the battle
December 13, 2009just came back from yc and of course i learnt so many lessons. i want to remember them and i already set up my goals in a list in my head. so i’m going to write them now, for real!
this year’s conference theme was FREED. initial thoughts about it was okay good, i really need a strong wake up call like a 5 day camp to give me tips on how to be freed from my sins. after the conference i realised it was much more than that. yc started off very demoralisingly. i realised that i was spiritually blind, and i realised that i was suffering from certain sins that i didn’t even know of! so of course i was scared and i prayed that God would open my eyes. i needed to be an overcomer of my sins. an overcomer takes the worst of life’s testings and is still not defeated. who wouldn’t want to be an overcomer? i’m sick of my sins.
to be freed of this bondage that sin has bound me to, to be able to break the cord that is preventing me from running back to Christ, I need to identify my sins. it’s in my notebook, they’re kinda personal. [but someday i hope to be able to testify that i have overcome them]
then i need to stop focusing on them. i need to focus on the Lordship of God, and the abundant life He has prepared for me. Christ meant me to live a life that is a light, where I can be protected, be fruitful in good works and deeds, and have a special sense of joy in my heart despite bad happenings. why do i want to waste my life away by continuing in my sins? I don’t want to be a slave to satan. i want to abide in God.
starting now every day, i am going to read the bible and write down a lesson that i am going to hold dear to me the whole day. hopefully as this becomes a part of my life, i will learn more and more about the image of God, and what it means to follow in the example of Jesus. my goal for 2010 is to be able to abide in God’s word, and apply it in my life. a practical way would be to memorise verses from the bible, which will help me in making decisions, dealing with sin problems and having joy and strength each day. i want to be a part of God’s army, to fight as a warrior against the evil one, who constantly makes us feel afraid of dying. i want to pick up the armour of God and confront the enemy. to do this i have to be familiar with the bible, and to know God’s plan for me.
today i completed a battle plan and it will be on my mirror in my room which was old but now is new!
