DEAL WITH IT!


8-10-2010. . . .DEAL WITH IT!

"But every man is tempted, when he is drawn away of his own lust, and enticed.  Then when lust hath conceived, it bringeth forth sin: and sin, when it is finished, bringeth forth death."  (James 1:14-15 KJV)  What lust draws you away to the place of enticement?  Have you dealt with  it or, are you in denial?  After all, as a believer, I don't have anything like that going on in my life!  Yeah, right!  The truth of the matter is we all have to deal with things that draw us away!  Just because its not ramped sexual temptations, drugs and alcohol does not mean you have nothing to be concern about.  What about overeating, overworking, television and host of things far to numerous to mention here.  It's time to deal with it before it deals with you!

Prayer: Lord, you are faithful.  Help us to deal with the lust in our lives so that we are not drawn away and lust is allow to conceive and thereby bring about sin!  Help us not to be in denial, but to deal with it!  Amen. 
2 Peter 1:2-4. . . . Grace and peace be multiplied unto you through the knowledge of God, and of Jesus our Lord,  According as his divine power hath given unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of him that hath called us to glory and virtue:  Whereby are given unto us exceeding great and precious promises: that by these ye might be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust.  KJV
