Coming Clean
(Nehemiah 10:1-31)
Week of April 22, 2018

Read Nehemiah 10:1-31. Ask the Lord to speak to you through the passage.

Consider the Faith Principles from the passage and pray about them.

Faith Principle #1
Faith understands that we must be separate from the world.

As you seek to maintain the walls in your life, your marriage, your family and the church, do you recognize that there are influences in your life that lead to your sinning? Ask the Lord to help you to identity and separate from the negative influences in your life.

Faith Principle #2
Faith knows that God will support us as we deal with sin.

Do you feel overwhelmed and alone in your struggle with sin? Ask the Lord to help to trust him to support you with strength and wisdom as you deal with your sin.

Faith Principle #3
Faith makes the adjustments to bring your life into obedience.

Are you aware of what needs to change in the life (decisions, friends, etc.) in order for you to live a life of obedience to Jesus? Ask the Lord to help you make the adjustments and to give you the strength to continue in them.

Faith Principle #4
Faith takes radical steps to deal with sinful compromise.

What are the sacrifices that the Lord is calling you to make as you deal with the compromise in your life? Ask the Lord to calm your fears and help you to step out and do the radical things that are needed for you to seek to live an uncompromising life.
