Bible Verse of The Day – 4-27-23

John 8:11 (NKJV) 11 She said, “No one, Lord.” And Jesus said to her, “Neither do I condemn you; go and sin no more.”

While in prayer this morning, I had a vision.

A man was on a surgical table. He was under anesthesia. He was out cold. But yet he suddenly sat up on the table and yelled, “stop!”.

Even though he was under the influence of the anesthesia, he pushed through the effects of it and yelled out.

The anesthesia in this vision is symbolic of sin; the sins that we can fall under the influence of at times.

This shows us that even if we have fallen prey to sin, and it has us under its influence, we must do whatever is necessary to fight it.

You see, no matter how far into sin we are, our conscience or our will can override it and choose to stop.

The man on the operating table was out, but he woke up enough to yell, “stop”. We too must wake up and take action.

We have to be aware of our sin, and we have to be the ones to stop it. No one else can do it for us. It  takes resistance and strength to stop it. And God will help us with both.

Who’s in trouble today? How deep are we under the influence of our sin? No matter the depth, resist it. Sit up and stop it.

Go, and sin no more. Amen.

Bible Verse of The Day – 6-19-19

Romans 7:20 (NKJV) 20 Now if I do what I will not to do, it is no longer I who do it, but sin that dwells in me.

We all wrestle with making the right choices. It’s part of human nature. The Bible calls it “the sin nature” or “the sinful nature”, depending on which translation you read.

Basically, this means that it is in our human nature to sin. This is the root of the vast majority of the problems that plague humanity as a whole.

Many may try to blame it on specific things that ignore the sinful nature of man. But in the end, it all boils down to the fact that our human nature enjoys sin.

Many people actually delight in sin. Some grow to love certain sins to the point where it destroys them, emotionally, spiritually and physically.

So, what do we do about this? Are we powerless, destined to “sin ourselves to death”?

Not at all. God has provided a way for us to break free from this sinful nature that tries so desperately to control and destroy us.

How?

By deliverance through Jesus Christ!

Romans 7:25 (NKJV) 25 I thank God—through Jesus Christ our Lord!…

God is merciful and He doesn’t want to see a single person perish at the hands of sin. So, He provided a way of deliverance through the blood of Christ and the power of the Holy Spirit.

It’s up to us to reach a point where we want to be set free, pushing back the desire to please ourselves and, instead, learn to live to please God.

It’s not always easy. In fact, sometimes it can be downright difficult, especially if we love the sin.

But with God, nothing is impossible if we will submit ourselves to Him and surrender our will.

There is freedom waiting for us. We just have to reach out and grab hold of it, in Jesus’ name.

Bible Verse of The Day – 11-5-18

Romans 6:22 (NKJV) 22 But now having been set free from sin, and having become slaves of God, you have your fruit to holiness, and the end, everlasting life.

Fruit to holiness and everlasting life are beautiful gifts from God.

As we live the life He has for us, and we fight off the pressure of sin that tries to enslave us, we will walk in such beauty.

Life will always have its ugly struggles in one form or another. But we need to know and understand that no matter what comes against us, we now have the strength to fight back and beat it. God’s strength takes us above and beyond what we ever thought we could do.

No longer are we slaves to unrighteousness, but to God. He is the One we obey. He is the One who leads us… not temptation. We can beat temptation when we obey God’s voice.

In the heat of the moment, remember to push away sin and listen for the Holy Spirit. If we are paying attention and really want the help, He will help us and turn that situation around with His wisdom.

Bible Verse of The Day – 3-14-16

Proverbs 26:11 (NKJV) 11 As a dog returns to his own vomit, So a fool repeats his folly.

Have you ever wondered why some people just can’t seem to break free from their bad habits or their sin?

This happens because people love what they’re doing. Yes, there are addictions and there are demonic influences that play a role in this. But when a person loves their sin, they will be forever bound by it.

And so we see the cycle of a person making an effort to come clean and change their ways, but they continually fall back into it.

It could be alcohol addiction. It could be drugs. It could be porn. It could be overeating. It could be any number of things that are harmful to us or others.

This happens a lot. We can probably all attest to seeing this happen in the life of a person we know. Maybe we can even say that this has happened, or is happening to us, in certain areas of our lives.

When push comes to shove, it is our love for that particular sin that drives us. It draws us back to it, over and over again.

Until we hate the sin, we will never be able to walk away from it. Until we get so mad at the sin, and our repeated lack of control over it, that we absolutely want to see change, we will never change.

This is the truth when it comes to any kind of bad habit, addiction or destructive behavior. We have to reach a point where we despise the sin and what it does to us. Then, and only then, will we truly want to see change and do what is needed to make it happen.

God wants to help us break free. He wants us to live a life of victory. He wants to give us the help that we need to come clean once and for all.

It’s up to us to do whatever is necessary to let Him help. And sometimes this requires drastic measures on our part.

Many times it means a complete change in our lifestyle. Sometimes it means walking away from our “friends”. Sometimes it means a drastic change in our daily habits and routines. No matter what it is, we have to WANT it badly enough to go after it with everything in us, surrendering to God and giving Him complete control of our lives.

If you’re struggling and wrestling with sin in your life, we urge you today to take whatever action is necessary to get free. Go to God. Repent before Him. Cry out to Him and ask Him to give you the courage to face your sin and the strength to overcome it, in the name of Jesus.

It’s never too late. Don’t put it off any longer. Today is your day.

2 Corinthians 6:2 (NKJV) 2 For He says: “In an acceptable time I have heard you, And in the day of salvation I have helped you.” Behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation.
