SELF CONTROL

The same was accused of John The Baptist and Jesus. John, what with his relentless screaming from the wilderness about REPENTANCE: And then there was Jesus shouting and overturning tables in the temple.


Lack of self control, as many, including myself, are accused who sound the trumpet according to God’s instructions of Isaiah 58:1, is not defned as one who lifts their voice and shouts loudly in public places, telling others about their sins - That's actually the correct way to honor God. The text below outlines for us the lack of self control that dishonors God, with the very first being adultery/sexual immorality; but nobody wants to hear that. [Ezekiel 2:3-8]

Galatians 5:18-21 But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the law. The acts of the flesh are obvious: sexual immorality, impurity and debauchery; idolatry and witchcraft; hatred, discord, jealousy, fits of rage, selfish ambition, dissensions, factions and envy; drunkenness, orgies, and the like. I warn you, as I did before, that those who live like this will not inherit the kingdom of God.


Why do you continue to rebuke me? It's not even like I'm slicing anyone's ear off or cussing anybody out; I'm just preaching the message of REPENTANCE out here in these streets, as commanded. Note, never are Christ's disciples commanded to live on the streets, Jesus simply prophesied that that's how man, being wicked, would mistreat His messengers. It's how He predicted a city would treat His disciples; not how a city should treat them.

Dear Lord, control my life, my thoughts all my ideas and desire. I want to live a life that please the Lord. All self control we have was given by the Lord to all of us. Let us all give it back to Jesus and may He will lead our life till we reach the shores of everlasting life in glory.
