Rom 12:1-2 (NIV) Therefore, I urge you, brothers, in view of God's mercy, to offer your BODIES as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God--this is your spiritual act of worship. Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this WORLD, but be transformed by the renewing of your MIND. Then you will be able to test and approve what GOD’S WILL is--His good, pleasing and perfect will.

Jesus, help me yield to this very powerful passage that lays out what I am to do. Help me understand that it does NOT provide the process for doing it; but, it DOES let me know what to apply The Three Keys To All Of Christianity to. Help me understand that this Scripture is something I do as a lifestyle rather that a onetime event. Because of that, give me additional training on how to get something started and then keep doing it for the rest of my life. Show me that once this is in place, my body door is closed, the door to the world is closed, and the door to the devil is closed.

Jesus, teach me that Satan tries to get to me through my BODY. My body, with its five senses, are his access points. He sends temptations my way through my eyes, my ears, and the sensations of my body. Occasionally he will use my taste and smell; but, mostly it is the touch on my body, sights for my eyes, and sounds for my ears. Make it clear to me that his target is my MIND! Teach me that Satan uses people, the messages of the world, and he can even put thoughts in my mind to attack my body. He tries to get my thoughts, the people around me, and the messages of the world to tempt my body to do wrong, bad, and evil things; and, typically my body is up for it.

Jesus, help me realize that a lot of the time I accidently, ignorantly, and even purposefully leave the door open to Satan’s influence.

• Jesus, spend time with me examining what kind of music I listen to. What kind of words are being presented in these song and what kind of rhythm do they have?


• What kind of content and concepts are in the shows and movies I watch? Show me what the words and actions are that are being PLANTED in my mind.


• Help me carefully examine the kind of literature I look at and read. Let me see and understand the kind of PERMANENT seeds that are being planted in my mind. Teach me that the things I am exposing my five senses to are being recorded and processed in my mind.


• Jesus, also help me honestly and sincerely examine what kind of people I spend time with.


• Help me remember what our conversations have been about.


• What do I do together with them?

Jesus, help me understand that You are right there all during my exposure to everything I do, say, see, and hear. Are You okay with the things I am exposing myself to? Help me search the Bible and see if it agrees with where I go, what I do, who I spend time with, what I watch and listen to, and what I spend my time thinking about. If there are ANY seeds being planted in my mind that aren’t pleasing to You, I now ask You to “weed” them out.

Rom 6:10 (NIV) The death He died, He died to sin once for ALL; but the life He lives, He lives to God. Jesus, You died to sin once for ALL. That included me as one of the “ALL” and that included all my past, present, and future sins. Thank You very much for doing that!

Rom 10:9-10 (NIV) That if you confess with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be SAVED. For it is with your heart that you believe and are JUSTIFIED, and it is with your mouth that you confess and are SAVED. Jesus, since You made it possible for me to do this, I am now forgiven, born again, a Christian, a child of God, a member of God’s family, and a citizen in God’s eternal Kingdom. Make it clear to me that this is what opened the door to ALL the great things of God! NOW, empower me to do what it takes to GET ALL the great things of God.

1 John 1:7 (NIV) But if we walk in the light, as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, His Son, purifies us from ALL sin. Jesus, You are now doing what it takes to empower me to walk in the light, as You are in the light. Teach me that, that means I am closing the three doors that my body, the world, and the devil were using to put darkness inside me.

Rom 12:1-2 (NIV) Therefore, I urge you, brothers, in view of God's mercy, to offer your BODIES as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God--this is your spiritual act of worship. Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this WORLD, but be transformed by the renewing of your MIND. Then you will be able to test and approve what GOD’S WILL is--His good, pleasing and perfect will. Jesus, help me be ready to take four steps into closing all three doors. Help me see that as long as I continue this process for the rest of my life, I will walk in the light, as You are in the light.

Jesus, help me with these four major steps that are being laid out for me:

1. Jesus, teach me how to offer my BODY as a living sacrifice.


2. Teach me how to not conform any longer to the pattern of this WORLD.


3. Teach me how to be transformed by the renewing of my MIND.


4. Teach me how to be able to test and approve what GOD’S WILL is.
