8-8-2017. . . .POWER WITHIN!
"Do you want more and more of God's kindness and peace? Then learn to know him better and better. For as you know him better, he will give you, through his great power, everything you need for living a truly good life: he even shares his own glory and his own goodness with us! And by that same mighty power he has given us all the other rich and wonderful blessings he promised; for instance, the promise to save us from the lust and rottenness all around us, and to give us his own character." (2 Peter 1:2-4 TLB)
Don't underestimate lust! It is a powerful thing and because it comes from our own inner desires, it can be difficult to "Just say no" to ourselves! Rely on the mighty transforming power Christ has given us. This power will produce a "Christ-likenss" within us that will radiate on the outside of us for all the world to behold!
Prayer: Lord, thank you for the power you have given us to be just like you. Help us to always yield to that transforming power and not revert back to our old nature. Amen.
Gal 5:16. . . .I advise you to obey only the Holy Spirit's instructions. He will tell you where to go and what to do, and then you won't always be doing the wrong things your evil nature wants you to. TLB
