ππ₯ FULL DEVO BELOWπ₯π "24 Those who belong to Christ Jesus have nailed the passions and desires of their sinful nature to his cross and crucified them there." We do not need to live in a victim mindset! If you belong to Christ you have crucified your sinful nature to Jesus' cross. These should not have power over you. If they seem to have power, maybe you are giving them power. We need to consider this. We have the tools of the Spirit, and the people of the Spirit, to help us walk in a manner worthy of his calling (Eph 4:1). It may take time! - God doesn't always heal, change, or transform overnight! He can, but he also wants us to grow in character and understanding... It may take effort! - Jesus doesn't call it "the narrow path" and "the narrow door" for nothing! - Just because it is simple doesn't make it easy! We have to walk with the Church - Accountability, friendship, spiritual direction, pastoral counseling, medical intervention, therapeutic intervention...all these things are a gift and a grace to us! But the freedom of life in the Spirit is available to ALL who choose to follow. Let go of our victim mindset and walk in the Spirit. Walk in this freedom. PRAY Sit with this verse. Ask God to speak to you about this. Any questions, reach out, I would love to talk!
