The Poison in your Bad Habits
Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud
of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily
beset us, and let us run with
patience the race that is set before us,
Hebrews 12:1
Before now, I did procrastinate a lot. These delays cost me a lot
more than I bargained for. It was a slow and trickery robber of good things. Same
goes for every negative habit that stands against God’s plan for your life.
Negative Habits are weights and burdens. There are a lot of harmful addictions in our
lives that are contrary to building a fulfilled life. A fulfilled life is one
with less regrets of what we ought to have done. If you are not pleased with
the way things are going, then it’s high time for a change.
Your Habits Influence Your Personality
Gambling, sex addictions in form of pornography, adultery, fornication
etc... Alcoholism, social media and television addictions, may develop a strong
hold in your life. Addictions creep in slowly and look harmless.
Negative addictions are poisons that can slowly destroy you or too quickly knock you down.
But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve through
his subtilty, so your minds should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in
Christ.
2Corinthians 11:3
3 Powerful steps
to Break free from Negative Habits
1. Break the hold of the enemy over
your life through confession. Confession is an open shame to the works of
the enemy. Turn back to God in sincerity. God will grant you the victory you
require.
For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the
mouth confession is made unto salvation.
Romans 10:10
2. Prayers and Fasting The effectual and
fervent prayers of the righteous man avail much.
And he said unto them, This kind can come forth by nothing, but by prayer
and fasting.
Mark 9:29
3. We overcome by the word of our
testimony. Testify what the Lord has done in your life. Testimonies
seal our victory over the works of the enemy.
And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of
their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death.
Revelation 12:11
