Growing in Grace
I need to develop godly attitudes.
A) Pray for godly attitudes in general & certain attitudes in particular.
B) Ask others to pray the same thing for you.
C) Repeat the attitude to help it sink in. Do this in conjunction with A & B!
Attitudes.
1. I need to be careful. Because I am fallen, my anger can be consuming and addictive.
2. If the Lord takes no delight in the death of a sinner, but hopes they will turn from their evil and live - so will I.
3. If you believe the Lord’s promises, why do you not believe His warnings?
I need to grow in prayer.
A great way to do this is to learn to pray the Bible. Pray this prayer until you can pray without reading:
Almighty God, by whose single offering of Your Son and our Saviour has perfected for all time those whom You are sanctifying; help us by the Holy Spirit to enter into Your presence through Christ, and there find help to put away our ongoing sin; and help to stir up love and good words in ourselves and in Your church. In Jesus’ Name. Amen.
I need to get God’s word in my mind and heart.
“It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.”
Hebrews 10:31 (ESV)
