Steps To Overcoming The Weight of Sin
The weight of guilt can weigh us down, if we do not act to remove it. When we say that I can’t go on, the burden causes us to say “God I cannot take it anymore.” Maybe the burden is sin, it is our charge to find out what it is, examine our lives and isolate the cause of sin, that has caused it to affect our lives. There are people that are in sin who are trapped by the sin. We must examine our lives to isolate the sin.
This weight can cause our lives to be turned upside down. The weight can cause our jobs to be unbearable. It can cause our family life to be unbearable. It can cause our relationships to be unbearable. The weight is a tool of satan, that has taken control of our lives. It rules our lives. We must deal with it; eradicate it ; cast it out of are lives.
The steps of Redemption…………….
1.Identify the sin- Know what you need to eradicate, isolate it
2.Have the right purpose in our lives; This means there needs to be a change in our lives. Are we living for Christ? Do we know Christ? We must know Christ and accept him into our Lives.
3.We must ask for forgiveness From Jesus and ask Him To come into our lives.
4.We must continually confess our Sin, though we are saved, we still will sin and after being saved we must continually confess that sin.
5.Spend time with the Lord each and everyday.
6.We must seek out spiritually minded people. Those who believe in Christ. If they are spiritually minded You know it by the way that they live their lives.
Yes God Is Real-Real In My Soul
God is Real. He’s real in my soul when I think of the triumphs He given to me, I know. Because of what He’s done for me. When it appeared that I had reached a dead end, had no where to turn, with my back up against the wall enemies coming at me from the left, the right, the top and bottom. God showed up and made me right. God showed up and mysteriously he rescued me.
You know what I’m talking about, when you are confronted by life challenges, you don’t know which way to turn or where to turn but God opened up doors miraculously. Yes all of us have our moments, when life circumstances seen to shake us from life’s center to life circumference, but we can be sure that Christ Love is there, he’s surveying our situation, waiting to come to us at just the right time. Miraculously, triumphantly he comes and he deliver the strength we need in an ever present danger. God is real… He real in my soul.
This Song beautifully illustrates what I’m taking about……Yes God is real, He real in my soul.
Jesus Cares For Us All
Jesus Christ simply wants one thing, and that is to bring us into the Body of Christ. We try so many alternatives. We enter so many dead end rooms, that it is ridiculous. While our free will drives us; often it drives us to points of distruction. Almighty God, through His Son Jesus Christ, simply wants to bless us. Give us eternal life so that we can partake of the Grace of peace, healing, and forgiveness of sins, that Jesus gave us on by dying on Calvary.
That is the reality. With Jesus; there are benefits. Even when you are not fully committed to Christ, He’s there watching over you giving you hope when it appears there is no hope. Have you ever been in a situation, or perhaps driving somewhere and something told you to go right instead of left and you found out later tht there was a terrible accident on the road you you did not take?
You know the times when that inner voice warned you about a choice or decision you were about to make and you decided against it. That was the Holy Spirit, God sends the Holy Spirit to us to protect us and lead us down the correct paths in life. He’s not there to wish us harm. He’s there to Guide us and show us the right direction.
The beautiful thing is once you accept Christ as your Savior, He comes to live in you and with you with the Holy Spirit, to strengthen and guide you along the way and that Is a powerful thing! Do yourself a favor; if you have not already done so, ask Jesus to forgive you of your sins and know that he died on the cross for your redemption and that you want Jesus to be the Lord of your life. You will see a transformation, not seen in your lifetime; Jesus will come to live in you, and your life will never be the same.
