“When pride comes, then comes shame; but with the humble is wisdom” (Proverbs 11:2, NKJV). Pride interferes with our relationship with God and leaves us open to shame. Agreeing with what He says in His Word and the promises He makes to us is true humility in action, and it displays godly wisdom.

“O my God, I trust in thee: let me not be ashamed, let not mine enemies triumph over me. Yea, let none that wait on thee be ashamed: let them be ashamed which transgress without cause... O keep my soul, and deliver me: let me not be ashamed; for I put my trust in thee” (Psalm 25:2, 3, 20). The devil tries to use shame against us to hold us back from fulfilling God’s mission. Although those who disobey the Word can fall prey to shame’s destructive forces, our trust in God defeats this spiritual weapon.

“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.

“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.

“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.

“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.

“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.

“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.

“Being confident of this very thing, that he which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ” (Philippians 1:6).
When we welcome Jesus into our lives and ask for His guidance and leadership, He comes to live inside us. His Spirit directing and advising us brings change from the inside out, and the outward manifestations gradually appear. We’re works in progress.

“Ah Lord God! Behold, thou hast made the heaven and the earth by thy great power and stretched out arm, and there is nothing too hard for thee” (Jeremiah 32:17).
Adversity has a way of showing up in our lives when we least expect it. When we find ourselves in a dire situation and think there’s no way out, we can turn to someone greater and more powerful than us for deliverance. What seems hopeless to us is a simple thing to God.

“You are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hidden. Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven” (Matthew 5:14, 16, NKJV).
The world desperately needs Jesus; as believers, we’re appointed to share His love with everyone. Christians are in a high-profile position because the world is watching everything we say and do. With that in mind, we must set the example with our words and actions.

“And when the tempter came to him, he said, if thou be the Son of God, command that these stones be made bread. But he answered and said, it is written, man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God” (Matthew 4:3, 4).
When the devil tried to tempt Jesus after He had fasted in the desert, He overcame the temptation by standing firm in God’s Word. The Word is the living bread from heaven, sent to feed us spiritually so we won’t die. We must stay hungry for this bread, because liberally partaking of it makes us grow and mature as Christians.

“A good man deals graciously and lends; he will guide his affairs with discretion. He will not be afraid of evil tidings; his heart is steadfast, trusting in the Lord” (Psalm 112:5, 7, NKJV).
The righteous show mercy and compassion to others, and they use God’s wisdom to guide them in all their dealings. Accepting the Word by faith makes us righteous in God’s eyes. As His righteous children, we can live life unafraid, regardless of what we see happening in the world.
May 4
“I have chosen the way of truth; your judgments I have laid before me” (Psalm 119:30, NKJV).
God gives us a choice as to how we live our lives. When we make a decision to accept by faith the truths contained in the Bible, we walk the path of eternal life. Putting the Word in front of us and concentrating exclusively on it will keep us focused on our Christian walk.
May 3
“And you shall remember the Lord your God, for it is He who gives you power to get wealth, that He may establish His covenant which He swore to your fathers, as it is this day” (Deuteronomy 8:18, NKJV).
The world would have us think that we make our own wealth through our own efforts, but the Word shows us that God is the sole source for everything we need. Put in its proper perspective, money is simply a tool to accomplish the tasks God lays out for us.

“Looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith, who for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God” (Hebrews 12:2, NKJV).
Faith in God’s promises, and in the power of what Jesus did for us on the cross, makes us holy in God’s eyes and worthy to stand in His presence. When our faith falters, we can focus on Jesus, the One whose faith is perfect.

“Then Jesus said to His disciples, ‘If anyone desires to come after Me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow Me’” (Matthew 16:24, NKJV).
When we decide to follow in Jesus’ footsteps, the world will cast disapproval and persecutions our way—we can consider those the cross that Jesus was referring to. To truly tune in to what God wants to say to us, we must stop focusing solely on ourselves, and redirect our attention to Him.
