Think on these things...

Whatever is true, worthy of reverence and honorable, just, pure, lovely and lovable, kind, winsome and gracious, if there is any virtue and excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think on and weigh and take account of these things - fix your minds on them.  Adapted from Philippians 4:8

Do your thoughts fall in line with this verse?  If not, and I know some of mine don’t, then new thoughts are in order! I truly believe that if we can change our thoughts for the better, not only will we help ourselves, but we will help many of those around us.  So, keep your thoughts in line with this verse, not only will your life change for the better, but the lives of those around you will as well.

 

If you are wise...

"So bow to him in deep reverence, one and all!

If you're wise, you'll most certainly worship him."

Job 37:24

The first, and most important, steps to wisdom is to believe in God, worship God, honor God, love God and trust God.  Without these steps, you will never have the wisdom it takes to live in blessing, love, prosperity, health, joy, and peace; without these steps, you will never to really be able to live at all.

Reverence for God.

"In the days of His flesh [Jesus] offered up definite, special petitions [for that which He not only wanted but needed]... and He was heard because of His reverence toward God [His godly fear, His piety, in that He shrank from the horrors of separation from the bright presence of the Father]." Hebrews 5:7 AMPC

When your revere God over and above all else, your prayers get heard - your prayers get answered.  Therefore, spend extra special time with God and let Him know how much you love Him just because He is Who He is, and when your time of want and/or need comes about, He'll hear you and He'll come running to your aid.
