Memorize and Reflect


For God did not call us to be impure, but to live a holy life. ([bible]1 Thessalonians 4:7[/bible])

Prayer Direction


Ask God to help you desire a more holy life. Also, pray that you will recognize and fight against sin in your life. Pray for new habits of holiness to grow in your life.

“Live It!” Challenge


Getting Accountable – Ask one or two trusted Christian friends if they will keep you accountable in an area of life you face ongoing temptation and sin. Let them know how often you want them to check in with you and give them specific questions to ask. Also, be sure to give them some prayer direction so they can support you in prayer.
