God’s love is unfailing. He will never abandon you. God’s love is shown to you “God sent His only begotten Son into the world so you might live eternally with Him” (1 John 4:9). This is amazing love. You didn’t earn it and you don’t deserve it. But it is yours by accepting Jesus Christ as your Savior. God’s unfailing love continues into eternity. We serve God because we love Him. This is our motivational virtue in life. “For this is the love of God that we keep His mandates and His mandates are not hard” (1 John 5:3). Our faithfulness is the demonstration of our love for Him.

“God is love” (1 John 4:8).  The only way that you become righteous and acceptable to God is through Jesus Christ. “In this was manifested the love God toward us that God sent His only begotten Son into the world so that we might live eternally through Him” (1 John 4:9). At the moment of salvation, you are given God’s righteousness. “The eyes of the Lord are on those who fear Him and on those whose confidence is in His unfailing love” (Ps 33:18). It’s very easy to get emotional when talking about God and God’s love but the Christian life isn’t lived on emotions. It is lived in the mind. Self-control is critical in the battle of mind over emotions. “Patience is better than power and controlling your emotions better than capturing a city” (Prov 16:32).

There is a battle going on: “The flesh wars against the Spirit and the Spirit wars against the flesh” (Gal 5:16). Your volition will respond to your thoughts or your emotion. The key is to be controlled by your thoughts. Acquiring the mind of Christ will give you the divine viewpoint and discernment you need to protect your thoughts. “Put on the armor of God so you can stand against the strategy of the devil” (Eph 6:11). Satan seeks to lead your mind astray and plant desires in your thoughts. “There is no truth in him” (John 8:44). Scripture is your ally. “Submit yourself to God and resist the devil and he will flee from you” (James 4:7). Recognize his schemes because he will reuse them. Don’t let Satan and his system outwit you.

The objective of your spiritual life is to find your personal sense of destiny, live it, and use it to glorify God. “I delight to do Your will O my God” (Ps 40:8). Your personal sense of destiny is a door. Go through the door, leave your personal agenda behind, and get into God’s protocol plan for your life so that you enjoy the happiness and fulfillment He designed for you. Make time for learning God’s Word on a daily basis. God has a viewpoint will (what He wants you to think), an operational will (what He wants you to do), and a geographic will (where He wants you to be). Jesus told the disciples and you, “I am about to leave … the Holy Spirit is going to come and He will guide you into all truth” (John 16:7-13).

The Bible mandates you to study, grow, learn God’s plan, apply it, and stay out of sin. There is a door to doom called the sin unto death. It comes as a result of a lifestyle of sin and prolonged carnality. It is the maximum divine discipline. God uses divine discipline to get your attention before entering this door. “For whom the Lord loves He punishes, and He scourges with a whip every son that He receives” (Her 12:5-6). Taking communion in a perpetual state of carnality is another way to get under the sin unto death (1 Cor 11:27-31). You don’t lose your salvation. Once saved, always saved. But you will likely suffer a miserable death, and it implies loss of rewards and blessings in eternity. Do not play games with God. Admit your sin, use 1 John 1:9 rebound, before it is too late.

Chaos creates opportunity. You can use your spiritual life to relax. “You will keep in perfect peace those whose minds are steadfast [on God] because they trust in You” (Is 26:3). The spiritual life can give you this peace. It’s about staying filled with the Holy Spirit and using the divine assets you have, including the Bible and God’s 10 problem-solving devices. How you orient to the chaos in your life will determine your effect on others and the impact you’ll have on the devil’s world.

You must learn to control your sinful nature, or it will control you. One of the greatest tragic flaws in life is the failure to see who you are. Self-centered arrogance is a door to doom. Four attitudes that open the door because of selfish ambition are wrong thinking, wrong motivation, wrong decisions, and wrong actions. “Do not merely look out for your interests, but also for the interest of others” (Phil 2:3-4). Lack of self-control is another door—the law of volitional responsibility. God holds you accountable for your decisions. You have entered a door to doom if you cause other believers to stumble in their faith. “It is inevitable that stumbling blocks come, but woe to him through whom they come” (Luke 17:1).

Jesus Christ redeemed us from the slave market of sin. Our debt to God has been paid in full, and we are now free of the penalty of death and the power of sin. “For by grace are you saved through faith” (Eph 2:8-9). Allowing sin to control your life and making bad decisions is a door to doom. “Thank God for His grace that gives us victory over sin and the victory over death in Christ Jesus our Lord” (1 Col 15:57). Don’t hide anything from God - He sees. “If you do not do what is right, sin is crouching at the door, and it desires to dominate it. You must subdue it” (Gen 4:7). You subdue sin using problem-solving devices number one (Rebound) and number two (Filling of the Holy Spirit).

Your priority is to feed your soul with the Word of God. If you put this off, you are a spiritual sluggard. “Go to the ant, you sluggard. Observe her ways and be wise” (Prov 6:6-11). Putting your eyes on anyone but the Lord Jesus Christ can lead you through a door to doom. “Focus on Him who for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross” (Heb 12:2). Lack of self-control and not taking responsibility for your decisions will also lead to doom and gloom. If you are a stumbling block to other Christians, you enter divine discipline. “It’s inevitable that stumbling blocks come, but woe to him through whom they come” (Luke 17:1). You must know Scripture. This is where you get your strength— from using His Word under the power of the filling of the Holy Spirit.

You have volition and a sin nature, which means you have the ability to destroy yourself. We have three enemies: the world, the flesh, and the devil. Satan wants to distract you, discourage you, and defeat you. “Satan goes around like a roaring lion seeking whom he can devour” (1 Pet 5:8). You can become a spiritual failure when you lack self-control. You must control your volition and your decisions. You do this by using God's 10 problem-solving devices.” Be not deceived God will not be mocked. Whatever a man sows, he will also reap” (Gal 6:7).
