But put on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make no provision for the flesh, to gratify its desires.Romans 13:15
It takes discipline to lead the Christian life but it is a joyful life once you conquer the ‘flesh’ and wrong thinking.
There are many verses in scripture about putting on the new self and imagine yourself dressing in your spiritual outfit. Take off the guilt, shame, anger, comparison, jealousy, and all the freshly things that rob you of joy. For some it might be putting away sensual desires, pornography, lies of Satan and other earthly pleasures that lead you away from Christ.
Today take stock of your life. What do you need to gravitate towards and add to your spiritual wardrobe and what do you need to put off and throw out?
PRAYER: Father I know Satan likes to torment those wanting to stay on the right path of life. Give me strength to break any strongholds and keep focused on above. In Jesus’ name. Amen. Put On, Put Off
