New Blog Post: ‘Come Into God’s House and Meet with Him in Prayer’ – ‘Life In The Spirit‘

For the power of the life-giving Spirit—and this power is mine through Christ Jesus—has freed me from the vicious circle of sin and death. We aren’t saved from sin’s grasp by knowing the commandments of God because we can’t and don’t keep them, but God put into effect a different plan to save us. He sent his own Son in a human body like ours—except that ours are sinful—and destroyed sin’s control over us by giving himself as a sacrifice for our sins. (Romans 8:2-3 TLB)

The Holy Spirit of God, has given me new life through Jesus Christ. He has set me free from all my sin and death. God has set us free by sending His own Son to be like sinners and be a sacrifice for our sin. God used Christ’s body to condemn sin. He did this, so that we would do what the Law commands by obeying the Spirit instead of our own desires. It’s His strength and power that gives us the strength to overcome our sinful nature and desires. People who are ruled by their desires think only of themselves. Everyone who is ruled by the Holy Spirit, will keep their focus on God and heaven shows us that our personal desires are not our most important thoughts. If we focus on spiritual goals such as being loving, kind and patient. This brings us freedom in our minds that is peace.

                                                              Prayer

Heavenly Father, thank You for sending Your precious Son, Jesus Christ; to be a sacrifice for my sin. Thank You for sending the Holy Spirit of God to dwell within me and help me to overcome my sinful nature and desires. I ask the Holy Spirit of God to guide and lead me into His perfect will, and I ask Him to give me the strength to overcome all my evil desires. Amen.
