Stay in the Word

The Word is a living book, and it will help you to overcome temptation.

Psalm 119:11New King James Version (NKJV)

11 Your word I have hidden in my heart,
That I might not sin against You.


The more we get into the Word and digest it, the easier it will be to live a holy life. I challenge you to read the Word throughout the day, or whenever you can. It will help you to have a clean mind. In fact, the more and more that you seek the Lord by whatever means possible, the more you will be delivered from sin, and especially addictions. We all need to be addicted on something, and the Lord can addict us with his presence as we rely on him more. 

But, let me say something about feelings. When you feel the Lord's presence more and more, do not rely on feelings, because what if for an entire month, you aren't feeling him. It will tear you apart, and you will stop relying on the Lord. It requires commitment, just like committing to your wife. I have never had a wife to commit to, but it probably be a lot easier to commit to something once you have a wife. 

Psalm 119:50New King James Version (NKJV)

50 This is my comfort in my affliction,
For Your word has given me life.
