Take on promises
Verse of the day: Blessed are those who have a pure heart, for they shall see God (Matthew 5. 8).
- When does Paul say to mortify the actions of the body.
- Through the Spirit?(Romans 8.
- 13).
- I believe it means that we must use the only weapon in the armor of the Spirit used to kill.
- Sword.
- Which is the word of God (Ephesians 6.
- 17).
Therefore, when the body is about to be pushed into sinful action out of fear or desire, we must take the sword of the Spirit and kill that fear and desire. In my experience, this mainly means cutting the root of the promise of sin by the power of a higher promise.
So, for example, when I begin to desire illicit sexual pleasure, the sword that often cuts the root of this promised pleasure is: “Blessed are pure hearts, for they shall see God” (Matthew 5. 8). I remember the pleasures I tasted as I looked at God more clearly with pure conscience; and I remember the brevity, superficiality, and oppressive bitterness of the pleasures of sin, and with that, God killed the conquering power of sin.
Having promises with you that are appropriate for the temptation of the moment is the key to an effective war against sin.
However, there are times when we do not have a perfectly adequate word of God in our minds and there is no time to search the Bible for a tailor-made promise, so we all need a small arsenal of general promises ready to be fulfilled. it is always used that fear or desire threaten to deceive us.
Constantly increase your arsenal of promises. But never lose sight of those precious promises that God has blessed in your life. Do both. Always be prepared with the old man. And every morning, find a new one to meet you during the day.
