LIFE'S RULE -- NO VACUUM

LIFE'S RULE -- NO VACUUM


Speaking to a large audience, D.L. Moody held up a glass and asked, "How can I get the air out of this glass?"

One man shouted, "Suck it out with a pump!" Moody replied, "That would create a vacuum and shatter the glass."

After numerous other suggestions Moody smiled, picked up a pitcher of water, and filled the glass. "There," he said, "all the air is now removed."

He then went on to explain that victory in the Christian life is not accomplished by "sucking out a sin here and there," but by being filled with the Holy Spirit.

The point is, unless you're filled with the Holy Spirit, you'll continue to struggle with sins.

Every day, as soon as you wake up, meditate and study a verse of the scriptures. This way you're grooming yourself for a victorious day with Christ.

Scripture study and confession is powerful beyond measure. It reinforces who you are and who your God is. And that's how to have a victorious Christian life.


Also, armed with the word of God, you will boast in the Lord and you will not give the devil any room to operate in your mind.

If you have not started or inconsistent in your study of the scriptures, do not allow the enemy to come and sow tares among your wheat, and continues his journey of destruction in Jesus name.

When Christ was tempted, the only response He did was to recite God's Word. And that's more than enough to rebuke the devil.

Now it's your turn to win your own spiritual battles through confessing the word, studying the word and doing as the word instructs.
