God Is Your Security Against Shame

There’s no assurance that anything earthly you put your hope in won’t fail you. God is your security against shame, not your parents, job, family or connections. He is the ancient of days. He knows how to take care of you in unimaginable ways. Don’t lose hope in Him.

Put Away Fleshly Desires

Just because you’re saved doesn’t mean the battle to put away fleshly desires the devil suggests to you has ceased. Give no chance to the devil. Don’t say you’ll live pure in God’s house and do evil deeds outside it. No! God is omnipresent. He’s always with you, so live as you’ll do in Christ regardless of location.

The multitude of offences pricks on the hotness of God’s love in your heart. The moment you allow the hurts, disappointments and pain to take root in your heart and form strongholds in your mind, you’ll make it wax cold (Matthew 24:12). Don’t carry this burden of offences.

Leave Room for God’s Wrath

There are laws in every country. Taking matters into your own hands to do evil against someone might end you in jail. Even if not, it might cause a break in a godly relationship such that it may be hard for you to recover again. Let your pain build forgiveness in your heart
