“If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.” (1John 1:9; BSB)
I hear it all the time when people refuse to let the sin issue go and try to frustrate your faith in God by holding your past against you.
When will you get it that if you are born again, you are a new creation. You have been given a new lease on life. Now you are righteous. (See 2Corinthians 5:17)
However, your new life needs a strong dosage of daily Bible reading for growth.
Therefore, “Like newborn babies, you must crave pure spiritual milk so that you will grow into a full experience of salvation. Cry out for this nourishment. (See 1 Peter 2:2)
Without daily Bible reading, your New born Spirit will be weak and the old sin-nature will dominate it.
In that weakened state, you become prone to curses, sicknesses, diseases, biological problems, satanic yokes, etc.
It is in your best interest to fortify yourself by what is known as Daily Christian Discipline which involves the following:
* Regular Prayers to God,
* Personal Bible study (you can subscribe to a free Daily Devotional or Bible Reading plan online- check out YouVersion, I’ve found them helpful)
* Fast intermittently- helps to develop self-control
* Fellowship with other Believers and
* Share your faith with others.- Simply tell them how you overcame
Your faith needs to grow or else you will become a casualty of spiritual warfare-demons will make your life a living hell here on earth.
Prayer:
Faithful God, thank you for giving me your Divine nature as well as everything I need for life and Godliness.
Forgive me for not believing your Word and allowing myself to follow the voice of the stranger.
I reaffirm my faith in You and now walk in righteousness, excellence, productivity, health and wisdom.
I have all I need in You for you are my sufficiency, in Jesus name mighty name.
Shalom from Hephzibah Christly #theSpiritualWarrior
