Break The Cycle

Published on 4 June 2024 at 11:03

Good morning,

Malachi 2:10

Have we not all one father? hath not one God created us? why do we deal treacherously every man against his brother, by profaning the covenant of our fathers?

Ephesians 4:22-32

[22]That ye put off concerning the former conversation the old man, which is corrupt according to the deceitful lusts;[23]And be renewed in the spirit of your mind;[24]And that ye put on the new man, which after God is created in righteousness and true holiness.[25]Wherefore putting away lying, speak every man truth with his neighbour: for we are members one of another.[26]Be ye angry, and sin not: let not the sun go down upon your wrath:[27]Neither give place to the devil.[28]Let him that stole steal no more: but rather let him labour, working with his hands the thing which is good, that he may have to give to him that needeth.[29]Let no corrupt communication proceed out of your mouth, but that which is good to the use of edifying, that it may minister grace unto the hearers.[30]And grieve not the holy Spirit of God, whereby ye are sealed unto the day of redemption.[31]Let all bitterness, and wrath, and anger, and clamour, and evil speaking, be put away from you, with all malice:[32]And be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ's sake hath forgiven you.

I'm not going to say a lot, because the scripture pretty much sums it up. We have to make a decision to break the sin cycle. It's a choice, either continue living of the world or start a new life with Jesus. You see, if you're not with Jesus you're of the world (not with it). The world can't be with you, because it's not a holy being like God. So, if you're of it you're alone. However, God can be with you always. If you're a child of God you're never alone.

That being said, if you're a child of God... Why then do you not follow His comments? Why do you treat fellow Christians the way you do? What is the reason for holding on to your old ways and not letting God have control? If you're walking the fence with one leg in the old life and one in the new, sooner or later you're going to fall to one side or the other. Which will it be? It's up to you. Jesus gives us the freedom to choose. Which will you choose?

John 17:1-26[1]These words spake Jesus, and lifted up his eyes to heaven, and said, Father, the hour is come; glorify thy Son, that thy Son also may glorify thee:[2]As thou hast given him power over all flesh, that he should give eternal life to as many as thou hast given him.[3]And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent.[4]I have glorified thee on the earth: I have finished the work which thou gavest me to do.[5]And now, O Father, glorify thou me with thine own self with the glory which I had with thee before the world was.[6]I have manifested thy name unto the men which thou gavest me out of the world: thine they were, and thou gavest them me; and they have kept thy word.[7]Now they have known that all things whatsoever thou hast given me are of thee.[8]For I have given unto them the words which thou gavest me; and they have received them, and have known surely that I came out from thee, and they have believed that thou didst send me.[9]I pray for them: I pray not for the world, but for them which thou hast given me; for they are thine.[10]And all mine are thine, and thine are mine; and I am glorified in them.[11]And now I am no more in the world, but these are in the world, and I come to thee. Holy Father, keep through thine own name those whom thou hast given me, that they may be one, as we are.[12]While I was with them in the world, I kept them in thy name: those that thou gavest me I have kept, and none of them is lost, but the son of perdition; that the scripture might be fulfilled.[13]And now come I to thee; and these things I speak in the world, that they might have my joy fulfilled in themselves.[14]I have given them thy word; and the world hath hated them, because they are not of the world, even as I am not of the world.[15]I pray not that thou shouldest take them out of the world, but that thou shouldest keep them from the evil.[16]They are not of the world, even as I am not of the world.[17]Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth.[18]As thou hast sent me into the world, even so have I also sent them into the world.[19]And for their sakes I sanctify myself, that they also might be sanctified through the truth.[20]Neither pray I for these alone, but for them also which shall believe on me through their word;[21]That they all may be one; as thou, Father, art in me, and I in thee, that they also may be one in us: that the world may believe that thou hast sent me.[22]And the glory which thou gavest me I have given them; that they may be one, even as we are one:[23]I in them, and thou in me, that they may be made perfect in one; and that the world may know that thou hast sent me, and hast loved them, as thou hast loved me.[24]Father, I will that they also, whom thou hast given me, be with me where I am; that they may behold my glory, which thou hast given me: for thou lovedst me before the foundation of the world.[25]O righteous Father, the world hath not known thee: but I have known thee, and these have known that thou hast sent me.[26]And I have declared unto them thy name, and will declare it: that the love wherewith thou hast loved me may be in them, and I in them.
