Trust and obey.

One takeaway I keyed on: “Our work is the evidence of Jesus work in our lives”. I love this. Amen! Thank you Pastor Vince.

[@VinceLeeMiller]

Yes!

[@JackElsasser]

Assessing myself, I don't think that i show favoritism in the church, but of course I could be wrong. But I realize now that where I tend to show partiality is when there are others present of a non Christian faith or no faith. They, too, are God's children. And living out my faith includes when no one else is there. Great teaching Pastor Vince!

[@VinceLeeMiller]

Right on Jack!

I need to start interacting with ones in church that I normally just pass by. Thanks!

[@VinceLeeMiller]

Building connections within the church body is a powerful way to grow in faith and community. A simple conversation or gesture can make a huge difference for someone. Praying God gives you boldness and opportunities to connect with those you might not usually interact with.

Great anointed teaching! I will be intentional living out my faith

[@VinceLeeMiller]

@oakhaven30126 Thank you for the kind words! Your commitment to living out your faith intentionally is inspiring. When we walk with purpose, God uses even the small steps to make a big impact.

I’ve been repenting immediately when I judge people by their appearance and actions. I want to see them the way Christ see’s them. The Lord is so faithful to discipline His children. Thank you Father… continue to have your way as you teach me to die to myself. Psalm 139:13-15 NLT You made all the delicate, inner parts of my body and knit me together in my mother's womb. [14] Thank you for making me so wonderfully complex! Your workmanship is marvelous-how well I know it. [15] You watched me as I was being formed in utter seclusion, as I was woven together in the dark of the womb.

[@VinceLeeMiller]

Wow, Joe, your words really hit home-even convicted me! What an incredible testimony of humility and letting the Lord transform your heart. Seeing others through Christ’s eyes is such a powerful goal, and it’s amazing how faithful God is in teaching us when we surrender to Him. Psalm 139 is a beautiful reminder of how intentionally and wonderfully God creates each of us. Thank you for sharing this-it’s truly inspiring. Keep letting Him lead as you continue to grow!

[@mikelesher4331]

I need to start building my works to match my beliefs. Thanks for the great message!

[@VinceLeeMiller]

@mikelesher4331 That’s a powerful realization, Mike! Faith and works go hand in hand, and it’s inspiring that you’re ready to take steps to align your actions with your beliefs. God will honor your commitment as you live out your faith in practical ways. Keep pressing forward-He’s got great plans for you! 🙏💪

[@HerbertHall-oz2hh]

Great information! I love these lessons. My only thought is that I wish the Journals were bigger. I seem to take a lot of notes and do not have the space I need to enter all of my notes. You don't have a larger version like 8.5 x 11? None the less this is amazing thank you Vince for being God's tool to reach men of faith who are trying to grow.

[@VinceLeeMiller]

@HerbertHall-oz2hh Thank you for the kind words and encouragement-it means a lot! I’m so glad you’re finding the lessons helpful and that you’re taking so many notes-that’s a sign of real growth and engagement. I don’t currently have a larger version of the journal, but that’s a fantastic idea! I’ll definitely keep it in mind for the future.

[@jamesferrell2999]

Great stuff MR M

[@VinceLeeMiller]

@jamesferrell2999 Thanks, James! I appreciate the encouragement. Let’s keep striving to grow in faith and live out God’s truth daily. Blessings to you, brother! 🙌

[@KenPlace]

Very good teaching

[@VinceLeeMiller]

@KenPlace Thank you, Ken! I'm so glad you found the teaching valuable. May it continue to inspire and encourage you in your walk with Christ. Keep pressing on in faith! 🙏

[@irwinperez9516]

Great teaching !

[@VinceLeeMiller]

Glad it was helpful!

[@Twiceborn_by_grace]

I’m done feeling alone because the people around me basically ignore me. I’m not OT Israel wanting a king like the nations. I recognize that I have a King and His name is Jesus.

[@VinceLeeMiller]

@Twiceborn_by_grace What a powerful declaration of faith! It's hard feeling overlooked, but you're absolutely right-you're not alone. You have a King who sees you, knows you, and loves you deeply.

[@tomwaller2953]

BINGO....Does your BEHAVIOR reflect your BELIEF.

[@VinceLeeMiller]

Thanks for calling this out-such a great reminder for all of us to live it out daily! 🙌

[@BeTheLight68]

I confess that I am not being obedient in the area of seeking to engage with others who don’t fit into my social group surrounding. Lord forgive me and encourage me to engage others who make me feel uncomfortable.

[@VinceLeeMiller]

@BeTheLight68 Thank you for your honesty and humility-what a powerful confession! It takes courage to recognize areas where God is calling us to grow. He is so faithful to forgive and equip us when we step out in obedience.

[@THEOPPSTOPPERBIGRAGA]

Start treating my wife and family better and not just people at church

[@VinceLeeMiller]

@THEOPPSTOPPERBIGRAGA That’s a powerful step, and it shows humility and a desire to grow. Your family is your first ministry, and loving them well honors God deeply.
