Power Against Sin

The more one envelops himself in the Word of God and in communication with Him through His Spirit, the more powerful against sin he becomes.

Many people have a genuine desire to serve God. Part of being a Christian is parting from sin. Too many times we find ourselves trying diligently by our own might to conquer our sin, whatever it may be. But what we need to do us focus on God to accomplish victory. Now, you may ask yourself, "Self, how to I do this?"  Well, we focus on our Savior in reading and studying his Word, praying, fasting, obeying His commandments, witnessing, helping others, loving others... Basically, by doing his will. 

When we turn from sin, we turn and run to God. The closer we get to God, the further we will be from sin! 

Make sense? Hope this helps!

We Run

 When were you saved? Examine yourself. If you are saved, great! If you suspect that you are not saved, get on your knees and let God save you.

 Remember that we are not going to change over night. It is a process that we go through (sanctification) and it takes time. We repent and the Holy Spirit works in us and guides us, molding us into a model of Jesus. We will sin, yes, but if we do, we will fall into sin as opposed to diving into it like before. We repent daily. If we fail, we get up, dust ourselves off and keep on going. 

Remember, we don't jump into sin anymore when we're saved. We don't plan it, checking to see if anyone's looking, indulging and enjoying it. We run from sin...as fast as we can. 

But where do we run to? We run to God. We run to his Word, the Bible. We run to fellowship with other Christians. We run and fall on our knees in prayer. We run to confess our wrongdoings to God.
