Dudes 2 Disciples

On August 23, our men's ministries from across the state will gather at the NLC Conway campus for a night of community, great food, worship, and teaching designed specifically for the men of our church! As we start the fall out strong, we want to encourage and give vision to the men leading our homes and communities. Invite the guys in your life and we’ll see you there!

“He gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak. Even youths grow tired and weary, and young men stumble and fall;”
‭‭Isaiah‬ ‭40:29-30‬ ‭NIV‬‬

We all get tired from time to time. Weak, sluggish, grumpy. But God will give us strength when we need it. We will becomes stronger as our faith grows with God. Remember he is the most powerful, he will provide the energy that we need. If you fall it’s ok, we must remember God will help us back up and strengthen us even more. Your legs are strong your back is strong. Keep your faith and watch as you will move mountains.

Prayer
Lord thank you for giving me the heart of a lion and the back of a mule. I know I can do all things with you. I know that I will get tired along the way, but with you beside me I will get that renewed awaking. Lord please continue the good works you have started with me and allow me to continue on. I can not thank you enough for being in my heart and in my life. Please fill me with love and strength and honor.
In your name
Amen.

“A soft answer turns away wrath, but a harsh word stirs up anger.”
‭‭Proverbs‬ ‭15:1‬ ‭ESV‬‬

Well all get angry or frustrated from time to time. Pay attention to your words. Stop and think before you say something. For in the end the fight may be over but the words stay forever

Prayer
Lord I ask that you continue to teach me wisdom. I ask that you help me hold my tongue, and know when to speak and say what needs to be said. I ask that you guide me in the truth but hold back when needed. You are my rock lord, my sound barrier, you know what is truly going through my head. Please help me with keeping my words at bay.
In your name
Amen

“For that is what God is like. He is our God forever and ever, and he will guide us until we die.”
‭‭Psalms‬ ‭48:14‬ ‭NLT‬‬

Our God, that’s powerful. He is not just your God, or my God but our God. He will show us the way of life, help walk us through it as a tour guide. The only difference is that God will never leave us. It’s crazy if you think about it. He is there when we are born, and when we die. He never leaves. We leave our families to make new ones but He is still there. Never failing to show us who we are, where we need to go. We speak of faith to give him, and at times we loose our faith, but yet God never looses His. We can learn so much from, that if we just open our eyes and see He is the honorable one.

Prayer
Lord, I know I don’t say this as much as I should, so today I will say it any chance I get. Thank you Lord for loving me, watching over me, guiding me, and helping me grow. Thank you for always being there. Thank you for always loving me. There is so much I can learn from you, please continue to teach me and guide me. I love you Lord with all that I have.
Amen
