Rest & War: Struggle Well

Jesus' decisive victory against the enemy has freed us up for the fight against sin in our lives. So how can we struggle well?
This week we're continuing in our new series, a four-week journey through some of the principles that Pastor Ben explores in his brand new book, Rest & War! Because of what Jesus has done, we are able to be victors instead of victims. But first we have to shift our perspective on how to struggle against temptation. What does it look like for the followers of Jesus to have our beliefs shape our behaviors instead of chasing after the temptations and desires of the world?
Key Verses // James 1:14-18

Jesus manifests obedience through me. I don't commit certain sins anymore. I used to run my life around them. I now realize more and more the enemy that is sin. It crawls over me, covering me like skin. Jesus dresses us in white robs. I aim at righteousness. I do not lust like I used to, I don't have murderous thoughts like I used to. For the sin that lead to those thoughts comes from my attention. Every second without directing my attention at Jesus, is sin. Pray always. Let the holy spirit guide you always. Listen for his voice always. Meditate on his word always. Love your neighbor always. Look to Jesus always. This is the aim. This is the desire that Jesus gives me, upon revealing himself to me. No one can want this unless Jesus gives them this want, this aim. No one can act on this want unless Jesus gives you the ability to act on it. Depend on him. Or you will see the world and will be completely convinced that it is Jesus. It is not, Jesus is the only one who can show you this. Pray.

Very encouraging. Thank you!

How come you guys no longer include the bible reading that happens right before the message? I always found that helpful. Keep up the good work.

[@charlesschuyler2732]

Where is this past Sunday's message? I don't get this church's set up. They took the whole Christmas season off and the New Year! I don't know of any churches that take a complete hiatus like this.

[@kimberlykane7065]

So many now are randomly teaching and have other priorities... No consistency I can figure out it appears.
