Prayer

Prayer is the power by which that comes to pass which otherwise would not take place.”    Andrew Murray

Discipleship/Confidence

God does not call the qualified, he qualifies the called.

Wisdom

I Cor. 3: 18-19   18 Let no man deceive himself. If any man among you thinks that he is wise in this age, he must become foolish, so that he may become wise. 19 For the wisdom of this world is foolishness before God. For it is written, “He is the one who catches the wise in their craftiness.”

Worry/Security

John 14:9  Jesus said to him, “Have I been so long with you, and yet you have not come to know Me, Philip? He who has seen Me has seen the Father; how can you say, ‘Show us the Father’?

Salvation/Winning others

Matthew 5:1-12 Sermon on the Mount   1 When Jesus saw the crowds, He went up on the mountain; and after He sat down, His disciples came to Him. 2 He opened His mouth and began to teach them, saying, 3  “Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. 4 “Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted.  5  “Blessed are the gentle, for they shall inherit the earth. 6 “Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they shall be satisfied. 7 “Blessed are the merciful, for they shall receive mercy.  8 “Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God. 9 “Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called sons of God. 10 “Blessed are those who have been persecuted for the sake of righteousness, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.  11 “Blessed are you when people insult you and persecute you, and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of Me. 12  “Rejoice and be glad, for your reward in heaven is great; for in the same way they persecuted the prophets who were before you.

The Enemy

The Spirit within us always  wants to do what is true, Satan’s therefore takes what is false in this world and makes it W6D7look like it is the truth.

Trials/Perspective/Victory

Defeat is not failure until you stop trying.

Perspective

A ship in a harbor is safe, but that is not what it was made for.
