Temptations and desires in the real world
The first three days of this week I was beaten’ down mentally. I couldn’t focus on my second novel because of questions about my commitment for my wife. I have sin mentally and that’s just as worse as doing it physically. I could use the excuse that I am a man but no one especially my wife would care.
Nobody sins because they have to we do it because of our own desires. I am so glad it didn’t go to far. God has pulled me back into his arms and embraced me for thinking the wrong things.
Sin starts in the inside of you. It doesn’t start on the outside. I was the potential bait. If I put my self out there like that then its my fault. If I bit the bait I would be hook. The bible talks about certain women who bait the men. The word hook is talked about in the bible, that’s were we get the word hooker from. I am not calling anyone a hooker but you understand. Desire gives birth to sin. Weather your desire is food or drugs or whatever, when desire is conceived sin is born. I fully appreciate what I now have without mentally going out of my way to pacify my desires. My mind is now home. Sin kills marriages, good ministries and families. James says in the bible, blessed is the man who endures temptation. There are people out there who give in to temptation. And those people don’t lose their reputation, their testimony, life, marriage ect. The three steps to over come temptation is:
One Salvation ( you need Jesus Christ to over come. We are no match for the Devil
Two Separation (the best way not to get burn is stay away from the fire. Soloman says a wise man stays away from temptation. If I never get in the wrong place at the wrong time with the wrong person I can not do the wrong thing
Three Saturation (you have to satuate your self with the lord.) Sin will keep you from this book (Bible) or this book will keep you from sin.
