STEPS TO SUCCESSFUL LIVING
We live in
a culture that loves formulas for success in life. If we are to meet this
culture where they are, why not give them steps to the fullness of life that
God offers each of us through a personal relationship with God.
1. We Are
Powerless:
Romans 7:18
I know nothing good lives in me, that is, in my sinful nature. For I have the
desire to do what is good, but I cannot carry it out.
2. An All
Powerful God Exists
Philippians
2:13 For it is God who works in you to will and to act according to his good
purpose.
3. Choose
God’s Help
Romans 12:1
Therefore, I urge you, in view of God’s mercy, to offer your bodies as living
sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God -- which is your spiritual worship.
4. Take An
Honest Look At Yourself
Lamentations
3:40 Let us examine our ways and test them, and let us return to the Lord.
5.
Specifically Identify The Root Of Your Sin
James 5:16
Therefore confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you
may be healed.
6. Know
That God’s Help Hurts
James 4:10
Humble yourselves before the Lord, and he will lift you up.
