I know that nothing good lives in me, That is, in my sinful nature. For i have the desire to do what is good, but i cannot carry it out.
Romans 7:18
THOUGHTS FOR TODAY
We live in a very dark world and its easy to get off track of our relationship with God , But he promises he will never leave us nor forsake us if we press in with our relationship with Jesus and don't give up the fight .
Sometimes even with the new nature of God in us that's of you have accept Jesus as your lord and savior but sometimes we say or do things that we should not do
Paul in The Book of Romans understood that struggle If your not a christian
you would not understand because you must know the nature of God who lives in you and it cant happen unless you accepted Jesus as your personal Savior .
We as christian do fall sometimes and slip but a Godly man picks himself up
Romans 8:1 says there is therefore no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus who do not walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit.
God will give you the strength to walk in the spirit because his spirit lives in you
as for Paul in Romans 7 Paul battle between the flesh and the spirit and he wanted to do right always did wrong ..but in verse 25 of Romans 7 he said I thank God through Jesus Christ our lord he has set me free.
That is why Jesus died for us so we dont have to worry because he loves us so much and we are secure in him as our personal savior.Jeremiah 10:23
O Lord, I know the way of man is not in himself; it is not in man who walks to direct his own steps.
QUOTE
The flesh hates everything about God. Since it resists everything about God, it resists every way we try to taste Him and know Him and love Him. And the more something enables us to find God and feast on Him, the more violently the flesh fights against it. It takes its battle to every quarter of the soul: When the mind wants to know God, the flesh imposes ignorance, darkness, error and trivial thoughts. The will can't move toward God without feeling the weight of stubbornness holding it back. And the affections, longing to long for God, are constantly fighting the infection of sensuality or the disease of indifference.

Prayer for the Christian
Dear Lord help us in our weakness when we fall short and when we feel weak
help us to walk in the spirit not the flesh but most of all thank for loving us in our
weakness because then we become strong in Jesus name Amen
Prayer for those not Christians
if you want to accept Jesus say Dear Lord i know i am a sinner and i need you into my life and i want to follow you as my personal savior ..so i ask you to forgive me for my sins
and ask you come into my heart as my personal savior Jesus ....Jesus save me in Jesus name Amen
If you prayed that confess it to someone because confession is very important dont be a shame to tell some one and Jesus will not be A shame to tell his father in heaven Amen
