    1) Master what you can control - your mind, your choices, your discipline.

    2) Live your philosophy quietly - embody truth, don't perform it.

    3) Be charitable toward people - don't judge, don't take revenge.

    4) Accept hardship as training - no complaining, use it

    5) Live urgently and humbly - you will die, make today matter.

    These ideas have shaped people's lives for centuries. All are valuable and can have directional impacts on your life. However, each one needs more Jesus! Don't we all, and don't all things, just need a little more Jesus? Well, maybe a lot. Let's take these ancient truths for self-improvement and add to them divine concepts of the Messiah, and then they can truly become The Supreme Five!

    The believer rests in Christ. Not just one day, but today. We are seated with Him in a place of protection, help, and assurance. He is with us always, even right now, and with Him comes omnipotence and glory. We are saved, secured, and safe.

    It is only from this seat that we can truly walk. And I don't mean just get up and start walking. I mean that what is true spiritually remains true: you are seated with Christ, even as you walk. The walk reflects the relationship. It is not an effort to validate what Christ did or to pay Him back. It is not a debt owed. It is a life of hope in Him.

    The devil will attack. He will try to ruin our confidence. But he is a loser. He has lost. We are on Mount Zion; he is in the valley of despair. We have the high ground in Jesus Christ, and the power of Christ to hold that ground.

    Sequence is crucial. You cannot stand if you are not seated, nor walk. Begin with Christ, pray about what is true, find joy in who you are in Him and who He is for you. And walk with life and stand with strength—His strength.

    Notes on a recent sermon: Romans 8 and the Holy Spirit

    5 Amazing Sources of Confidence:

    - No Condmenation in Jesus (8:1-2)

    - Holy Spirit within us (8:9-11; I Cor. 3:16; 6:18-20)

    - Adopted by the Father (8:15-17)

    - Justified and Glorified (8:18, 28-30)

    - In Christ's Amazing Love (8:35-39

    At the same time, we are called to be faithful:

    - Walk by the Spirit, not flesh (8:4-5)

    - Death to deeds of the body (8:12-13)

    - Live in God without fear (8:15-16)

    - Endure suffering with hope (8:18, 23-25)

    - Conform to Christ's image (8:17, 29)

    HOW do I stay confident in Christ when I fall so woefully short of these goals?

    Here are a few things we know that help:

    1) Grace creates a relationship: obedience chooses to live in it.

    2) Faithfulness is about Lordship; no sinless perfection.

    3) Struggle is expected in the Christian, not condemned.

    4) God Gives His HOLY SPIRIT to Help Us in our Walk!

    That last one is HUGE. Here are 8 things Romans 8 teaches that the Holy Spirit is doing. You do not have to explain them. But you must BELIEVE. And pray for these things.

    - He Sets Us Free (8:1-2)

    - He Dwells In Us (8:11)

    - He Gives Life to our Mortal Bodies (8:11)

    - He Helps us Defeat Sin (8:13)

    - The Spirit Leads us (8:14)

    - He Testifies with us (8:16)

    - He Helps our weaknesses (8:26)

    - The Spirit Interceded in prayer (8:26)
