战胜罪性
凡属基督耶稣的人，是已经把肉体，连肉体的邪情私欲，同钉在十字架上了。
——加5：24
我们战胜罪恶的力量以及取得的胜利都是源自基督。圣经没有教导说基督徒的罪在今世就已经根除，但确实教导我们不再受罪性的辖制。罪的力量和权势已被破除。基督徒领受的恩典使我们得以超脱于这个世界而活着。圣经告诉我们，凡从神生的，绝不犯罪。就像那位小女孩说过的那样，当魔鬼带着诱惑叩门时，她就请主耶稣去应门。
今日祷告
主耶稣啊，我要持续地向你寻求力量，只有你知道我有多少次陷于诱惑之中。
February 8: Power Over Sin
Those who belong to Christ have nailed their natural evil desires to his cross and crucified them there.
—Galatians 5:24 (TLB)
The strength for our conquering and our victory is drawn continually from Christ. The Bible does not teach that sin is completely eradicated from the Christian in this life, but it does teach that sin shall no longer reign over you. The strength and power of sin have been broken. The Christian now has resources available to live above and beyond this world. The Bible teaches that whosoever is born of God does not practice sin. It is like the little girl who said that when the devil came knocking with a temptation, she just sent Jesus to the door.
Prayer for the day:
Lord Jesus, I need Your power continually. You know how many times I am tempted.
