Romans 8:5 Those who are dominated by the sinful nature think about sinful things, but those who are controlled by the Holy Spirit think about things that please the Spirit.
I was pleased to cover today the purpose of the law and why it was given, but my Spirit won't let me go before I explain more about sin.
As God's has a Spirit, so the devil's. God is a Spirit, who works among the sons of disobedience to the devil, a Christian is disobedient to the devil. You're obedient to God but to satan you're not. Like wise the devil is also a spirit who works among the sons of disobedience towards God.
These are two powerful forces [but ofcourse one has already defeated another] who operates with different systems, one of righteousness and another of sinfulness.
So sin is the mind of the devil and righteous is the mind of God.
Romans 8:5 just says it all, that there are some who dicided to obey the sin nature and yes they always think of sinful things, and those who obey God, always think of the things of the Spirit.
Sin is a person, and preaches its news among the whole human race, and in fact to them its called good news. Many of us have heard in the gatherings of young people all over the world in there communities, when they gather, they are talking and boasting about their deeds like having sex with someone, smoking, stealing, killing, torturing and so many others not forgetting the homosexual campaigns taking place all over the world. This is the life of sin, and becides that, there's nothing you can love from them or be attracted to, when you're living by the Spirit of God.
Romans 8:6 says,
So letting your sinful nature control your mind leads to death. But letting the Spirit control your mind leads to life and peace.
Since these two systems oppose each other, even the end result isn't the same. One leads to death and another to Life and peace.
Deuteronomy 30:19-20 "Today I have given you the choice between life and death, between blessings and curses. Now I call on heaven and earth to witness the choice you make. Oh, that you would choose life, so that you and your descendants might live! You can make this choice by loving the Lord your God, obeying him, and committing yourself firmly to him. He is the key to your life.
See how God is, His great love for us, He gave us a choice to make, "Life or death." But to my consideration for you is that, chose life over death, this will ever be your greatest decision to make in life.
The key to your life is simple, it's not far away from you, it's not far in heaven that who will go and bring it to you that you may be set free from sin, it's just on your lips, make a choice and commit your life to Jesus, to love Him, obeying and committing firmly your life to God.
Let me pray, My father, you're the King of this universe, am so blessed that I choose you over sin, am thankful that sin no longer has dominion over me. Through You the whole earth has received redemption from the devil. I pray that, may your will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Thank You and thank You my father. Amen.
Thanks for reading, have a great evening and a warm greetings from me in Jesus name, Amen.
