If you do what the word says, you will be able to withstand the storms of life.

Matthew 7:24-25 (KJV) – therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock: and the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was founded upon a rock.

Stop thinking that you don’t deserve another chance or that what you’ve done is too bad to be forgiven.

Please know . . . not one of us is good.

Romans 3:10 (KJV) – as it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one.

There are many among you that are alive, yet are dead.

If you are freed from sin, you are dead to sin.

Romans 6:7 (KJV) – for he that is dead is freed from sin.

You are not saved by yourself, but by grace through your faith.

Not as a result of your works, it’s God’s gift to you.

Ephesians 2:8-9 (KJV) – for by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast.

Be truthful.

It delights the Lord and is a blessing to you.

Proverbs 12:12 (KJV) – lying lips are abomination to the Lord: but they that deal truly are his delight.

Confess your sins to God.

He will forgive you and cleanse you from all your sins.

He promised.

I John 1:9 (KJV) – if we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.

God doesn’t forget His promises, as some may think.

He wants you to have eternal life, but that you repent.

II Peter 2:9 (KJV) – the Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.

When you look for God within, with all your heart, you will find him.

Jeremiah 29:13 (KJV) – and ye shall seek me, and find me, when ye shall search for me with all your heart.

Every promise God made, He will keep.

That means YES to every promise.

II Corinthians 1:20 (KJV) – for all the promises of God in him are yea, and in him Amen, unto the glory of God by us.
