Next Steps: Part III

What are some of the next steps that God wants us to take in our spiritual lives? We’ve talked about the difference between trying and training? How many have tried and failed vs how many have trained and finished? If I trained and committed to run a marathon, could I finish a marathon? Yes. The Bible tells us that we are to train: stop trying and start training. Two of the disciplines of the Christian life are Bible study and prayer. What practical principles can we apply? We are going to see this illustrated in the Bible in Mark 1. How did your homework go last week? Remember the 15 minutes? 7.5 minutes of Bible reading and 7.5 minutes of prayer. How many would be honest that you did that this past week? I’m going to go out of a limb that you received a blessing from this.
