Though this may not hold true for all, many in the Body of Christ have
attributes and traits that must be overcome. The Christian’s life is to be
characterized by moral uprightness and godly character; however, there are
times when old ways, habits, and traits surface.
Like Moses’ outbursts of anger in the wilderness (he broke the
tablets, he called Israel “rebels), Christians have outbursts of the flesh.
And it came to pass, as soon as he came nigh unto the camp, that he
saw the calf, and the dancing: and Moses' anger waxed hot, and he cast the
tables out of his hands, and brake them beneath the mount. Ex 32:19 (KJV)
Moses
was called the meekest man on the earth, yet his outbursts of anger stopped him
from entering into Canaan. Today, look at your life. Are there areas where you
still have “outbursts?” If so, come to God in faith knowing that He will help
you to overcome all things, even if the main thing is yourself.
Prayer of the Week
:
“I
thank you for your patience with me. I trust that you will help me with
overcoming areas of weakness in my life. Amen”
