OVERCOMING SIN:

We can only overcome a lifestyle of sin by completely surrendering our life to The LORD Jesus Christ, and accepting the blood offering that He shed at the cross of Calvary, for the remission of sins.

This so that we can be washed and covered by the precious blood of The LORD Jesus Christ. Thereby asking The LORD to baptize us and anoint us with the power of The Holy Spirit to guide us, comfort us, help us, counsel us and to lead us.

This therefore, is a journey we cannot walk in alone, because this road (path) is very narrow and we require a helper, a guide, a comforter and a counselor: The Holy Spirit.

Not by might nor by power (human power) does one overcome sin, but by The Spirit of The LORD (The Holy Spirit).

When one is in a Lifestyle of Sin, then they literally allow all kinds and types of demons to enter them, and to take reign of their soul, spirit, mind, heart and body.

Where there is no sin (The sins having been washed away by the blood of The LORD Jesus Christ, and one is thus now covered and protected by the blood of The LORD Jesus Christ), there is no longer the bondage of demons. For one has now been set free by The LORD Jesus Christ. Them whom Christ Jesus has set free, are free indeed; and are no longer burdened by the sins.

Remember also that there is no big sin and small sin, all are sin and must be Repented of and cleansed of. Remember, The LORD Jesus Christ Himself said that anyone who breaks any one of the commandments is guilty of breaking them all.

To come out of a lifestyle of sin and to set on a new journey on the narrow road that leads to eternal life in The Kingdom of The LORD God Almighty in Heaven, one needs to embrace absolute Repentance. In other words, one needs to Repent for the forgiveness of their sins.

To Repent is to turn away from sin by taking full responsibility of the sins committed, being remorseful for the sins committed and going before The LORD with sincerity in one’s heart, and praying and pleading with The LORD to have mercy on one and to forgive one of the sins.

In so doing, one need to Repent also of Generational sins and curses; one need to Repent of all the sins one has committed (including the ones we can’t remember) from the time one was born till now.

Thereafter, let’s sin no more. Let’s now not deliberately sin because in so doing we are returning The LORD Jesus Christ back to the cross to be crucified Again!

Let Repentance be our daily portion; for continual cleansing, purification, revival, refining and sanctification.

We must thus thereby now take to the path of Holiness, Righteousness and Wisdom before The LORD The God of Heaven.

If Repentance is the key that opens for us the door to the narrow path/narrow road, then the living (the lifestyle) on the narrow road/path is Holiness, Righteousness and Wisdom before The LORD The God of Heaven.  

Holiness is to set oneself apart for the glory and honour of The LORD The God of Heaven. Righteousness is following the ways and the requirements of The LORD (as is written in His word The Bible) so that we be Right before Him. Wisdom is the fear of The LORD/The reverence before The LORD The God of Heaven.

Overcoming sin also entails praying, fasting, reading the word of God, worshipping & praising The LORD in spirit and in truth, serving The LORD in purity.

Remember, the wages of sin is death, but the gift/reward of Salvation (being born-again) is Eternal Life in the glorious Kingdom of The LORD God Almighty in Heaven. Those whose sins have been paid for, are those who receive and accept Christ Jesus as their LORD, Master and Saviour. The second death has got no power over them.

Those who reject Christ Jesus have their sins unpaid for, hence cannot escape eternal death in hell/the lake of fire, unless they Repent for the forgiveness of their sins before it is too late (before their souls departs from the earth: before their physical death).

Be Wise: Repent and pursue Righteousness and Holiness. That you be Saved, and attain Eternal Life.

SHALOM!!!

Mathew 11:28-30 ‘“Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For My yoke is easy and My burden is light.”’

Mathew 7:13-14 ‘“Enter by the narrow gate; for wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction, and there are many who go in by it. Because narrow is the gate and difficult is the way which leads to life, and there are few who find it.”’

John 8:23-31 ‘“And He said to them, “You are from beneath; I am from above. You are of this world; I am not of this world. Therefore I said to you that you will die in your sins; for if you do not believe that I am He, you will die in your sins.” Then they said to Him, “Who are You?” And Jesus said to them, “Just what I have been saying to you from the beginning. I have many things to say and to judge concerning you, but He who sent Me is true; and I speak to the world those things which I heard from Him.” They did not understand that He spoke to them of the Father. Then Jesus said to them, “When you lift up the Son of Man, then you will know that I am He, and that I do nothing of Myself; but as My Father taught Me, I speak these things.  And He who sent Me is with Me. The Father has not left Me alone, for I always do those things that please Him.” As He spoke these words, many believed in Him. Then Jesus said to those Jews who believed Him, “If you abide in My word, you are My disciples indeed. And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.”

Zechariah 4:5-7 ‘“Then the angel who talked with me answered and said to me, “Do you not know what these are?” And I said, “No, my LORD.” So he answered and said to me: “This is the word of The LORD to Zerubbabel: ‘Not by might nor by power, but by My Spirit,’ Says The LORD of hosts. ‘Who are you, O great mountain? Before Zerubbabel you shall become a plain! And he shall bring forth the capstone With shouts of “Grace, grace to it!”’

Ephesians 6:10-18 ‘“Finally, be strong in The LORD and in his mighty power. Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes. For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand. Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place, and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace. In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all The LORD’s people.”’
