Every contract has a line with those words underneath indicating the place where you sign and enter into a binding agreement. Before contracts, men gave their word alone, sealing their commitment with a handshake. An agreement meant something to everyone involved. That is still true.

July 13, 2019 – I’ve spent a lot of my life stuck in the struggle between walking in the flesh and walking in the Spirit. With good intentions, I have been taught that sin is appealing. That’s why we give in to it so easily. The problem with that line of thinking is that it creates an unintended agreement that brings us back or enslaves us to our sin. Things like, “If it didn’t bring pleasure, we wouldn’t do it,” may seem right on the surface, but the idea creates a bond with sin that we don’t need in our lives. That bond must be broken, once and for all, in order for us to truly walk in freedom with the Spirit. Not only must I see that sin is wrong, but that there is NO PLEASURE in it at all. That kind of pleasure comes at too great a cost.

Once again, Satan’s name means deceiver. He and his demons are master salesmen when it comes to sin. Think how easily an advertisement gets stuck in your head. Whether it’s true or not, we can repeat it word for word, and before too long, we sign the agreement to make the purchase. Son, this is something you can’t afford. The cost is too great. Sin does not bring pleasure. Sin brings death and separation from God. That’s all.
