Day 100


Isaiah 58:13-14

New Living Translation (NLT)

 13 “Keep the Sabbath day holy.
      Don’t pursue your own interests on that day,
   but enjoy the Sabbath
      and speak of it with delight as the Lord’s holy day.
   Honor the Sabbath in everything you do on that day,
      and don’t follow your own desires or talk idly.

Isaiah 58:13-14

The Message (MSG)
 13-14"If you watch your step on the Sabbath
   and don't use my holy day for personal advantage,
If you treat the Sabbath as a day of joy,
   God's holy day as a celebration,
If you honor it by refusing 'business as usual,'
   making money, running here and there—
Then you'll be free to enjoy God!
   Oh, I'll make you ride high and soar above it all.
I'll make you feast on the inheritance of your ancestor Jacob."
   Yes! God says so!


God wants us to use the Sabbath to renew ourselves. A lot think it has to be Sunday. Well what day are you off? What Day brings you the most renewal    time? That is the day you take.

Day 99


John 16:31-33

New Living Translation (NLT)
 31 Jesus asked, “Do you finally believe? 32 But the time is coming—indeed it’s here now—when you will be scattered, each one going his own way, leaving me alone. Yet I am not alone because the Father is with me.33 I have told you all this so that you may have peace in me. Here on earth you will have many trials and sorrows. But take heart, because I have overcome the world.”


Jesus overcame the world so we didn't have to. So why do we keep trying to do it ourselves?

Day 98


Luke 17:1-10

New Living Translation (NLT)
Teachings about Forgiveness and Faith
 1 One day Jesus said to his disciples, “There will always be temptations to sin, but what sorrow awaits the person who does the tempting! 2 It would be better to be thrown into the sea with a millstone hung around your neck than to cause one of these little ones to fall into sin. 3 So watch yourselves!   “If another believer sins, rebuke that person; then if there is repentance, forgive. 4 Even if that person wrongs you seven times a day and each time turns again and asks forgiveness, you must forgive.”
 5 The apostles said to the Lord, “Show us how to increase our faith.”
 6 The Lord answered, “If you had faith even as small as a mustard seed, you could say to this mulberry tree, ‘May you be uprooted and thrown into the sea,’ and it would obey you!
 7 “When a servant comes in from plowing or taking care of sheep, does his master say, ‘Come in and eat with me’? 8 No, he says, ‘Prepare my meal, put on your apron, and serve me while I eat. Then you can eat later.’ 9And does the master thank the servant for doing what he was told to do? Of course not. 10 In the same way, when you obey me you should say, ‘We are unworthy servants who have simply done our duty.’”





Forgiveness is not easy but to have faith that what you forgive will become blessing to you makes life less work!

Day 97


Proverbs 6:16-19

The Message (MSG)

Seven Things God Hates
 16-19 Here are six things God hates,
    and one more that he loathes with a passion:
      eyes that are arrogant,
      a tongue that lies,
      hands that murder the innocent,
      a heart that hatches evil plots,
      feet that race down a wicked track,
      a mouth that lies under oath,
      a troublemaker in the family.



Think about this just to live a good life with God you should do the above. Got to say we've got it pretty easy!

Day 96


2 Corinthians 2:5-8

New International Version (NIV)

Forgiveness for the Offender
 5 If anyone has caused grief, he has not so much grieved me as he has grieved all of you to some extent—not to put it too severely. 6 The punishment inflicted on him by the majority is sufficient. 7 Now instead, you ought to forgive and comfort him, so that he will not be overwhelmed by excessive sorrow. 8 I urge you, therefore, to reaffirm your love for him.

Its not easy to forgive but it is one less worry for you.

Day 95


Romans 8:15

New Living Translation (NLT)

 15 So you have not received a spirit that makes you fearful slaves. Instead, you received God’s Spirit when he adopted you as his own children. Now we call him, “Abba, Father.”

Ephesians 1:5

New Living Translation (NLT)
5 God decided in advance to adopt us into his own family by bringing us to himself through Jesus Christ. This is what he wanted to do, and it gave him great pleasure.


Proverbs 31:8-9

New Living Translation (NLT)

 8 Speak up for those who cannot speak for themselves;
      ensure justice for those being crushed.
 9 Yes, speak up for the poor and helpless,
      and see that they get justice.


James 1:27

The Message (MSG)
 26-27Anyone who sets himself up as "religious" by talking a good game is self-deceived. This kind of religion is hot air and only hot air. Real religion, the kind that passes muster before God the Father, is this: Reach out to the homeless and loveless in their plight, and guard against corruption from the godless world.



This is just some of what God says. Sounds like He never wanted anyone to not believe in Him. He wants all just as He wants all to Love each other. No matter where you are in life we are to love each other, poor, rich, homeless, no mom or dad, etc we are all equal in His eyes!
