Today we’re digging into what it means to have sobriety, which in its purest definition means a sound and well-balanced mind. You see, sobriety actually comes from the Greek word “sophron,” which refers to an unhurried and calm mind; a mind that has self-control. That’s why sobriety is all about thinking and not drinking!

We’re also taking a closer look at the name of this podcast – Day One of Sobriety. If you’ve received salvation, you received the capacity for a sound mind on day 1 of salvation. So why, then, do you struggle with a messy mind? I’ve got the answer to that and more in today’s episode.

So if you’re ready to discover the power of your thoughts, and learn why taming them is the first step in gaining control and balance in your life, grab a notebook and pen, and let’s dive in.

Salvation Prayer & Information:

To accept Jesus as your savior, you pray a prayer out loud and believe with faith that you receive the gift of salvation. A salvation prayer includes the five steps below:

1. Acknowledge your sinfulness: Recognize that you have sinned and fallen short of God's standards. This can be expressed through the words "I know that I am a sinner".
2. Believe in Jesus' sacrifice: Express your belief that Jesus died on the cross to pay the penalty for your sins and that He rose from the dead.
3. Ask for forgiveness: Humbly ask God to forgive you of your sins.
4. Invite Jesus into your heart: Ask Jesus to come into your life, to be your Lord and Savior.
5. Make Jesus the Lord of your life: Commit to following Him and living according to His teachings.

Use your own words or read this prayer out loud:

"Lord Jesus, I know that I am a sinner, and I ask for Your forgiveness. I believe You died for my sins and rose from the dead. I turn from my sins and invite You to come into my heart and life. I want to trust and follow You as my Lord and Savior".
