Christian Life Rules. Matthew 20:28 If Leroy Jethro Gibbs was writing out Christians rules for Life.Similar to how Jethro Gibbs has his famous rules in NCIS—they would likely be grounded in biblical principles, guiding you to live by faith and not by sight .1.I put God first in every decision.I begin each day by seeking His guidance and asking, “Is this in line with His will?” (Matthew 6:33).
2.I choose prayer over worry.When life feels overwhelming, I take a moment to pray, trusting that God listens and provides peace (Philippians 4:6-7).3.I commit to daily Bible reading.I set aside time to immerse myself in God’s Word, allowing Scripture to direct my steps (Joshua 1:8).4.I walk by faith, not by sight.Even when I don’t see the full picture, I trust in God’s plan for my life (2 Corinthians 5:7).5.I strive to love others as Christ loves me.In every interaction, I aim to reflect Jesus’ compassion and grace (John 13:34-35).6.I speak truth with grace and kindness.I hold honesty as a core value, but I balance it with empathy and love (Ephesians 4:15).7.I practice forgiveness daily.I remind myself that forgiving others frees my heart and reflects the forgiveness God has shown me (Matthew 6:14-15).8.I keep my word and live with integrity.I understand that my promises matter; my “yes” is a reflection of my commitment to God and others (Proverbs 10:9).9.I remain humble in every circumstance.I remember that pride can lead me astray, so I choose humility and a servant’s heart (Proverbs 16:18).10.I don’t just hear the Word—I live it.I commit to putting my faith into action, knowing that real change comes from living what I believe (James 1:22).”N.C.I.S. Never Compromise In Service”
