Good morning today is the 12th day of the Daniel Fast and our focus is SELF-CONTROL
As Christians we should never have the testimony ” the devil made me do it”. We know right from wrong. We know how to control our own behavior. The more we spend time with God by being in the Word, by praying and fasting; the easier it is for us to want to do right and please the Lord. Stop letting sin have control in your life. We can control our mouths by thinking before we speak. We can control this flesh by putting it under the subjection of God. If we’re single, no sex with anyone. If we’re married, only sex with our spouse. Living saved isn’t hard. We just make excuses to justify our sins and to make ourselves feel good; but if we sow to flesh then we will reap of the flesh, if we sow to the spirit then we will reap of the spirit.
2 Timothy 3:1-5 But mark this: There will be terrible times in the last days. People will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boastful, proud, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, without love, unforgiving, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not lovers of the good, treacherous, rash, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God— having a form of godliness but denying its power. Have nothing to do with such people.
Be blessed and continue to be a blessing
Pastor Brown
