JUNE 14TH – CAPSULE 14
TOPIC: MAKE A CLEAN BREAK
BIBLE TEXT: EPHESIANS 4 VS 31-32 – Make a clean break without cutting, backbiting, profane talk. Be gentle with one another, sensitive. Forgive one another as quickly and thoroughly as God in Christ forgave you. [MSG]
The road to godly perfection (wholeness) leads to holiness from within, as the reflection of every man shows the quantity and quality of what we possess within. As children of God we are representatives of our heavenly father here on earth and to represent Him well, we must make a clean break from every nature of the flesh.
The word of God in Galatians 5 describes various forms of the nature of the flesh. Which corrupts us from within to defile and pollute our hearts. The heart as described in Matthew 15 by Christ Jesus is the point of action where either good or bad comes out from. Judas Iscariot had darkness in his heart and he became a tool (pawn) in the devil’s hand and after his betrayal of Christ, he failed to let go of all the darkness within him and he died with it.
A certain disciple of Jesus Christ, Simon Peter also denied Christ, 3 times but after the sound of the cock crow, Peter made a clean break of all the darkness within him. You can also live a life free of bitterness and malice today, just call on the name of the Lord as Peter did and you will be saved. God’s mercy is available for you to make a clean break.
Prayer: Dear Father in heaven, I receive the grace to let go of the ways of the flesh, fill me with more of you in Jesus name.
Insight: Letting go of the ways of the flesh gives you room to receive more from the Holy Spirit.
