How to function in the Victory over sin.

God's word is God's answer to everything! God has done something regarding sin; we must become aware of this. He made Jesus sin and killed him! Now, the body of sin has been destroyed. The question is: if this is true, how do I function in the victory over sin? The answer is let the reality of your victory over sin sink into you! Through the word, these realities become our immediate experiences. I hear someone say, 'Yeah, right, been there, done that!' Perhaps, you heard this before  and were excited and you tried it, but it didn't seem to work. Now, you think that the whole 'Grace' message is a Scam. I understand you. But, the problem wasn't the Word, it was with you. The Scriptures tell us how God's word bears fruit in our lives in Luke 8:15, 'But that on the good ground are they, which in an honest and good heart, having heard the word, keep it,and bring forth fruit with patience.' The word brings forth fruit with 'Patience'. You aren't going to stop all those habits in one day. Infact, satan will tempt you the more. Why? Because, he is after the Word of truth you have received! But, stay strong in your faith, conscious that God's word is true. With patience, that Word will produce what it talks about. You are still righteous and holy! Another thing is to realize that a sinful thought and a temptation aren't equal to sin! Jesus was tempted too. Don't let the devil badger you with guilt, which really is the fuel for the act of sin! You are God's righteousness by nature and making this your constant consciousness through patience is what helps you function in the victory over sin! God bless you! #Pleroma
