Know the reason for your faith, don’t be satisfied until you are well versed in the Gospel.

It’s matter of reckoning within ourselves as to what has to have priority – every one of us has these areas that we cling to.

Pray instead of stiffening up; pray instead of tightening up psychologically; pray instead of getting edgy emotionally and let God handle the situation.

The only way to get rid of fear is to have something or somebody that’s stronger than what threatens you.

If you want things to be better, start doing all that you know to be the Will of God.

God is ready to answer when he hears our prayers. Learn to pray earnestly, persistently until you get through to an answer.

If you want to have a life that is fulfilling these are what you should include: right words, do good in the setting you’re placed in, seek peace and avoid confrontation, know God sees you and hears your prayers.

God said, “Seek peace.” So that means, look for the non-combative, non-confrontational way of relating to people and to issues.

The meaning of “seeing good days” includes the joy of the Lord and knowing each day is an adventure.The secret of a blessed life is seeking peace and living in the presence of the Lord.

When others treat you poorly, be a blessing to them instead. God’s purpose for you involves being a blessing to others. Our example of blessing is found in the character of God and how He blesses us.
