Starve the Sin

“For evils beyond number have surrounded me; my iniquities have overtaken me, so that I am not able to see; they are more numerous than the hairs of my head, and my heart has failed me.” (Psalm 40:12)

Sin is a bacteria.  If left unchecked, it will grow and reproduce itself exponentially.  One lie leads to another lie.  One act of fornication calls us to the next one.  Sin is like greed; it is never satiated, and before you know it, you are surrounded by your sins and the effects.

Starve the sin out.  Kill it early, and examine your character often.  Integrity protection is better than consequence management.

Matthew 4:4 #Biblebites

This Week’s Reading: 2 Kings 7-13; Psalm 40; Proverbs 9

This year, #Biblebites are looking at lessons from the history of the Old Testament.  Each week reads a section of history with a Psalm to meditate on and a dash of Proverbs to dwell upon.  If you would like a copy of the reading schedule, you can view it here: https://eastlandchristians.org/news-events/2024-vision
