Are you discouraged because you keep committing the same sins over and over again? Here\u2019s your answer: soak your mind in God\u2019s Word! Just like you soak a sponge in water and it comes out dripping and filled to capacity, soak your mind in Scripture until it\u2019s filled to the brim with God\u2019s Word. That way, when you\u2019re tempted to do wrong, your first recourse will be a \u2018Spirit and Word\u2019 empowered response. <\/p>\n
If you keep doing what you\u2019ve always done, you\u2019ll keep getting the same results. So if you are sick and tired of living in defeat, here\u2019s a time-tested prescription from God\u2019s Word for making you whole: <\/p>\n
\u2018How can a young person [or an older one] stay pure? By obeying Your Word.\u2019<\/i> (Psalm 119:9 NLT) <\/p>\n
\u2018You are already clean because of the Word\u2026 I have spoken to you.\u2019<\/i> (John 15:3 NKJV) <\/p>\n
\u2018That He might sanctify and cleanse [you] with the washing of water by the Word.\u2019<\/i> (Ephesians 5:26 NKJV) <\/p>\n
\u2018The Word of God is living and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit\u2026 joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.\u2019<\/i> (Hebrews 4:12 NKJV) <\/p>\n
\u2018Your words were found, and I ate them, and Your word was to me the joy and rejoicing of my heart; for I am called by Your name.\u2019<\/i> (Jeremiah 15:16 NKJV) <\/p>\n
These Scriptures all lead to one conclusion: if you\u2019re serious about wanting to walk in victory, you must get into God\u2019s Word and<\/i> get God\u2019s Word into you. There is no other way.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
