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."

Philippians 4:19 - "But my God shall supply all your need according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus." Let's not forget that our God gives us everything we have. Do we really take the time to thank Him and do His blessings cause us to give more back to Him? Daily remember how great He is and understand how much we need Him. - Jason Brothers

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

Isaiah 1:18 - “Come now, and let us reason together, saith the LORD: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool.”With the recent snow storm, I was reminded of this verse. We have much to be thankful for. - Clifford Myers

Isaiah 51:3 ends with "...joy and gladness shall be found therein, thanksgiving and the voice of melody." Joy. Gladness. Thankfulness. So happy that you're singing. Is that you? Me? Too often I am grouchy, annoyed, bothered by the nuisances and inconveniences of life. Not good. Correct my focus, Lord Jesus, so I am exhibiting the joy and gladness that your great love gives me! - Daniel Holser

Matthew 7:11 - "If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children, how much more shall your Father which is in Heaven give good things to them that ask Him?" Just as we had great excitement giving our children their gifts, think of the God of all creation choosing us individually to bless each day. He not only keeps his promise to meet our needs, but He also gives us blessings each day. Let's remind Him daily how thankful we are by our words and the way we live." Jason Myers

Joshua 8:34 - "And afterward he read all the words of the law, the blessings and cursings, according to all that is written in the book of the law." - Israel has just been given a great victory after their first defeat at Ai. Joshua knew that right after thanking God for the victory he needed to remind the people it was not they who had won the battle. As we pray and ask for victories, let's not just thank God for that "big win" but also thank Him for who He is. Let's remember both His goodness and His demand for righteousness. - Matt Stephens

I Thessalonians 5:17 - "Let the elders that rule well be counted worthy of double honour, especially they who labour in the word and doctrine."
One of the things we take for granted is that we have a man of God here who works extremely hard at helping us fulfill God's will for our lives. Let's tell the Lord how thankful we are for our pastor. Let's show our pastor how thankful we are by putting into practice the things he gives us from God's Word. - Jason Myers

Psalm 100:4 - "Enter into His gates with thanksgiving, and into His courts with praise: be thankful unto Him, and bless His name." - I would encourage everyone to read this short psalm today as we remember His great blessing and provision. Sunday Evening was such a blessing seeing how God has been good to us this year. Let's not just remember God's goodness, but share it with others today. - Matt Stephens

Psalm 65:2,4 - O thou that hearest prayer, unto thee shall all flesh come. All the earth shall worship thee, and shall sing unto thee; they shall sing to thy name. Selah." These are some awesome facts about what is to come, that are stated as exactly that in Psalms, facts. There is no question that every man on this earth will sing the praise and glory of His name. I am so thankful that as Christians, we get to sing praise from grateful hearts and not by force as many will before they are cast into hell. Let's not forget to sing those praises for all His goodness in this busy time of the year. - Brian Boots

Psalm 145: 4 - "One generation shall praise thy works to another, and shall declare thy mighty acts." By making our family aware of God's blessings and goodness to us, we increase both theirs and our faith and thankfulness so they as the next generation will desire to do the same. - Clifford Myers.
