surround themselves with knowledgeable experts. This is true at any level of leadership.

When you ask, you do not receive, because you ask with wrong motives, that you may spend what you get on your pleasures (James 4:3, NIV).

God wants to grant our requests when we pray, but only if we ask with the proper motivation and without selfish intent. He honors our prayers when we put others first the way He tells us to.

The righteous should choose his friends carefully, for the way of the wicked leads them astray
(Proverbs 12:26, NKJV).

The people we socialize with and spend time with are the ones whose morals and values ultimately affect us. This is a lesson we teach our children, but this Scripture is something adults should also remember.

And having been perfected, He became the author of eternal salvation to all who obey Him, called by God as High Priest according to the order of Melchizedek(Hebrews 5:9, 10, NKJV).

Jesus was fully human just like us, yet was perfected through His obedience to God. This gives us hope that we, too, can be perfected through Jesus when we obey His Word.

No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper; and every tongue that shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the Lord, and their righteousness is of me, saith the Lord(Isaiah 54:17).

Violence can happen with no warning and at any time, but those who depend upon the Almighty for protection have nothing to fear. Trusting in God’s Word keeps us in perfect safety; He won’t allow any harm to come to us.
