SCRIPTURE READING
Eph 4:26-31 Be angry and do not sin; do not let the sun go down on your anger, and give
no opportunity to the devil. Let the thief no longer steal, but rather let him labor, doing
honest work with his own hands, so that he may have something to share with anyone in
need. Let no corrupting talk come out of your mouths, but only such as is good for building
up, as fits the occasion, that it may give grace to those who hear. And do not grieve the
Holy Spirit of God, by whom you were sealed for the day of redemption. Let all bitterness
and wrath and anger and clamor and slander be put away from you, along with all malice.

1. One by one, confess your sin to God. Ask Him to cleanse you from this sin and to forgive
you.
2. Go through each of the sins that you checked and ask God to fill you with their opposite.
For example, if you checked off fear, ask God to fill you with peace. If you checked off
materialism, ask God to fill you with contentment.
3. Commit to warring against sin in your life and commit to confessing sin regularly. Ask the
Holy Spirit to help mature you and grow you.
