Day 4 Bible Verse for the Year
For the
next year, pick a verse that you want to focus on and live. Let it be your
mission statement for the next year. Use it be your banner to focus on what God
is telling you.
Make
sure to pick the verse God is telling you to pick—and not the verse you want.
Then,
make sure it’s visible. Put it everywhere you can so that it stares you in the
face, so to speak, all year long. Also, memorize it so you can say it to
yourself all night and day as well for the next year.
Commit
to it. Make sure that you plan on living it each and every day all night and
day long.
Study
it. Spend the entire year studying it and learning from it. Talk to God about
it and listen to what God has to tell you about it.
Apply
it to your life. Live it all year long, each day.
Tells
others about it.
Stick
with it. Do not let a day go by that you do not think on it, prayer journal about
it, and so on.
Finally,
make sure to attach a comment to the end of this blog post, or at the end of
any on my blog, and let me and the others who are part of this community know
of your choice. Let us encourage one another and check in with one another
about it.
HOMEWORK: PRAYER JOURNAL AND
CONTEMPLATION QUESTION
What
verse will be your focus and mission statement verse for the next year?
The Lord gave me Psalm 32:8 for my life verse when I came to Christ and He saved me. "I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go; I will counsel you with My eyes upon You." I COUNT ON THE PROMISE OF THIS VERSE EVERY DAY. He has fulfilled this constantly as I've been married, raised children, now with grandchildren, through sickness and how to maintain health, and to know and love Him, to know and trust His character and heart. Just a few examples. Always He instructs, teaches and counsels me. By giving me the verse, He told me to expect Him to, so I did and do. The verse is the substance upon which I place my faith and assurance that He will meet my need for His revelations. But I never thought about seeking Him for a scripture or passage upon which to found the year. I will now for 2014. Thanks, Stacy.
