To live an effective Christian life and fulfill God’s assignment for your life, you must be faithful in prayer. You must be serious with your early morning daily devotions. In your prayers, ask God everyday for spiritual strength. Pray for the strength to walk in practical holiness and righteousness.

Unfortunately, a lot of Christians live in sin because of spiritual weakness.  Christians walk in anger, pride, bitterness, and lust. There is so much unrighteousness in churches today; this should not be so.

One of the potentials that you received as a new creation is the capacity to live like God. Please know this: You can live without sin. This is possible because of your new nature in Christ.

The bible tells us that:

“No one who is born of God will continue to sin, because God’s seed remains in him; he cannot go on sinning, because he has been born of God.”
~1 John 3:9

Come to God each day in prayer and ask Him for the strength to live above sin, and to overcome temptation. I challenge you today to walk in righteousness, and holiness. But that can’t be by your strength. If you don’t have a strong prayer life, you will always keep falling into sin and repenting. If you want to escape this vicious cycle of falling into sin, repenting from the sin, only to fall back again, you must be faithful in prayer.

If you build a personal habit of getting up early in the morning, and seeking God for spiritual strength, you will find yourself walking in victory everyday.

Memory Verse:
1 John 3:9
“No one who is born of God will continue to sin, because God’s seed remains in him; he cannot go on sinning, because he has been born of God.”

Prayer:
Thank you Father for the new nature that you bestowed on me through Jesus’ death on the Cross. I receive strength today to live above sin and overcome temptations, in Jesus’ name.
Amen.
