Self-Control

Listen to the Podcast

Good morning!

Today is Memorial Monday - The Financial Accelerator. 

Mondays are a reminder that a Memorial Portion, just one very small step of faith, can help you remember that God is with you and He's more than enough. One small step of faith can open up a supernatural flow of whatever you need. 

When Jesus multiplied the fish and loaves, it started with just a little bit of bread and fish. 

When the widow woman was down to her last meal Elijah had her make him a small cake first. 

If finances are tight... Give a few dollars.

If a relationship is strained... Do one small kind act for the person. 

If you are pressed for time... Give away a few minutes to someone else.

If something looks overwhelming take one small step in that direction. 

Here is today's communion meditation.

 In Acts 24:25 the apostle Paul was talking with the ruler Felix. And it says, " As Paul talked about righteousness, self-control and the judgment to come."

It's interesting that when Paul finally had an opportunity to speak with Felix he talked about these three things. 

Righteousness is a huge part of the New Covenant, but so is self-control, which is a fruit of the Spirit. 

I think of self-control in two ways. We've been given self-control in that we can be disciplined, but we've also been given self-control meaning that we've been given the ability to control the direction of our lives, just like a pilot is in control of a plane or ship. 

In today's communion we are asking God to help us understand the self-control we've been given in Christ. 

Today's Health and Fitness Tip

Self-control in our health and fitness is very important. It helps us stick to the workout and nutrition plan that we set out to execute.  

I am praying for you.
