Snow, remember when you were a child & you wanted something really bad, you would demand it & ignore all else. This is how we are to live for Christ.
satan is in the world.. it's all the bad stuff/ the evil temptations,
lying, adultry, fornication, sloth, etc.
in order to be a mature Christian it is in knowing what Jesus wants us to do. The bible is The Instruction Manual. Then follow it.
There are people that, because of mental disabilities do tend to have more trouble following along the path, BUT we are all sinners & God Forgives sin.
It is renewing of the mind, we are carnal natured, HOWEVER, we are transformed by HIS LOVE & HIS WORD.
when you are child you demand what you like because we want something & fear not having it. Well GOD IS. GOD IS .. LOVE!
What we NEED is LOVE. We NEED GOD'S LOVE.
So, once you know this, as adult, can say it, then CHOOSE GOD.
When we then go about & DECIDE that we are going to loose ourselves of all sin in every possible way, doing all we can,
just as we wanted that toy/s so badly we totally focus on that,
then focus on JESUS like this that you want to be in HEAVEN,
nothing else matters so you do all you can to not sin.
All else is repulsive.
As other guest said, it is your HEART with GOD'S HEART.
THE REFINER'S FIRE.
ACTION/HEART ACTION.. move TOWARD CHRIST.
Too, living a life that is pleasing to God,
means walking with other Christians that will hold us accountable, letting go of vices that lead us to sin. CHOOSE with all of your might, to be with those that have the same path as you, CHRIST.
GOD IS LOVE. Ignight the fire of your heart.
satan will try to trick you by tempting you away from God's Truth.
God's Path is defined, beautiful, pure, holy, LOVE.
It is AWESOME, ENERGY, YOUR HEART... on fire for GOD & all that is of HIM. Let all else fall from you, put on THE ARMOR OF GOD.
LOVE. ignore satan & evil & all of the vices thereof.
Do what is God's Will. It's not easy.. but look how much energy we spend as children fighting for that toy/s.
we use the energy of our HEART, ACTION, the center/with our soul of ourselves.. GOD IS LOVE. then renewing of mind to GOD/HEAVEN,
the emotions will follow..
GOD IS LOVE.
He Is our ALL.
tell satan to go away, you're busy.
mean it.
