Zechariah 8:21 and the inhabitants of one city will go to another and say, “Let us go at once to entreat the Lord and seek the Lord Almighty. I myself am going.”
Do you shy away from showing people you love God? Do you hide the fact you are a Christian?
God has given us a choice to follow Him, or not – it is our choice to make.
Allow people to see you have made the choice to love God so they will one day be encouraged to do the same...

Nehemiah 2:5 and I answered the king, ‘If it pleases the king and if your servant has found favour in his sight, let him send me to the city in Judah where my ancestors are buried so that I can rebuild it.’
I was told on many occasions by my Grandmother that if I did not ask I would not receive…
And told on many occasion not to ask such things!
God will always listen to your prayers and when they are coming from your heart, He is willing to answer!

Psalm 19:7 The law of the Lord is perfect, refreshing the soul. The statutes of the Lord are trustworthy, making wise the simple.

God has given us all we need to know to uphold our belief in Him and to supply us for what lies ahead.
Trust in and believe in these words He has given us – any confusion only comes from people, not this scripture!

Philippians 3:7 But whatever were gains to me I now consider loss for the sake of Christ.
What have been your goals you have reached for so far in your life?

Psalm 130:6 I wait for the Lord more than watchmen wait for the morning, more than watchmen wait for the morning.
How often do you sing and shout out to God in praise and worship?
How often do you just sit still and be with God?
God requires a personal connection with you: that can be sitting in silence just as much as singing your lungs out!

Luke 11:9 So I say to you: ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you.
Unless we ask for help others may not know we are in need of help.
There is no crime in asking for help and no judgement should be given against someone asking for help.
God wants to be able to help us all the time, maybe we just need to acknowledge Him as the potential giver!

Psalm 9:3 My enemies turn back; they stumble and perish before you.
What is it which makes you strong?
If you are fighting the fight by yourself you will soon see your weaknesses and failings…
But if you fight with someone else by your side, you may be able to get around those weaknesses through the strengths of the other person.
Take Christ with you at all time to make sure you have the best partner!

Matthew 22:14 “For many are invited, but few are chosen.”
God does not look for the people who pay the most money, talk or sing the loudest or attend the most…
God looks for those who are willing to trust and obey, those who are willing to listen.
God will always love us, but those who are chosen are the ones who love Him!

Psalm 98:2 The Lord has made his salvation known and revealed his righteousness to the nations.
When I first read through this psalm I was relating everything back to the times of King David…
But stop and think… When Jesus came to earth in human form He changed the world by the way He acted!
Will you try change someone by acting a bit more like Jesus?

Psalm 19:3 They have no speech, they use no words; no sound is heard from them.
How many things do you look at and wonder how God was able to make them so beautifully?
How many of the things you do and say reflect God?
We are open books for people to see and hear – the only way we can expect to share the gospel is by showing people we live the gospel in the ways we live and speak.

Really, God does not ask much from us. The more we listen the more we see He is asking everyone to work together!
When we work together as a team we get things accomplished quicker and better.
God wants us to be in a world-wide team!

Psalm 32:1 Blessed is the one whose transgressions are forgiven, whose sins are covered.
David knew full well it was not what He could do for God which got his sins forgiven.

Romans 4:14 For if those who depend on the law are heirs, faith means nothing and the promise is worthless
Do you trust in God? Do you actually trust Him in everything?
So many times we trust in what we can do rather than trusting God because our faith does not quite make it…
Make you faith worth more by trusting God more in every thing in your life.

Psalm 96:5 For all the gods of the nations are idols, but the Lord made the heavens.
When we look to other things in our life as being important, just remember, they are there because God created this all in the beginning!
Nothing should be more important in our lives than God.
When we keep God first, He gives us room to love people and things in the proper way.
