Most believers live as if they have already lost the victory, particularly when it comes to living above sin.
Many people are still bound by immorality, which explains why they constantly feel defeated.
But what is the reality? Well, the reality is that we are not defeated!
Let us dive into the scriptures.
Rom 6:14 (KJV) For sin shall not have dominion over you: for ye are not under the law, but under grace.
This is unequivocally stated!
For sin shall not have dominion….
How more reassuring can it sound?
Let’s explore other translations.
Read the various versions to allow the revelations of victory over sin to sink in.
(AMPC) For sin shall not [any longer] exert dominion over you…
(CEV) Don’t let sin keep ruling your lives…
(GNB) Sin must not be your master…
(GW) Certainly, sin shouldn’t have power over you…
(MSG) Sin can’t tell you how to live…
(TPT) Remember this: sin will not conquer you…
(Yoruba OCB) Nítorí ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ kì yóò tún ní ipá lórí yín mọ́…
The significance of this scripture lies in the fact that you possess the power to control sin, particularly sexual sins!
The next time you encounter a temptation, remember that you don’t have to succumb or yield to it!
You don’t give in to something you have already conquered!
You are not the conquered; you are the conqueror!
Sin attempts to dictate your life, impose its will upon you, and insist on what you should and shouldn’t do.
But The Message Translation of that verse says;
(MSG) Sin can’t tell you how to live…
I absolutely adore that!
Jesus guides me towards a righteous life, not towards sin.
I don’t have to succumb to the allure or the manipulations of sin.
You are no longer defeated by sin. You are no longer a weakling when it comes to resisting the natural inclinations of the flesh and the temptations of sin.
You are in control, and God is with you!
Good morning!
