How to Stop Sinning.

          Are you struggling with sin? Do you stumble, and fall in the same area repeatedly? Would you like to know why? Would you like to be free?

Psalm 119:9 How can a young man cleanse his way?
By taking heed according to Your word.

Ephesians 5:26 tells us that we are cleansed “with the washing of water by the word.” There are things in our minds, strongholds, things that deal with conduct, old habits, character, and attitude that are only cleansed by the water of the Word. Jesus IS living water. He is also the living Word.

Psalm 119:105 Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path.

          If you stumble continually in the same area, you need light to reveal what you are stumbling over. If you have ever walked barefoot in the dark and slammed your little toe into a piece of furniture, you quickly learn to turn the light on.

          Why is it so hard to grasp our need for continuous light? We walk in a world of darkness, and WE are supposed to be the light of the world now. How can we BE the light if we are not flooded with light?

          It only takes about 100 hours for a slow reader to read the Bible cover to cover, and only 60 hours to listen to the entire Bible read to you on an app like BibleGateway. That means if we would simply read or listen only one hour a day, we would be going through the Bible a minimum of 3-6 times a year. There are no excuses when we stand before Him.

          It reveals how little God’s people respect His Word.

          Darkness cannot remain where the light is constantly shining. Freedom from sin will require us to walk in and stay in the light. How badly do we really want freedom from sin?

1 John 1:7 But if we walk in the light as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus Christ His Son cleanses us from all sin.

1 John 5:18 We know that whoever is born of God does not sin; but he who has been born of God keeps himself, and the wicked one does not touch him.
