Welcome to iJourney! The purpose of iJourney is to assist in your daily walk with Jesus. Every believer has an internal desire to grow in Christ. In reality though, most of us struggle with our daily walk. I have always said that the most difficult, yet delightful part about the Christian life is that it’s so daily. Most Christians struggle with the “daily-ness” of Christianity, not because they don’t want to walk with Jesus, but because they don’t know where to start.

iJourney is designed to be your launching pad into an incredible journey with Jesus! To help you better hear the Spirit speak into your daily life, iJourney consists of four basic sections.

You will begin with Preparation. Just as the farmer must first till the soil before sowing the seed, the Lord must first prepare the heart of the believer before sowing the seed of His Word. The section titled Preparing My Heart is included to help in this preparation.

Next, is Revelation (One Year Daily Bible Readings). One of the greatest struggles for Christians today is hearing from God. We live in an information culture. As a result, many Christians study the Bible for information rather than allowing the Bible to speak to them in revelation. The word revelation means to unveil. Jesus said that the Holy Spirit will guide us into all truth (John 16:13). So as you read God’s Word daily, ask the Spirit to speak to your heart.

The third section is Application. This is where you will ask the question “So what?”. What is the Spirit revealing that applies to your life? In the section My iJourney Notes, write down how the truths revealed through your reading and prayer time applies to the practical areas of your life.

The final section is Transformation. The intention of this section is to help you with the question “Now what?”. This section includes memory verses for the month as well as a page titled Transforming My Prayer Life. Through memorizing Scripture and enhancing your prayer life, you will begin to witness a spiritual transformation (Romans 12:2a).

Now it’s time to begin the journey! Be blessed!

MAY 9 - MAY 151 Samuel 16:7 (ESV) But the LORD said to Samuel, “Do not look on his appearance or on the height of his stature, because I have rejected him. For the LORD sees not as man sees: man looks on the outward appearance, but the LORD looks on the heart.”

TransformationTransforming My Prayer Life

SURRENDER Philippians 1:21 (ESV) For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain. Begin each morning by surrendering your life to Jesus. Pray: Lord, because I have awakened to another sunrise, I give this day to you. Because I am breathing oxygen which you have supplied, I give you my life today. I put off the old man with his deceitful lusts and self-centered desires. I lay my life down on the altar of surrender and humbly proclaim, FOR ME TO LIVE IS CHRIST TODAY! Luke 9:23-24; Romans12:1; Galatians 2:20; Ephesians 4:17-24

SUIT UPPhilippians 1:21 (ESV) For to me to live is Christ...

Next, you must put on the Lord Jesus. Pray: Today I put on the Lord Jesus as my armor of light. I put on the belt of truth and the breastplate of righteousness. I put on the shoes of peace and the helmet of salvation. I take up the shield of faith to quench all the fiery darts of the enemy, and I take up the sword of the Spirit which is the Word of God. Led by the Spirit, I will pray in the Spirit through each and every obstacle and opportunity throughout the day. I am well aware that the enemy is lurking and scheming against me today. I cannot win the victory on my own, but I rely upon the victory Jesus won on the cross and declared in His resurrection.

Romans 16:20; Ephesians 6:10-18; 1 Peter 5:8-9

SERVEPhilippians 1:22 (ESV) If I am to live in the flesh, that means fruitful labor for me. Yet which I shall choose I cannot tell. Pray: Lord, I choose to follow You as You advance your Kingdom of Love. Open my eyes to see what you are doing in the lives of people in order that I may serve you as your minister of love to them (John 5:19). Open my ears to hear what your Spirit is saying ( Revelation 2:7a) so that I may know your mind and may accomplish your will today (Philippians 2:13).

Matthew 20:26-28; John 12:26; Ephesians 2:10; Philippians 2:5

MAY 2 - MAY 8John 5:24 (NLT)I tell you the truth, those who listen to my message and believe in God who sent me have eternal life. They will never be condemned for their sins, but they have already passed from death into life.

MAY 9 - MAY 15John 10:27-28 (NLT)My sheep listen to my voice; I know them, and they follow me. I give them eternal life, and they will never perish. No one can snatch them away from me,

MAY 16 - MAY 221 Samuel 16:7 (NLT) But the Lord said to Samuel, “Don’t judge by his appearance or height, for I have rejected him. The Lord doesn’t see things the way you see them. People judge by outward appearance, but the Lord looks at the heart.”

MAY 23 - MAY 29John 14:12-14 (NLT)I tell you the truth, anyone who believes in me will do the same works I have done, and even greater works, because I am going to be with the Father. You can ask for anything in my name, and I will do it, so that the Son can bring glory to the Father. Yes, ask me for anything in my name, and I will do it!
