1 John 3:18- ...we must stop expressing love merely by our words and manner of speech; we must love also in action and in truth.
The scriptures states, that God’s people can do all things through Christ who strengthens them. Sometimes it feels like our efforts are going nowhere. This is the time to review the vision or plans that are at hand. Ask yourself, what do I want to do in life? This is an area that is so necessary to get on one accord. Decide together what your vision is for your marriage, family or even how to get along for the next 7 days and discipline yourself with the word of God and practice self-control to see it come to pass.
Continue to persevere and do what is required now, so that you can experience the joy that waits in the future. The enemy wants to occupy our minds and influence us to look at the negative things in life. Don’t focus on the mishaps or distractions, but continue to be cheerful (John 16:33). Refuse to allow the enemy to control your mental, emotional, spiritual and physical way of doing things, that's how you stay out of the ditch. Seek support from God, be connected to church groups and friends who trust God. Believe in yourself, continue to reach your goals and Keep the VISION before you. (Philippians 4:13).
PRAYER Lord, we chose to put into practice all that we have learned and received in our walk with you. As a couple we choose to serve even when it seems impossible, we know that our victories will benefit others. Our vision that we have written and committed to you, may it become alive and speak blessings upon our marriage, family and whatever our hands touch. May our actions be a reflection of how sensible we are to outward things, and how strong we will be during hardship. We will continue in prayer in all that we do, receiving your mercy and giving you thanks. May your peace reconcile our whole being in Jesus name.
