But put on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make no provision for the flesh in regard to its lusts.
Romans 13:14, But put on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make no provision for the flesh in regard to its lusts.
If you hate your job, it is because you have emotionally quit it. It appears obvious that once you hate something, it will soon follow that you want nothing to do with it. Let’s apply this simple principle in a different way. If you hate your sin, it is because you’ve emotionally divorced yourself from it and want nothing to do with it. The next step is to acknowledge the fact of it and embrace your freedom. Many people would rather do what they want to do and beat themselves up in self-hatred later than do what the Lord is asking them to do and be happy. Why? Why do they spend a lifetime doing this?
