Spiritual De-toxification!

How about that. Its what I am going through now. Sometimes, over time, we have swallowed so much unhealthy things into our spiritual body. So much contamination and what's worse, is that these contaminated materials made us so dependent on the physical world that we had conform to the worldly habits. This explains why it was so difficult to give up old habits. We tend to justify our thirst for vengeance, anger, selfish ambition and all the traits that we were warned about in the Bible. The beginning of change is difficult. But it gets easier, the longer we resist.

The Holy Spirit is my strength. I am really tired of feeling guilty. Although we could avoid the physical transgressions, but we tend to commit mental transgressions. Nevertheless, as long as we are steadfast, in prayer, we can resist. The more we resist, the bigger our spiritual muscles will grow. :)

I feel like I am a new person all over again. I feel like God has poured His grace upon me, giving me another chance at being a faithful Disciple. It's a Blessing worth testifying about and yet I felt that I must be over excited about God's faithfulness unless I am serious about following Him. I suppose, It's a journey towards spiritual maturity and I am forever grateful to Almighty God for being the most wonderful creator and the most beautiful Saviour for what He is doing to me right now.

Revelations!

A few days ago, my brother in-law called me and told me about seven Columbian youths who were taken to Hell and back. I thought,' yeah, just like some sensational story which I heard before'. 2 days ago, I actually read their testimonies. Today, I am still reading them. Before I read their testimony, I thought I was doing alright, I thought I was okay and I thought I knew about life and gifted in discernment, able to justify 'white lies' & fleshly pleasures. Now, after reading their testimonies and researching similar experiences by many others, I realized that everything I thought to be right, turned out to be wrong.

"For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the LORD."
Isaiah 55:8 KJV

I was filled with great conviction about the double life I have lead. A great conviction it was, that I was convicted by the Holy Spirit for all my disobedience and was reminded that the more I continue in that path, I am in danger of backsliding.

I knew now, there is time and the opportunity to set things right before God. I really want to be part of Heaven and for that to happen we must be on the side of Truth. There is no greater Truth other than the One who died for our Sins. Because of Jesus, We have this opportunity. We must not wait till its too late. The testimonies of the 7 youths really shook me. Immediately i confessed my sins to God and prayed for His advice as to which direction I should take.

Brothers and Sisters, we all knew and what is worse, is that we wilfully sinned again and again! This time unlike other times, such testimonies openend my eyes because again, the Holy Spirit is rescuing us from eternal Death. I realized that nothing on Earth really matters now. No riches, pleasures of this world can comfort us. Nothing can save us from Hell if we choose the wrong path. PLEASE choose the right path. Let's strive to be HOLY.

Here are the links to the testimonies of the 7 Columbian kids and other individuals.
