Studying the word is truly amazing. The living word of God. Everyday it impacts me by teaching me, encouraging me, it reveals my character, challenges me, and convicts me. How can the same book, do this everyday when you have read the same passages multiple time. Amazing "For the word of God is living and active and sharper than any two-edged sword—piercing right through to a separation of soul and spirit, joints and marrow, and able to judge the thoughts and intentions of the heart." The thing about this sword you never have to sharpen the blade but it sharpens me everyday.

Day 4: That is a kick in the backside for me. Failures and mistakes are still a stumbling block for me. I still let them define me. I know that those things shouldn't define me because I am a new creation. But that is a groove in my brain I have not totally covered up yet.

Day 5: Another mind renewal challenge. I will admit I get caught in the trap of believing what I see. My 5 senses can rule my thoughts. When I coached baseball for my sons little league teams I would try to teach the players to focus on the ball. I would hold the ball up about 10’-15’ away from them and ask them what they saw. They would see my arm, my hand holding the ball, even the coaches behind me. Then I would tell them read the letters on the ball. When they did this they could not see all the noise around the ball. I 💯 agree with the teaching, magnify Him! There is something about putting my eye and focus on my heavenly Father; immediately, the world we live in gets small and peace surrounds me. I am reminded of His goodness and faithfulness, how he picked me up and turned me around and placed my feet in solid ground!! Hallelujah! Stay focused, laser focused on Him! Magnify the Lord with me, lets exalt His name together.

Spot on! We don't know how the giants felt But we know how Jericho felt. Great fear. Rahab had so much fear that is resulted in faith! Her faith saved her family. “What then shall we say in view of these things? If God is for us, who can be against us?” ‭‭Romans‬ 8:31 Every situation we have to calculate through those glasses. Did God say go? Did He say take the land? If yes, then you can bank on the land it yours because He will work in the hearts of those who oppose you. He will move the mountain. We serve the creator of the universe. Remember your victories your lion and bear. Those are faith builders to help you see God is in front of you. First foundational faith. Builder for most of us. Our Salvation!

“Love Adonai your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength. These words, which I am commanding you today, are to be on your heart. You are to teach them diligently to your children, and speak of them when you sit in your house, when you walk by the way, when you lie down and when you rise up.” ‭‭Deuteronomy‬ ‭6‬:‭5‬-‭7‬ ‭TLV‬‬ https://bible.com/bible/314/deu.6.5-7.TLV

Psalms 128 Blessed is everyone who fears the Lord, who walks in his ways!2 You shall eat the fruit of the labor of your hands; you shall be blessed, and it shall be well with you. 3 Your wife will be like a fruitful vine within your house; your children will be like olive shoots around your table.4 Behold, thus shall the man be blessed who fears the Lord. 5 The Lord bless you from Zion! May you see the prosperity of Jerusalem all the days of your life!6 May you see your children's children! Peace be upon Israel!
