Backsliding

If your knowledge of the Bible, the "Word of God" exceeds your obedience to the Bible, the "Word of God", you are backsliding! In other words, if you know what God says in His Word, yet choose not to do it, you are in sin.
Change your ways and renew your mind by the washing of the Word, and see the Goodness of God spring forth. Amen.
Being a doer of the Word is more than going to Church. It's living a life where Christ...The Anointing is allowed to control your actions.
I have a hard time believing Jesus is hanging out smoking cigarettes and over indulging on alcohol, swearing, and living as the world. Jesus died to give you His Spirit, to live in you and freely give you access to His Kingdom. His Rule and Reign must be visible through us, His Kingdom must be reality in our actions.
We as a "believer" must reflect the Heavenly realms of Glory outwardly, so people see Jesus, not a double minded person, or worse, a fake religious person.
God is looking for warriors, not actors.
Jesus died to set us free from sin. His free Grace is not a license to sin, but His free Grace is to overcome sin.
One of the definitions of Grace is "God's ability to overcome any situation." We win by using His Power, not our own. We must believe, have faith that what He did for us, has made us NEW CREATIONS. We must have faith that His Word is True, not just a good idea. If we magnify sin, indulging ourselves in a less than Godly lifestyle, we have failed to believe and take hold of the more of God and His Goodness towards. We have effectively nullified the work of the Cross by our unbelief. We hold fast to our lifestyle choices, and mock God.
Heb 4:2 For unto us was the gospel preached,as well as unto them: but the word preached did not profit them, not being mixed with faith in them that heard it.
Let us take hold of the word and declare it over our circumstances, over our addictions, over our lives, until they change and everything aligns with the promises of God.
God has promised to renew our mind by His Word. Read it, speak it, until His Word and His Holy Spirit gains the throne over our lives.
This is the Way, Jesus gained wisdom and favour with both God and man.
I pray for breakthrough for each one who takes the time to read this, be free in Jesus Name.
Amen
