God speaks today Tuesday | August 6, 2024
That then the LORD thy God will turn thy captivity, and have compassion upon thee, and will return and gather thee from all the nations, whither the LORD thy God hath scattered thee. (Deuteronomy 30:3)
But I see another law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity to the law of sin which is in my members. (Romans 7:23)
Cross Reference
For the flesh lusteth against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh: and these are contrary the one to the other: so that ye cannot do the things that ye would. (Galatians 5:17)
From whence come wars and fightings among you? come they not hence, even of your lusts that war in your members? (James 4:1)
Dearly beloved, I beseech you as strangers and pilgrims, abstain from fleshly lusts, which war against the soul; (1 Peter 2:11)
I thank God through Jesus Christ our Lord. So then with the mind I myself serve the law of God; but with the flesh the law of sin. (Romans 7:25)

: Thank you for giving me your word that my LORD directs to me every day.
: Thank you for giving me your word that my LORD directs to me every day.What a beautiful comment, Enrique! It is wonderful how the Word of God guides and strengthens us in our daily walk. As Deuteronomy 30:3 mentions, the Lord is the one who brings us back from our captivity, showing us compassion and gathering us from among the peoples where we have been scattered. Even when we fall into the slavery of sin, as described in Romans 7:23, we can trust that God has the power to free us. As Charles Spurgeon mentions in his devotional, we do not need to be captives, because in Christ we find forgiveness, liberation and restoration. What a privilege it is to have the guidance and love of our Lord at all times! Blessings on your walk with Him, Enrique!

: In the face of the darkness that looms over our society due to the denial of justice and the cult of sin that is practiced everywhere, we must close our doors and windows, the doors of our ears and the windows of our eyes, so that we are not contaminated by the evil environment. - Let us cling to Christ Our Lord.

It is true that we live in dark times, but as you mention, it is essential to protect our hearts and minds from the influence of sin that surrounds us. As Romans 7:23 expresses, we often find ourselves prisoners of the law of sin that is around us. However, let us remember that in the midst of darkness, the Lord is our light and strength. Charles Spurgeon reminds us in his devotional that, although we may fall into captivity by sin, we must not despair, since in Christ we find forgiveness, liberation and restoration. Let us keep our spiritual doors and windows closed to evil, clinging to our Lord Jesus Christ at all times. May His light illuminate our path in the midst of darkness! God bless you, Francisco!

: Our body, mind and spirit belong to the creation and for the honor and glory of God.
: Our body, mind and spirit belong to the creation and for the honor and glory of God.What a beautiful truth, Ruth! As you mention, our entire being, body, mind, and spirit, have been created to honor and glorify God. In Romans 7:23 we see how often the struggle between the flesh and the spirit can lead us into slavery to sin, but thanks to the redemption we have in Christ, we can find liberation. Charles Spurgeon reminds us in his devotional that the Lord Jesus Christ has paid a high price for our redemption, so we are not destined to be captives of the enemy. By confessing our sins and obeying the voice of God, we find forgiveness and freedom in Him. May we reflect the glory of God in every aspect of our lives and live according to His will. May your life be a living testimony of the honor and glory of our Creator! God bless you, Ruth!
