The more I read the Bible the more I am convinced ALL self improvement books derived from the wisdom in the Bible.
Here’s some of my favorite verses & wisdom from the BEST SELLING BOOK OF ALL TIME.
The Author is on another dimension too :)
1) Words kill, words give life;
they are either poison or fruit— YOU CHOOSE!”
-proverbs 18:21
One of my favorite verses!
We have the power to bless & heal or curse & destroy each time we open our mouth (or tweet!)
Choose to build up & give life always! 🙏
2) Why are you destroying yourself? Save me God from the self-destructive desires of my heart.
Consume my sinful desires and let Your mercy preserve my life.”
-Jeremiah 44:7
We all have these self destructive tendencies. Only by grace are we delivered from them. ❤️
3) “To everything there is a season, & a time to every purpose”
-Ecclesiastes 3:1
There are many seasons of life.
Some people are in them forever & some just for a short time.
Nothing is permanent & life’s always changing.
Don’t fear that, EMBRACE IT!
4) “A righteous man falls seven times, and still rises again."
-Proverbs 24:16
Failure is never final unless you quit. Keep getting back up!
Every hero of the Bible endured failures & hardships.
They simply CHOSE to RISE AGAIN & keep moving forward!
5) When you talk, don’t say anything bad. But say the good things that people need—whatever will help them GROW STRONGER! Then what you say will be a blessing to those who hear you.
-Ephesians 4:29
Be a blessing & an encourager.
Kindness has unlimited upside & zero downside.
6) “A self confident fool has no delight in understanding but only in revealing his own opinions and himself."
-Proverbs 18:2
God gave us 2 ears & 1 mouth for a reason.
Don’t always think about what you’re going to say next;
LISTEN TO UNDERSTAND.
7) “Don't worry about anything; instead pray about everything.
Tell God what you need and thank Him for all he has done.
-Phil 4:6
Worrying is like a rocking chair.
It gives you something to do but takes you nowhere.
Gratitude is the antidote to worry!
8) “Act justly, love mercy, walk humbly with your God."
-Micah 6:8
Seek JUSTICE.
Love MERCY. (Even for those that don’t vote, talk or act like you think that should.
Walk HUMBLY.
We are all sinners & fall short.
Less judgment, more empathy & mercy. ❤️
9) “Don’t copy the behavior and customs of this world, but let God transform you into a new person by CHANGING THE WAY YOU THINK. Then you will learn to know God’s will for you, which is good and pleasing and perfect.”
-Romans 12:2
God is the OG of mindset!!! 🙌❤️
10) “What will it profit a man if he gains the whole world, yet forfeits his soul?”
-Matthew 16:26
Money can’t buy:
•Integrity
•Courage
•Peace
•Truth
•Love
Our legacy is who we are forever.
Never trade that for money or power which are temporary.
I could list 100 more verses.
I love reading the Bible.
It’s also such a gift to be able to listen to the best preachers each week as they record sermons.
I listen to 3-4 every week.
Skip Netflix one night & try it too.
Focus on seeing life through an eternal lens.
Faith is extremely personal.
I don’t shove mine onto others.
I subscribe to the saying,
“Preach the gospel everyday & seldom speak about it.”
If you consider yourself a Jesus person I urge you to shine bright today & always as well!
The victory is won.
Live like it!!
Others should see us & the way we live & think how do they have so much peace, joy, compassion, love, & seem so darn happy!
(Then we get to say IT’S JESUS!!)
This doesn’t happen when we judge, look down, argue on social media, languish & live in fear.
I’m extremely grateful for the Bible & what faith in Jesus & the gift of His Spirit have done in my life.
I’ll never forget the day I was challenged by a friend & mentor to pray 1 prayer each day,
“God if you’re real show yourself to me.”
I didn’t know if He was when I prayed.
I didn’t know what to expect, but for 30 days I prayed that same prayer.
Then, one night around midnight on a run in Las Vegas a miracle occurred & God did reveal Himself to me.
It was the first of dozens of miracles I’ve witnessed since.
I hope wherever you are today you pause & think over some bigger questions too.
I challenge you to pray that prayer if you’re like I was & on the fence about the whole God thing.
Thanks for reading & have the best day ever.
