Ask God to show you the next good step He wants you to take to follow His will. Pray for a heart and mind that dreams as big as the heart and power of God!


“Live It!” Challenge

Take Your Next Step – Identify one specific area of your life where you are stuck spiritually. Then, pray through the seven lessons you learn from Abraham’s journey of taking one step at a time following God’s will. Begin taking one step at a tie toward God’s will in this area of your life.
