Living for Christ is to live free from sin.How?

Text:Micah 7:18-19, Philippians 2:13 Many of us believers are struggling to live for Christ daily all to no avail.Integrity or freedom from sin is the key to abundant life and prosperity.I've tried to pray this besetting sin out and I have failed!I've tried to read the Bible,but my mind keeps wandering away!I've tried to get rid of this evil or bad habits, but it keeps coming back!If this describes you, you are not alone, and do not feel condemn.Jesus has the solution for you today. A servant of God asked the Lord; what can I do to please you?The Lord answered, My greatest pleasure is when you allow me to do the work.(Philippians 2:13). So to please God , He wants us to pray the prayer He wants to hear on this matter:Lord, I can't do it, You will have to do the work."Paul's solution to his struggle wth sin in Romans 7:14,18,24-25 was to turn it over to Christ.Turn that struggle with sin, sickness,family turmoil, debt to Jesus, because He is the only One Who can subdue it.(Micah 7:18-19).You will never be able to solve your problems; quit trying and surrender to the Spirit of Christ, your Comforter and Helper,alleluia. If you do this, you will be transformed and will discover how easy it is to live for Christ. Jesus is inviting the habitual sinner or carnal believer still in adultery, drug use, strife, complaining, murmuring or any other besetting sin :"Come unto me, give the sins, iniquities to me and let me subdue them and exchange them for my burden which is light and my yoke which is easy. I paid for them with My precious blood.(Matthew 11:28-30,Ephesians 1:7) As soon as the motion of sin comes to you, give them to Jesus and give Him thanks for taking them from you.Do it as often as it comes, and the unclean seducing spirits behind the sins will have to go forever.Also Also violently resist and cast out the devils luring and deceiving you into sinning, and the Egyptian you saw a moment ago , you will not find them anymore. Alleluia , glory to God and praises and honor to our Lord Jesus Christ and our precious Holy Spirit, our senior Partner in the journey of life. God bless you richly as you do what the Lord says to enjoy the abundant life which is rightfully yours. yours.
