Delete That!

But now you must also rid yourselves of all such things as these: anger, rage, malice, slander, and filthy language from your lips. Colossians 3:8

Ever try to delete things from your mobile device only to find them still there later and the time wasted you were supposedly deleting? Bad habits and sin can keep popping up too. That is not a good thing. You know you are wrong and want to stop but there you go again repeating something you know is dragging you down hill. 

It could be judging others. Maybe it is coveting others possessions or not being happy with what God has blessed you with. Perhaps it viewing movies you know to be questionable and thus putting stuff in your mind and heart that have no business there. You catch yourself saying “I can’t stand her” when you know you are commanded to love. This is a partial list but the idea is these things need a big deletion.

No one is perfect and everyone slips up. Don’t let Satan lie to you to make you feel it is okay because in your heart you know it is not. Suggestion would be to make a daily habit of feeding on the word of God and purge wrong junk from your life. God can help you if you really want to. 

PRAYER: I can’t do anything with out your help Lord because the sinful nature wants to drag me into wrong thinking and behavior. I choose to run from this stronghold. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
