I was told: prayer and fasting is not the way.
So please, tell me.
Okay so I just have to believe ok i already believed Jesus died on cross for everyone's sins. Yes.It is through faith - faith that Christ has already done what is necessary. It is now up to us to believe (reckon means act on it as well) that our old man WAS crucified with Christ, and that we are now able to have victory over sin. Will try to post some writings on it but look up Holiness Movement writers.
I need to have control of something - like i am drifting in the current.It is through faith
Maybe I am not fully comfortable with faith - you have people in this world that are *DIY* type of people they are in control and it works for them.It is through faith
I AM REALLY TRYING HERE MAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! COS I DON'T LIKE NOT BEING IN CONTROL OF MY FUTURE AND LEAVING THINGS IN THE OPEN!It is through faith
I AM ALWAYS DEFEATED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!victory over sin.
I HAVE BEEN RANTING TO THIS PASTOR (who gave me his number) REALLY RANTING! I am NEARLY THERE to saying F*SK IT! AND DOING WHAT I KNOW I CAN DO TO HAVE MY JOY!It is through faith - faith that Christ has already done what is necessary. It is now up to us to believe (reckon means act on it as well) that our old man WAS crucified with Christ, and that we are now able to have victory over sin. Will try to post some writings on it but look up Holiness Movement writers.
I have been told all these things to read the Pastor i met in the park gave me the RHAPSODY DEVOTIONS to read - I NEED GOD TO COME TO ME IN HIS MEGA POWER!Yes you will go round and round the foot of the mountain until you are delivered from th e power and presence of sin.
You could start with reading the works of Daniel Steele for a start till I find something more.
The Life and Writings of Daniel Steele
I am sick of people that are in the position of *FULFILMENT* to tell other to WAIT and TAKE THE JOURNEY - people like you make me sick.There is no immediate fix for the situation you describe. It is like a 5 year old kid wanting to drive and own a house.
You need to find an older mature christain man who will mentor (disciple) you and grow you up the way a parent grows up their 5 year old child.
This is why people end things in life.Most of the church believes in 'gradual sanctification' and the results are obvious - it does not work. Try the way that does work.
Patience. And lots of it.
The narrow way is hard. Its not easy. There is no 'quick fix'.
Some people suffer all their lives but stay true to God. You have to offer up your suffering to God. Accept them. Its not easy, i know. Take each day as it comes. Keep your faith no matter how you are feeling. No matter what obstacles come your way.
Well.................................................................SOMETHING BIG MUST HAPPEN!
Cos I am VERY close to downloading certain apps and doing what I can do to fulfil in my own way.
So a father is happy to allow his child to kill themself?You mention suicide in another post. I know what those feelings are like. Its a horrible place. No amount of words can help. For me though, its my faith in God. Through very dark times i continued to turn to God. There is no other way.
