STEP ONE

I know nothing good lives in me, that is, in my sinful nature. For I have
the desire to do
what is good, but I cannot carry it out. Rom. 7:17

STEP TWO

For it is God who works in you to will and to act according to His good
purpose. Phil.
2:13

STEP THREE

Therefore, I urge you, brethren, in view of God’s mercy, to offer your
bodies as living
sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God-which is your spiritual worship. Rom.
12:1

STEP FOUR

Let us examine our ways and test them, and let us return to the Lord. Lam.
3:40

STEP FIVE

If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our
sins and purify us from
all unrighteousness. 1 John 1:9

STEP SIX

Whoever tries to keep his life will lose it, and whoever loses his life
will preserve it. Luke.
17:33

STEP SEVEN

Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door
will be opened
to you. For everyone who asks receives; he who seeks finds; and to him who
knocks, the
door will be opened. Matt. 7:7-8

STEP EIGHT

Therefore, if you are offering your gift at the altar and there remember
that your brother
has something against you, leave your gift there in front of the altar.
First go and be
reconciled to your brother; then come and offer your gift. Matt. 5:23-24

STEP NINE

Fools mock at making amends for sin, but goodwill is found among the
upright. Each
heart knows its own bitterness, and no one else can share its joy. The
house of the wicked
will be destroyed, but the tent of the upright will flourish. There is a
way that seems right
to a man, but in the end it leads to death. Proverbs 14:9-12

STEP TEN

Do not repay anyone evil for evil. Be careful to do what is right in the
eyes of everybody.
If it is possible, as far as it depends on you, live at peace with
everyone. Do not take
revenge, my friends, but leave room for God’s wrath, for it is written: “It
is mine to
avenge; I will repay,” says the Lord. Romans 12:17

STEP ELEVEN

Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly as you teach and admonish one
another with all
wisdom, and as you sing psalms, hymns and spiritual songs with gratitude in
Your hearts
to God. And whatever you do, whether in word or deed, do it all in the name
of the Lord
Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through Him. Colossians 3:15-17
Let the words of my mouth, and the meditations of my heart be acceptable in
thy sight, O
Lord, my strength and my redeemer. Psalms 19:14

STEP TWELVE

Brethren, if a man is overtaken in any trespass, you who are spiritual
should restore him in
a spirit of gentleness. Look to yourself, lest you too be tempted.
Galatians 6:1
2Ti 2:2 The things which you have heard from me in the presence of many witnesses, entrust these to faithful men who will be able to teach others also.
