SPIRITUALLY LAZY!

“He staggered not at the promise of God through unbelief; but was strong in faith, giving glory to God;”
Romans 4:20 KJV
http://bible.com/1/rom.4.20.kjv 
Sometimes we struggle with sin. In fact, this is one of the main issues lots of Christians have. They still struggle with sin. As a Christian, you should not struggle with sin. But, before you become a Christian, you must get deliverance and be properly free from sin. Because if you become a Christian without getting delivered from demons, it cannot and will not work. But those that have deliverance or don't need it, they do not have to struggle with sin anymore. So if you struggle with sin that is my suggestion. 
But sin isn't our only problem. Christians also struggle because they are very relaxed in the spirit. I like to call them, spiritually lazy. It's true! They are not alive in the spirit, but satan is, and is always watching for your weak moment. He then attacks us, so easily. Many of us don't go to church but call ourselves Christians. A Christian MUST go to church. Hebrews 10:25 says: “Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another: and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching.”
Hebrews 10:25 KJV
http://bible.com/1/heb.10.25.kjv 
Part of our spiritual laziness is not being prayerful. We don't pray as often as we should. Haven't you read 1 Peter 5:8? “Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour:”
1 Peter 5:8 KJV
http://bible.com/1/1pe.5.8.kjv 
Another part of our spiritual laziness is we have too little of the Word in our spirits. We think that Christianity is just going to church. A church goer is not a Christian! Be vigilant! But a Christian must go to church! 

Stop being spiritually lazy!

What makes faith work? Learn MORE about faith in this devotional...

"That according to the riches of His glory, He may grant you to be strengthened with power through His Spirit in your inner being, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith..." - Ephesians 3:16-17 KJV Okay. I wanted to talk a little bit more on faith. When Paul writes 'dwell in your hearts through faith' what does it mean? This means that we have to show our confidence and belief in Christ, before He comes into our hearts. He knows when we want to trick Him or not. So don't bother being cunning! Because wisdom comes from the Lord! So, if our human efforts cannot make faith to work, what can? (Zechariah 4:6) Our confidence and belief in Jesus! We just have to say, "Jesus, take care of this for me. I don't want to any more. I can't do it by my own power." Acknowledging that you can't do it alone, gives you the first step forward. Then comes the hard bit. When I mean hard, I mean HARD. Because most people people fall away aft...

Why remain pure? Learn about pureness in this amazing devotional....

Key = Blue = Scripture  Red = Answers to questions  Green = Verses to read in your spare time. Black = Normal post Bold = Question  "Call unto Me, and I will answer you, and show you great and mighty things, which you do not know." - Jeremiah 33:3.  Many people either don't believe in God, or become atheists, partly because of this question: Why doesn't God answer some of my prayers?  Answer: This is because of your heart. Before you ask this question you must ask yourself, am I pure? Have I sinned by mistake and need forgiveness? Or are my thoughts starting to make my light darken? Ask yourself these questions and their surely will be an answer.  But why must I ask myself these questions?  " So flee youthful passions and pursue righteousness, faith, love, and peace, along with those who call on the Lord from a pure heart" - 2 Timothy 2:22    If we are not thinking good thoughts or have sinned by mistake or not, we have sta...

Humble Is Best!

Direct my footsteps according to your Word; let no sin rule over me. Psalm 119:133  |  NIV   We need to let God's Word rule our lives, directing our footsteps on our journey through life. God is our Director leading us-even of the path LOOKS right, it doesn't mean it IS right. God knows best so we shouldn't be no-it-alls. Humble your self!
