(I was reminded of
stories I had heard of people who were excessively wealthy but lived like
paupers and I felt His sadness that we do not avail ourselves of all He has
given us).
Your lack is a witness
against Me to those you love. Your defeat in areas of sin is a witness against
me and a victory for my enemy – your enemy, as well.
If you will only strive and
stand against these areas but a little while and do as I have commanded you in
My Word, I will set you free. I desire you would be a slave to sin no longer.
I desire you would overcome
and walk in victory!
James 1:14 But
every man is tempted, when he is drawn away of his own lust, and enticed.
1 Peter 5:8-10
8 Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the
devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour:
9 Whom resist stedfast in the faith, knowing that
the same afflictions are accomplished in your brethren that are in the world.
10 But the God of all grace, who hath called us
unto his eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after that ye have suffered a while,
make you perfect, stablish, strengthen, settle you.
Revelation 2:7
He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches;
To him that overcometh will I give to eat of the tree of life, which is in the
midst of the paradise of God.
