Read 1 Peter 3:18-22
What does God’s love mean to you?
How do you trust in His love?
Baptism is like a mini-resurrection! When someone goes under the water, it is like dying with Christ and when they come out they are a new creation! It is an outward sign of an inward work. (Check out Romans 6:1-14)
Have you been baptized? If so, what was it like? If not, consider it!
—Scripture Notes and Additional Questions
Morning Prayer
This week we are asking GOD for holy spirit power each morning.
Holy Spirit, You are with me today. You are my helper. Will and work in me today to fulfill Kingdom purposes. Fill me with power to overcome temptation and push back the darkness so the Father’s will is done in my life and those around me. Bring healing, freedom and victory to my soul by Your power in my life. I will see victories in my life, not because of my strength, but because of Your power at work within me.
—Adapted from john 16:7; Philippians 2:13; Acts 1:8

Today’s motivation
“Nothing feels good about doing nothing.” Be sure to accomplish something everyday. Procrastination feels good for about 2 minutes then whatever you put off just lingers in your subconscious getting bigger and bigger causing stress and regret. Get after it today!

Set an alarm for this evening so you remember to end your day with God.
Jesus, thank you for paying the price for my sin, making a way for me to have a relationship with God. Thank you for the new life you brought to me when I surrendered my life to You. Continue to do a work in my heart and renew my mind. I pray that my life would honor You with each step I take. Use me to reach those who are far from You.
