What Is Sin
Sin is anything that takes us away from the perfect will of God. Many Christian believers go to church and try to live for Jesus but struggle with guilt, shame, and weakness. Why? Because they address the “sin” issue the wrong way.
Why We Are Not Winning
The reason many Christians are not winning is because they fight the wrong fight. When a human makes mistakes, blows it, or lives at a level lower than their personal expectations, there is a natural desire to feel guilt or shame. The resulting focus is to fight against the actions that cause the guilt.
Powerless
There is no power in trying to fight against natural human frailty. When we set our focus primarily on winning over our failures we actually set ourselves up to fail again. This results in a downward spiral of doubt, defeat, and depression. Sin is simply a symptom of a far greater battle.
The Right Battle
The way to win is to focus on fighting the right battle. The right battle for Christians is to fight daily to access God’s empowering grace. We do this in many ways. One powerful access point is through hearing God’s voice through His word.
Daily Victory
Every day you access the power to overcome human weakness, you have won the right battle. Overcoming sin is not the focus, accessing the power is! Continual victory is a daily focus. By developing a daily personal devotional life with God we experience ongoing victory.
Outward Results
You will discover that the more you connect personally with God’s Word through daily bible reading, you will have a greater victory over human frailty.
