Ten Attitudes of Victorious Living

When we finally get clean and sober, we must learn to live a new life with a new character. When we become new creations in Christ, we must put on His spiritual life and put off the old, worldly, prideful, selfish, lustful nature. In His Sermon on the Mount (Matthew 5, 6 and 7), Jesus describes the attitudes of His followers. "The Most Excellent Way" ministry is centered on God's Word, and Christ's Beatitudes are our foundation for change.









"Let this mind be in you which
was also in Christ Jesus."
Philippians 2:5 NKJV




1 . . . Humility
I admit I am powerless over the affects of drugs
and alcohol, and self-centered behavior
- my life is unmanageable.
Jesus said: "Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs
is the kingdom of heaven." Matthew 5:3 NKJV


2 . . . Repentance
I believe Jesus Christ can and will
create in me a new way of life.
Jesus said: "Blessed are those who mourn, for
they shall be comforted." Matthew 5:4 NKJV


3 . . . Submissiveness
I give my will and my life to Jesus Christ.
Jesus said: "Blessed are the meek, for they
shall inherit the earth." Matthew 5:5 NKJV


4 . . . Honesty
I honestly examine myself in the light of God's Word.
Jesus said: "Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for
righteousness, for they shall be filled." Matthew 5:6 NKJV


5 . . . Mercy
I humbly ask God's forgiveness for my sinful past.
I am able to forgive those who have hurt me.
Jesus said: "Blessed are the merciful, for they
shall obtain mercy." Matthew 5:7 NKJV


6 . . . Obedience
I desire to live under the guidance of
God's Holy Spirit - day by day.
Jesus said: "Blessed are the pure in heart,
for they shall see God." Matthew 5:8 NKJV


7 . . . Reconciliation
I ask forgiveness from God and those I have
hurt or dealt with unfairly.
Jesus said: "Blessed are the peacemakers, for they
shall be called sons of God." Matthew 5:9 NKJV


8 . . . Faith
I trust in the power of Jesus Christ
when I face hardship and trials.
Jesus said: "Blessed are those who are
persecuted for righteousness' sake, For theirs is
the kingdom of heaven." Matthew 5:10 NKJV


9 . . . Perseverance
I stand firm in my faith that Jesus is in control of all things.
Jesus said: "Blessed are you when they revile and persecute
you, and say all kinds of evil against you falsely for My sake.
Rejoice and be exceedingly glad, for great is your reward
in heaven, for so they persecuted the prophets who
were before you." Matthew 5:11-12 NKJV


10 . . . Loving Servant
As a new creation in Christ, I share with others the Good
News of a risen Savior who makes His people whole.
Jesus said: "You are the salt of the earth; . . . You are
the light of the world . . . Let your light so shine before
men, that they may see your good works and glorify
your Father in heaven." Matthew 5:13-16 NKJV




Jesus said: "But seek first the kingdom
of God and His righteousness,
and all these things shall be added to you."
Matthew 6:33 NKJV
