The same sins keep tripping us up. Because we are wrapped up and held captive by that sin.

Quick Hit!


Proverbs 5: 22 The evil deeds of the wicked ensnare them; the cords of their sins hold them fast. (NIV)


Ever had that sin that you just couldn’t get away from? You could not break the habit and pattern of that sin? Well the answer is right here in this passage. Every time we sin, it is as if there is string that gets wrapped around us. When there are just one or two strings, we could easily break free and escape. But, the more and more we continue in that sin, then we become the captive of that sin and we have no choice but to keep on in that sin. It takes something dramatic for us to break free. So, I have two questions for you today. What sin is it that holds you captive? And, how do we break free from that sin? We all want to live a life that is more pleasing to Christ and we all have sins that we deal with for months and years. We keep repeating the same thing. So, read on in the deeper dive and see how to break the pattern.
