Last of the 12 Step Ladder of Success |

Here we are alive to what is going on as we abide in the
vine; Jesus for as long as we have life we have to remember who we are and what
God wants to give us as we resist Satan and cling to the old rugged cross. We have admitted we are sinners and need to be saved for
we are powerless in ourselves to resist sin, yet God can forgive and forget and
gives us the ability to start living now for him is the first step we take as a
new born child in the Kingdom of God. So the second step is realizing God can restore
us to sanity as we continue to have faith now in God and not things. Now we are
realizing we are in a battle and it is not against one another, or things, but
against the enemy of our souls Satan. We do not need to fear him, but fear Gods
love, mercy and grace, so we want to please our Creator God. So, the third step
is being aware of Gods Holy Spirit to empower us as we abide in Him, for now we
are walking in the way, truth and life that is found in the Bible as we
continue to turn all our problems over to the Lord. Now it’s a daily walking, communicating with the Lord and doing His will. This happens as I remember I
have to search my heart daily for sins that are able to destroy. What I do now
is practice number four making a searching and fearless inventory of what I am
doing to please and obey the Lord, this now is a way of life for me now, as I am
walking and talking with the Lord about my needs, not my wants. Number 5 is
admitting to myself my need of needing help in my wrong behaviors and attitudes
on a daily bases, for I am walking in and out of trouble all the time and the
joy of the Lord is needed 24 hours a day 7 days a week. Number 6 is needing the
Lords help all the time, so these defects of sin do not destroy my relationship
with God and others. Number 7 is always at work for I am humbling myself to His
will so all my short coming is removed as I confess my sins, He is faithful and
just to forgive us of our sins, and purify us from all unrighteousness. 1 John
1:9. Now step eight becomes reality as I have to forgive all who have harmed me
and be willing to make wrongs right. They can’t I can and will do all I can to
keep all safe and sound, as all are important to God. Yes, step nine needs to
be practiced all the time for people want to be safe and sound so no one is
injured. This is seeing step ten become also a daily concern for we have to
constantly make sure our inventory is corrected and admit it when we are wrong.
Living in the arms of the Lord is practicing step 11 as I pray and meditate
upon the word of God, so I have the understanding and the knowledge to us wisdom
to do His will, now I am walking and talking what God wants from me as a
follower of the Lord.

The
first part of this is the same as last week and it is so important to know we
are becoming more and more like the Lord. I am sure your realizing
how important it is to know that sin is sin and it prevents us from being holy and glorified in the
beloved, so number one we have to admit we are sinners and in need of help and
that help come as I abide in the vine as John 15 shows us. Number 2 is making
sure we let God remove all our sins as we are born again and wanting now to
live for Christ. This is being disciplines to read His love letter to become
more and more like him so all bitterness is gone. So, never forgets to make a
decision every day to continue to abide in the Lords loving arms for He cares
for us. So, I am making sure I turn everything over to the Lord, so I climb the
third ring on the ladder of success. I am learning life is always making sure I
keep climbing to the fourth ring of success as I make a moral inventory of what
and who I am. Then step five is admitting to myself and my fellow human being,
I am not perfect, but keeping myself pure in the Blood of the Lamb of God, by
confessing every time I do wrong to God, myself and others, so I can love my
enemies and pray for them. Now I am climbing to the sixth step letting God have
His way as I repent of my defects and character. Then as I look at the seventh
step I am humbly asking God to forgive my shortcoming, so I am faithful to
obeying the Lords will. This gives me the responsibility to climb another ring
to the 8th step, making sure I know who I am harming and willing to
ask them to forgive me and help me to understand everyone matters. I learn the
ninth step is so necessary and that is direct amends need to be made when
possible without hurting self or others. Then we are ready for step

I am sure you're realizing
how important it is to know that sin is sin and it prevents us from being holy
and glorified in the beloved, so number one we have to admit we are sinners and

harming and willing to ask them to forgive me and help me to understand
everyone matters. I learn the ninth step is so necessary and that is direct
amends need to be made when possible without hurting self or others. Then we
are ready for step 10. We continued to take personal inventory
and when we were wrong, promptly admitted it. 1 Corinthians 10:12 I "If you think you
are standing firm, be careful you don't fall." You or I, is so important, that
is I need to keep abiding in the Lord, for without Him we are going to fail. We continue to take
inventory of ourselves to assure we keep a clear conscience, so our memory,
imagination, reasons, and affections are pure and holy, so we are ambassadors
for the Lord. He calls us to walk in the light and we do that when we accept
Romans 12: 1-2 “I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that
you present your bodies, a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which
is a reasonable service. And do not be conformed to this world, but be
transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove that is that good
and acceptable and perfect will of God”. We ask the Holy Spirit to
search us daily and when we are wrong we promptly admit it. This is making sure
the Lord is the one who is inspiring us to become more and more like Him. Our faith has given us
healthier thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. We find our hope is making sure we
are abiding in the Lord. The we are dedicated to worshiping and reverencing
only the Lord, so our faith in God is able to see our prayers answered. We have replaced fear,
guilt, shame, isolation, loneliness, anger and other destructive behaviors
