DAILY DEVOTIONAL

James 1:13-15 Amplified Bible (AMP)

13 Let no one say when he is tempted, I am tempted from God; for God is incapable of being tempted by [what is] evil and He Himself tempts no one.

14 But every person is tempted when he is drawn away, enticed and baited by his own evil desire (lust, passions).

15 Then the evil desire, when it has conceived, gives birth to sin, and sin, when it is fully matured, brings forth death.

 

There have been times in my life when I felt like I had no choice. I felt like I had to sin. I felt like I could not stop myself. Well, my feelings lied to me. I could stop myself and the answer is in this verse, "drawn away, enticed and baited by his own evil desire (lust, passions)". The answer lies in what you think about. Are you thinking about what you want or what God wants? Get your mind focused on the things of God and talk about His things. When you think and talk about your lusts they will conceive into sin and eventually death. But, when you focus on God you will live an abundant life. You will live the God kind of life.

Speak the Word: Father, I love you. I know that you only want the best for me. I will think about the life you want me to live and I will live the God kind of life.
