God is calling Christian men everywhere to man up. The purpose of this blog is three-fold. Man up because the world needs men who will stand for righteousness. Man up because that is the direction we want to go in our spiritual lives. Man up because each man will be taking a turn providing an encouraging verse to the others (next man up). I pray it accomplishes its purposes. Jeremiah 29:13 - "And ye shall seek me, and find me, when ye shall search for me with all your heart."

Romans 1:21 - "Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened." - This verse and the ones following show the downfall of mankind. It's starts by not glorifying and thanking the God everyone knows exists (v20). A rejection of God and His truth has lead America to where she is now. Idolatry and sexual perversions are two of the symptoms these verses mention that are consuming our land. Pray that we as Christian men would glorify and thank God for who He is. If we fail to live for Him His Word warns in Romans Ch 2, that judgment will follow. - Matt Stephens

I Corinthians 15:19 - "If in this life only we have hope in Christ, we are of all men most miserable." Romans 8:11 - "But if the Spirit of Him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, He that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by the Spirit that dwelleth in you." Thank God today and every day that Jesus rose from the grave. Without that, nothing in this life would be meaningful. - Jason Myers

Romans 14:12 - "So then every one of us shall give account of himself to God." I was listening to some coworkers talk at work this week who are unsaved. They were talking about the hypocrisy they have seen in supposed Christians they have been in contact with. Backstabbing, cursing, unwilling to help others in need, etc. It made me listen and wonder about those "Christians" and then examine myself. If I am not leading others to Christ I am leading them from him. Even as a Christian by not living for Christ in EVERYTHING I will lead people away from Jesus because they will have no reason to follow Him. How about you? Will others see Christ in you, I pray it is so! - Matt Stephens

Romans 14:7 - "For none of us liveth to himself, and no man dieth to himself."
Remember that every thing that we think, say, or do, we are going to be held accountable for. We are also ambassadors for Christ, so our life will either help bring others to Christ, or it will turn them away from Him. - Jason Myers

Romans 5:3,4 - "And not only so, but we glory in tribulations also: knowing that tribulation worketh patience; and patience, experience and experience, hope..." We want the patience of Job but we don't want the tribulations...we gain patience, experience, and hope when we go through tough times. So thank God for them! - Wes Smith

Romans 11:33 - "O the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and knowledge of God! how unsearchable are his judgments, and his ways past finding out!" We have an amazing God! Let's take advantage of His wisdom by asking for it this year. - John Mark Brothers

Romans 8:18 - “For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us." With today being the fresh start, and we remember all that happened last year, remember what is waiting for us when we get to Heaven and don't forget to keep looking up. "Even so, come, Lord Jesus." May that be our families' prayer for this new year. -Joshua Gross

Romans 4:7,8 - "...Blessed are they whose iniquities are forgiven, and whose sins are covered. Blessed is the man to whom the Lord will not impute sin." Because of salvation, to have the Lord not hold us to the sins in our lives is immeasurable. To share this blessing with others is priceless. - Phil Dann

Romans 8:28 - "And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God..." This is easy to read but hard to live when you are in the valley. - Wes Smith
