God’s Word for Today - 14 Aug 2024
Romans 6:19 KJV — I speak after the manner of men because of the infirmity of your flesh: for as ye have yielded your members servants to uncleanness and to iniquity unto iniquity; even so now yield your members servants to righteousness unto holiness.
Reflection on God’s Word for Today - 14 Aug 2024
Before you took the step of faith to accept Christ’s free gift of salvation you were a slave to sin, revelling in behaviour and acts that God condemns and frowns upon. Your body was the devil’s playground because you yielded yourself to him and the pleasures he offered you to gratify yourself. You were God’s enemy, knowingly or unknowingly. Thankfully you accepted Christ as your Saviour, you must now let Him be your Lord by presenting your body to Him as a living sacrifice, letting Christ live through you. That’s your reasonable service to Jehovah in appreciation for justifying you and making you righteous in Christ by His grace. Henceforth purpose in your heart to shun every allure of the flesh and cling firmly onto Jesus and your life shall not be the same again.
Pray: Father in Heaven, give me the courage to say no to the sinful desires of the flesh and to yield completely to You my God. #Mok
