Self-controlled and alert

“Be self-controlled and alert.  Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour.  Resist him, standing firm in the faith…And the God of all grace… will himself restore you and make you strong, firm and steadfast.”

-1 Peter 5:8-11

Be sensitive and open to the promptings of your heart, as those are the promptings of The Spirit guarding you and keeping you out of trouble.

Nothing to fear

"...Put out into deep water, and let down the nets for a catch... 

Don't be afraid..."

Luke 5:4, 10 NIV

When you are following Jesus and taking steps to follow the promptings he places on your heart, then no matter how big the storm, you can stay in peace knowing that there is nothing to fear, he has your back and he will not fail you - not now, not ever!!

Follow the commands of God - He is trying to bless you!

"... for the Lord our God is [uncompromisingly] righteous and rigidly just in all His works which He does [keeping His word]..." Daniel 9:14

No matter if you heed the promptings, words, commands and/or directions, of God, He will always do what He says He is going to do.  Ignoring any of His promptings, words, commands and/or directions, simply make your life more complicated, sometimes to the point of hitting rock-bottom. 

Therefore, be on board with God in all things, and in all your ways, because He lives through, in, and around you, to bless you, not harm you.  My friend, God wants to give you, and bless you with, the best life possible here on Earth.  He is not to be ignored - He is only trying to protect you - LET HIM!  

So, listen to and follow God in all your ways, in everything you do, and the fulfillment of life in abundance will be yours to LIVE!! 

Praise God - Be Blessed.
