     | 16,369 views

    Someone who sits idly without a purpose is an easy target for temptation. We are easily drawn away when we don’t have a purpose we are reaching for. When we are reaching ahead, we have to stop and change directions in order to sin.

    Step Three - Pursuing Your Purpose The final step I want to focus on in overcoming sinful habits is your purpose. Each of our lives has been created by God for a purpose. As long as we are living outside of that purpose, there will be emptiness and a desire to crowd our lives with pleasures and ...read more

    For one. If my life is easy and all good, maybe I better consider that I’m not doing everything I need to do for God. Because if it is all good, then Satan can leave you alone, like the Rich Man. And two. If you are going through or when you go throug

     | 9,921 views

    When we don’t understand what God is doing in our lives it is important that we wait upon the Lord instead of drawing quick conclusions about God’s activity and character.
