The DISCIPLAN

It takes a lot of discipline and is always important in life to establish, adhere to and maintain an effective daily plan no matter who you are, where you are from and what you have in life. Having such a plan grants peace of mind and flexibility in the event the plan changes at a moment's notice. This is call "The DISCIPLAN!"

So I offer you this 2-day and beyond spiritual challenge to implement within your daily plan or routine. First, when you awake to prepare for the next day's mission, please take the time to say this prayer..."Dear God, Please watch over me as I go through this day. Watch over my family, loved ones and friends and give us all your divine favor to make it to our destinations and back home safely. I give you all the honor, all the glory and all the praise. In your name I pray, amen and amen."

Second, open a bible, choose a particular scripture and read the first 2-3 verses from that scripture. Take a few minutes to see if you can interpret what you have read. If you already have sound knowledge of the bible then ensure you choose a scripture that is challenging for you to ready and interpret certain things. If you lack a lot of biblical knowledge, simply choose a scripture you have some knowledge of or choose one that you may feel comfortable with and do the same as previously mentioned.

Now, as you ready yourself and head out on your journey, make a conscious effort to interpret what you read from the scripture you chose. Once at your destination, find that knowledgeable biblical individual and get their interpretation and compare it to yours. 

As you head home and prior to turning in for the evening, think again about what you read and then perhaps go online to a key biblical breakdown source like Bible Hub or Insight for Living Ministries. Go to the scripture verses you read and then compare it to both yours and the individual you shared it with interpretations to see where you are. 

On Day 2, conduct the same process from start to finish and again see where you stand with regard to your interpretation of God's word. I assure you that God will give you love and favor when you take the time to purposely read, learn and stay in His word. God will also give you comfort and peace of mind.

At the end of the day, this is simply a 2-day biblical spiritual challenge in hopes that it will eventually become a daily biblical spiritual routine for everyone looking to grow in their spiritual life!

Hey, hey, what's up out there again, everybody? I'm your host, Greg Mack of the You Better Plan on It Podcast. Catch me every Tuesday at 12 p.m. Pacific Standard Time, or you can catch me on YouTube live at that same time or go to www.ybetterplan on the podcast.budsprout.com and catch me on one of your favorite sites there. Also hit that subscribe button for me. I definitely appreciate it. Now with that said, let's go ahead and jump on into where we're going today. Dear God, please watch over me as I go through this day. Watch over my family, loved ones, and friends, and give us all your divine favor to make it to our destination and back home safely. In your name we pray. Amen and amen. Simple, cut and dry. Just that prayer. Now, go to your Bible, get a Bible, and choose a particular scripture of choice. And I want you to read those first two to three verses and try to interpret them. For those of you who are into the Bible and know the word, choose a challenging scripture for you. And you know what they are, and try to interpret that. And for those of you who lack the knowledge or don't do it as much, choose something that you feel and then try to interpret it as you're getting ready. Now, once you get to your destination, find that someone who knows the word and see what their interpretation is, and then first tell them what yours is and see what their interpretation is and see how far off it is or how similar it is. Now you've done that. On your way home, think about the two different interpretations. And now that you're home, before you shut it down, get online and go to maybe Bible Hub and get an even more stern breakdown of the words that you read. And now compare the three. Yours, the individual that you spoke with, you shared it with, and now Bible Hub or whatever source you choose. And I'm guarantee it's going to give you favor because you're staying in the Word of God, and that is a big deal. We need the Word now more than ever. Now I want you to do for two this for two consecutive days. Now, I don't believe that everyone that I'm hearing this or tuning in is going to do this for seven straight days every day. But just do it for a couple of days, maybe each week. And then as you ascend into it, then it becomes three or four days a week, four or five days a week, get all the way to seven days a week. And I guarantee you, knowing the word, understanding the word, reading the word, God will see you and hear you, and it'll make everything better. Now, with that said, I'm going to close by saying thank you for your time. I submit to you this challenge. I'm going to do it. I want you to do it and share with others. You know, again, catch me at 12 p.m. Pacific Standard Time every Tuesday. Also, catch me live at that same time on YouTube or go to www.ubetterplan on the podcast.busfrout.com. And always remember a plan that succeeds is a plan that can fill one needs. Thank you. God bless and simplify. Ra
