Thoughts for the Day


This week we have discussed the fact that when it is in our power to change a situation that will likely cause us to sin and we choose not to act to change it, we are guilty of the sin of proximity-sometimes called the sin before the sin.

The sin before the sin involves the little decisions we make that set us up for temptation and sin. If we are to overcome the strongholds in our lives that constantly pull us in the wrong direction, we have to come to a place of radical obedience and do everything possible to eliminate those occasions for sin that are in our control.

Failing to take appropriate actions to eliminate the stumbling blocks that lead us to sin is a serious issue for many of us. Sexual temptation has presented itself to most of us at some time in our lives. Today's Scripture advises us to run from sexual sin.


Consider This . . .

With sexual sin, the longer we are in the presence of temptation, the less likely we are to escape without sinning. It is so much better to avoid the sin before the sin. To run from the sin of proximity.

Stay in fellowship with Jesus. Turn to him for the strength you need. With him, you can do all things.
