MY SINFUL NATURE!

” IN MY MIND I REALLY WANT TO OBEY GOD’S LAW, BUT BECAUSE OF MY SINFUL NATURE I AM A SLAVE TO SIN.” ROMANS 7:25

God’s Holy Word tells us that we are all sinners. We all know that because Adam and Eve became sinners that we are all born into sin. However, God provided us a Savior in Jesus Christ. All we have to do is truly believe and confess that Jesus is our Lord and that he died for our sins. Before we know Christ, sin rules our lives. We become dependent upon ourselves and other sinful gods to provide for our everyday needs. When we do accept Christ as our Lord and Savior, sin doesn’t just disappear. It seems to raise its ugly head more often than not. We must be able to overcome our nature of sin. Our way of life must change, and our thoughts must change. This is not an easy process because we have spent a good portion of our lives living outside of the way our Lord wants us to live. We must develop new life styles. We can only do that with the help of our God in heaven. Our faith must be strong, and we must obtain the strength to overcome moments of sin. Our Lord provides us with the strength, the patience, the wisdom and the knowledge we need to be overcomers. All we have to do is ask and we will receive. We need to continue to pray and converse with our Lord. Remember, we can do all things through Christ! PRAISE THE LORD IN ALL SITUATIONS!
