Verse A Day....

Keeps the ENEMY away......
So many of us desire to know God's word intensely and apply it to our daily lives. It is not an easy thing to do. The enemy will steal our time, our focus, our motivation, etc. to keep us from gaining the ONE thing that helps us fight against him. If you are walking with the Lord and live your day to day schedule to making His name known.....the enemy is after you! When your feet hit the floor every morning, you are stepping into a new day on the battle field. Scripture tells us that we do not battle against flesh and blood, but against spiritual powers and dark forces. What better way to fight this battle than with a weapon that is sharper than any two-edge sword.... God's Word. If you are making a better attempt or striving to learn more of God's word, here are a couple options that may help motivate or help strengthen the weapon that is necessary in battling this thing called life.
Bath Crayons
Most of us shower every day, if not, every other day...hopefully. Therefore, buy some cheap bath crayons at Wal-Mart, they should be in the bubble bath section, and write a verse or two on your shower wall. While your shampooing your hair, read these verses over and over again. Before long, these verses will be engraved on the tablet of your heart and ready to be used in the moment the enemy tries to attack.
Spiral Note Cards
Notecards can be taken with you everywhere. Put them in your purse and pull out the verses at any point of your day...... red lights, grocery store lines, treadmill, watching TV, etc.....
Dry Ease Markers
Write a verse on your mirror in your bathroom. We spend at least an hour or more in front of it every day...what better way to put on your make-up or straighten your hair while reading a short verse or two.

How much more effective could we all be if we made a more conscious effort to study God's word and apply it to our day. Try it and see how it works for you.

HAPPY MONDAY
