james 1.18 (niv), HE chose to gives us birth
through the word of truth that we might be a kind of first fruit of all
that HE created.
just a thought from
the front porch…
james here is not talking about physical birth. he’s talking about being spiritually
born. a rebirth. starting over with GOD. he saying to be reborn. be reborn.
the single most important principle in breaking bad
habits and getting control of your life is to let GOD have control of it. get HIM in your life so HE starts changing your
character. being born again gives you a
new capacity to resist temptation.
you don’t have enough power in your own will
power. you need supernatural power. you need JESUS CHRIST in your life. that’s what it means to be born again. it means you get a fresh start on life. ask CHRIST in. ask HIM to make the changes and give you the
power you need to do what you know is right to do anyway.
folks, you will not be able to say no to temptation
until you first learn to say yes to GOD.
you need HIS power in your life.
you need to not only be redirected and these other things but you need
to be reborn. that’s the starting
point. then you’ll have more than just
your own power.
