Help Your Team | Facing Your Blitz Weekly Video Devotion

,

You may not be rooting for your favorite team. Watch this and recommit yourself to bringing out the best in your ultimate team.

Game Plan:

“Therefore encourage one another and build one another up, just as you are doing” I Thessalonians 5:11, ESV

(So speak encouraging words to one another. Build up hope so you’ll all be together in this, no one left out, no one left behind. I know you’re already doing this; just keep on doing it.) – from The Message, by Eugene Peterson

“Let us think of ways to motivate one another to acts of love and good works.” Hebrews 10:24, NLT

Time Out:

Is your life about “me” or “WE”?

Are you very conscious to identify yourself as a teammate to others?

Are you looking for encouragement? Or giving it?

When you drive your car… or have a free moment in the day…or when you get quiet to pray… and when you lay down to bed…do you think, pray and plan how you can help others know their value, feel loved and be their best?

Ask God to give you humility and a heart to identify yourself by the quality of your relationships.

Go Deep:

Ask God to give you humility and a heart to identify yourself by the quality of your relationships. 

Think team.  Act team.  Speak encouragement to the team. 

Cheer for your spouse and kids. 

Pray for God’s best ways to serve, encourage and assist them. 

Help God bring out the best in them.

PS.  Over 10,000 couples registered to get away to a Weekend To Remember during the last two weeks.  That’s way more than last year at this time.  Marriage rejuvenation on the way

Give Up Your Seat | Facing Your Blitz Weekly Video Devotion

,

It’s crazy how we can be blind to our own hypocrisy and selfishness. Watch this story and return to being the best version of you.

Game Plan:

“And as you wish that others would do to you, do so to them.” Luke 6: 31, ESV

Time Out:

When you get in line at the airport or look for seats or overhead luggage space on a plane, does your concern for yourself crowd out any consideration of others? Do you want to be served and treated special? That was not the way Jesus lived. Remember that your character is who you are in all situations, with all people.

Go Deep:

Our character won’t be golden unless we follow the Golden Rule. A great starting point is to consider how much grace and undeserved love God has showered on us. Gratitude. If we start with gratitude, treating others well will be way easier. If we take joy in treating people well, we will start to do it naturally and consistently.

Next time you travel, consider the other people’s comfort, even giving away a good seat.

Next time you are in traffic, drive your thoughts toward gratitude to God. Then, slow down to make room for cars trying to merge into your lane. Ya…that’s a tough one!

Next time things get stressed in your marriage or family, be grateful for your spouse and kids. Then, make an effort to improve their day or sacrifice to make their situation easier.

Oh…don’t forget to look at last weeks video about hope for marriages and the special half price Weekend To Remember. Invest in your joy and his or hers To find a Weekend to Remember near you, go to https://weekendtoremember.com

Turn Your Marriage Around | Facing Your Blitz Weekly Video Devotion

,

Ray and Felissia were headed toward divorce. Hear their turnaround story and watch to see the hope and help available for you too.

Game Plan:

“Don’t be misled—you cannot mock the justice [ just ways ] of God. You will always harvest what you plant.” Galatians 6:7, NLT

Time Out:

We reap what we sow. We get out what we put in. Assets grow when we invest. Effort pays off. If this is so, why do we dream that marriage will be easy and automatic? Why think that relationships shouldn’t take work?

Why would we think that ‘struggling and unhappy’ is the best we can get? God invented marriage to succeed when we depend upon Him and follow His blueprints.

Go Deep:

Don’t give up on your marriage or settle for average. Get some coaching and put some effort every year into building your marriage.

There are lots of ways to deepen your marriage…books, videos, mentors and counselors. One pathway has helped over a million people. It’s what we do at FamilyLife where I work…the Weekend to Remember marriage getaway.

INVEST…get away for a weekend of fun and fueling your marriage or tell a young couple or friends that you’ll pay for their registration.

I really want you and your spouse to be blessed and to thrive. Take advantage of our SPOUSES GO FREE promotion by September 19 and use my group name, JeffKemp. It’s the best price we offer all year! Find locations and dates and register at WeekendToRemember.com
