What does it mean to live a God-first, Christ-led, Holy Spirit-inspired life?
 
Proverbs 3:5-6 (NIV): “Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight.”                                    
 

Let’s practice representing God well. Let’s live a life that put Jesus on display. A life that others look at and say: “I want what she has”. An extraordinary life that glorifies our amazing Father.
 
Ephesians 4:1-3 (NIV): “... I urge you to live a life worthy of the calling you have received. Be completely humble and gentle; be patient, bearing with one another in love. Make every effort to keep the unity of the Spirit through the bond of peace.” 
 

Let us live from a place where we truly believe that God is our strength. In and through His power that is at work in us, nothing is impossible!
 
Psalms 18:1-2 (MSG): “I love you, GOD - you make me strong. GOD is bedrock under my feet, the castle in which I live, my rescuing knight. My God - the high crag where I run for dear life, hiding behind the boulders, safe in the granite hideout.”
 

Are you worried, stressed, lonely, discouraged, or just tired? There is only one place where we can find true rest and peace, where we can refresh ourselves and find the courage we need to boldly step out and become all that God created us to be. That is in the presence of our Father God. True happiness only comes from living in the Shadow of our amazing Father.
 
Psalm 91:1-2 (NIV): "Whoever dwells in the shelter of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty. I will say of the Lord, “He is my refuge and my fortress, my God, in whom I trust.” 

Let us be determined to daily give our lives - our eating, sleeping, drinking, working, EVERYTHING - in total surrender to our Father God. And let’s always have a smile on our faces - reflecting Jesus' light in us.
 
Romans 12:1-2 (MSG): “So here’s what I want you to do, God helping you: Take your everyday, ordinary life - your sleeping, eating, going-to-work, and walking-around life - and place it before God as an offering…”
 

Victory comes from TRUSTING and OBEYING God! Do you truly trust and believe that nothing is impossible for our Father? That you can be victorious in anything because of Jesus?
 
Deuteronomy 1:8: "See, I have placed the land before you; go in and possess the land which the LORD swore to give to your fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, to them and their descendants after them."
