WANT TO SEE CHANGE IN YOUR LIFE ?
First of all I have discovered that no one can change himself in to a better person you can become more intelligent, more knowledgeable. But how many people with all these or as some of these characteristics are (naturally born killers) as
Romans 3:23 for all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;
Jeremiah 17:9 the heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it?
Mark 7:21 For from within, out of the heart of men, proceed evil thoughts, adulteries, fornication, murders,
Free in and Through Christ
How ever there is more than hope for all of us, many have found it but some are still searching.
Philippians 4:13 I can do all things through Christ which strengthener me.
Romans 3:22 Even the righteousness of God which is by faith of Jesus Christ unto all and upon all them that believe:
Righteousness comes only by faith in Jesus Christ.
Faith in Greek is the word Pistis which means Total Reliance upon
Self Will can only get you so fare .
Note Determination, Focus, level hotheadedness are all traits needed when setting achievable goals.
Self will in temporal things may be fine admirable.
However self will with spiritual or character change does not cut it ,and may fall short as mental tools to achieving life altering habits.
God is love and He gives us choice. We can choose to love him or don’t, choose to know him or don’t. Love cannot be forced.
Its either we want Him or not.
I can will myself to do the right things outwardly but inwardly am doing the wrong and possibly hate doing right.
I have come to the conclusions that overcoming bad character traits or any weakness is a fight with keeping the (Faith= Total Reliance upon) Jesus.
Fighting the problem will get me no where. Fighting to keep the relationship with Christ is what gets me the victory over the problem.
As I get close to Him I get further away from the sin challenge.
That is placing the Axe at the root, that is the hammer on the nail.. That is effective
If you are making the same resolutions every year then maybe you’re not fighting the good fight.
The Good Fight is placing energies and emphasis where it matters. That’s what Paul was talking about.when he said in 1Timothy 6:12 Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, whereunto thou art also called, and hast professed a good profession before many witnesses.
Place the emphasis on Knowing Christ on looking at Him daily.
YOU WILL SEE CHANGE IN YOUR LIFE.
