Topic:Let Us Make Our Hearts A Hard Disk To Store Thy Powerful Word So That No Virus Of Sin Can Penetrate Into Our Hearts.
We must all meet temptations and we cannot escape. And the tempter comes so suddenly and so insidiously in such a subtle way, we cannot instantly repel his assault, unless we are well prepared.
The great apostle Paul who so confidently encouraged the church in Corinth says in 1 Corint. 11:1, "imitate me, just as I also imitate Christ."
Then we read in Romans 7:14 and 20 apostle Paul saying, "What I am not supposed to do, I do. But what I am supposed to do, I do not do. Now, if I do what Im not supposed to do, it's no longer I who do it, but sin that dwells in me."
Adversary makes every to see that we are deeply rooted and addicted to sin as slaves.. Is there a way out?
How can we keep on doing things which are not good and harmful - And keep spoiling our name and testimony? Only one way to avoid..
There is nothing like texts and scriptures hidden in not just in our minds but hidden and stored in our hearts like hard disk that drives satan and sin away. We know, even devil knows the scriptures. Word of God is the tool.....
The only way we can avoid being slaves of habitual sins and avoid getting addicted to certain sins is - I reiterate once again to make the Word of God our Lifeline, our Compass, our guide by our daily study and meditation of the Word, storing in our memory, its precious texts, it's counsels, it's promises, and its warnings. And ofcourse, prayer and having fellowship with blessed children of God.
By doing so, we can be crucified with Christ our sins,
- burial of our carnal sinful nature and keep experiencing the resurrection of ourselves with Christ against our old carnal nature with a divine nature.
Then we shall never be suprised, unprepared or defenceless, but for every temptation, we shall have a dart ready to draw out and hurl at our adversary.
Have a blessed and joyful new week!๐๐น๐
