Evil Desire Gives Birth To Sin - 2 Samuel 12:11-14 (NIV)

Scripture of the Day
2 Samuel 11:2-5 (NIV)
"Evil Desire Gives Birth To Sin"

One evening David got up from his bed and walked around on the roof of the palace. From the roof he saw a woman bathing. The woman was very beautiful, and David sent someone to find out about her. The man said, “Isn’t this Bathsheba, the daughter of Eliam and the wife of Uriah the Hittite?” Then David sent messengers to get her. She came to him, and he slept with her. (She had purified herself from her uncleanness.) Then she went back home. The woman conceived and sent word to David, saying, “I am pregnant.”

    A man once told me that he keeps falling into sin! James 1:13-15 tells us that we are tempted by our own evil desire, then dragged away and enticed! And after desire has conceived, it gives birth to sin!  Therefore, we give into our own evil desire and allow ourselves to be dragged away and enticed!  We don't just fall into sin!  It starts in our heart as a desire!  We all have thoughts that entice us, but when we feel ourselves being dragged away, we should ask GOD to kill it, and then cry out,  "LORD save me!" 
 
     I don't usually walk around stepping on my own toes, but just like many other SODs . . . I have to say "Ouch!" to this one!  It seems like enticement is everywhere!  It’s not just the sexual stuff that gets us!  Some of us are enticed by the "New Car Smell", big T.V., bigger house, more money . . . and the list goes on and on!  Regardless of which one, they all can drag us into sin! "LORD save us!"

The War of the Flesh is not a myth! It is real, it is everywhere, and it is against everyone! This is why we must have each other's back! When I am over taken, you come rescue me! And when you are over taken, I will come and rescue you! We both are being watched over by the LORD, for this is how HE wants HIS children to treat each other! I am always praying for our families, especially the husbands and fathers! Satan wants us destroyed in the worst way! I pray for the wives and mothers too, because satan wants the woman to feel alone, worthless, and abandon! Then he tries to convince her that she doesn't need anyone. Not a man, nor GOD!

Families must pray together and stay together to stand against the War of the Flesh! May the LORD strengthen us all!
