Thinking with Yourself

 

Thinking with Yourself

 

It is so easy to listen to that little voice

Way down deep inside

The one that says “Take the easy road

It makes a smoother ride”

 

But another Voice is clearly heard—

The One we should really heed

The words that whisper “Take up the Cross”

Let this be our daily creed

 

So when trials come—and they often do

Don’t think thoughts just of you

Fellowship in the suffering of Christ

His grace will see you through

It All Depends on God!

Esther 4:13-17, Luke 11:2-10

 

1.      Thy Name—there is no other way to come to the Throne of Grace except through the Name of Jesus—worshiping together

2.      Thy Kingdom—yielding to God’s control in every area. This is letting the Word of God dwell in us richly in all wisdom—walking together

3.      Thy Will—putting down our own desires and thoughts and picking up what God wants for us—working together

4.      Thy Gifts—daily bread. Strength to do right

5.      Thy Forgiveness—healing and cleansing when we do wrong

6.      Thy Leading—Away from the temptation to listen to self. Just say No!

7.      Thy Delivering—We should not want to be part of anything that would hurt the cause of Christ.
