Thank you Brother Rainey for this vital verse of wisdom shared. Thank you for your wonderful blessed message in real truth. May we take heed to this wake up call and not get caught up with sin nor the wicked things of the world. God provides a way of escape; for 1 Corinthians 10: 13 (NLT) says, The temptations in your life are no different from what others experience, And God is faithful. He will not allow the temptation to be more than you can stand. When you are tempted, he will show you a way out so that you can endure.
May we feed are minds and heart on the things of God. God has graced us with forgiveness of sin. May we keep in mind the sacrifice Jesus made for our sins at the cross. See John 3: 16. Let us not take for granted of God's love, grace, forgiveness and mercy. Remember the things of this world is temporary. Those who practice sin, wicked worldly desires, will not inherit God's kingdom. Sin leads to death.
However, we as believers and followers of Christ, have the wonderful blessed gift of some da, y being in God's presence and of having eternal life. TGBTG! Thank You, Jesus! Praise God! Let Us Magnify His Holy Divine Name!

Psalm 97: 10 (NIV) says, Let those who love the LORD hate evil, for he guards the lives of his faithful ones and delivers them from the hand of the wicked.
Proverbs 8: 13 (NIV) To fear the LORD is to hate evil; I hate pride and arrogance, evil behavior and perverse speech.
Romans 6: 1-4, 12-13, 23 (NIV) says, What shall we say, then? Shall we go on sinning so that grace may increase? (2) By no means! We are those who have died to sin, how can we live in it any longer? (3) Or don't you know that all of us who were baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into his death. (4) We were therefore buried with him through baptism into death in order that, just as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, we too may live a new life. (12) Therefore do not let sin reign in your mortal body so that you obey its evil desires. (13) Do not offer any part of yourself to sin as an instrument of wickedness, but rather offer yourselves to God as those who have been brought from death to life; and offer every part of yourself to him as an instrument of righteousness. (23) For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.
Romans 8: 3-8/12-14 (NIV) says, For what the law was powerless to do because it was weakened by the flesh, God did by sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh to be a sin offering. And so he condemned sin in the flesh, (4) in order that the righteous requirement of the law might be fully met in us, who do not live according to the flesh but according to the Spirit. (5) Those who live according to the flesh have their minds set on what the flesh desires; but those who live in accordance with the Spirit have their minds set on what the Spirit desires. (6) The mind governed by the flesh is death, but the mind governed by the Spirit is life and peace. (7) The mind governed by the flesh is hostile to God; it does not submit to God's law, nor can it do so. (8) Those who are in the realm of the flesh cannot please God. (12) Therefore brothers and sisters, we have an obligation - but it is not to the flesh, to live according to it. (13) For if you live according to the flesh, you will die; but if by the Spirit you put to death the misdeeds of the body, you will live. (14) For those who are led by the Spirit of God are the children of God.
Romans 13: 13-14 (NIV) says, Let us behave decently, as in the daytime, not in carousing and drunkenness, not in sexual immorality and debauchery, not in dissension and jealousy. (14) Rather, clothe yourselves with the Lord Jesus Christ, and do not think about how to gratify the desires of the flesh.
2 Corinthians 1: 20 (NIV) says, For no matter how many promises God has made, they are "Yes" in Christ. And so through him the "Amen" is spoken by us to the glory of God.
2 Corinthians 7: 1 (NIV) says, Therefore, since we have these promises, dear friends, let us purify ourselves from everything that contaminates body and spirit, perfecting holiness out of reverence for God.
Galatians 5: 19-21/ 24-26 (NIV) says, The acts of the flesh are obvious: sexual immorality, impurity and debauchery; (20) idolatry and witchcraft; hatred, discord, jealousy, fits of rage, selfish ambition dissensions, factions (21) and envy; drunkenness, orgies, and the like. I warn you, as I did before, that those who live like this will not inherit the kingdom of God. (24) Those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires. (25) Since we live by the Spirit, let us keep in step with the Spirit. (26) Let us not become conceited, provoking and envying each other.
Galatians 6: 7- 8 (NIV) says, Do not be deceived: God cannot be mocked. A man reaps what he sows.
(8) Whoever sows to please their flesh, will reap destruction; whoever sows to please the Spirit, from the Spirit will reap eternal life.
Ephesians 2: 1-5 (NIV) says, As for you, you were dead in your transgressions and sins, (2) in which you used to live when you followed the ways of this world and of the ruler of the kingdom of the air, the spirit who is now at work in those who are disobedient. (3) All of us also lived among them at one time, gratifying the cravings of the flesh and following its desires and thoughts. Like the rest, we were by nature deserving of wrath. (4) But because of his great love for us, God who is rich in mercy, (5) made us alive with Christ even when we were dead in transgressions- it is by grace you have been saved.
Colossians 3: 5-10 (NIV) says, Put to death, therefore, whatever belongs to your earthly nature: sexual immorality, impurity, lust, evil desires and greed, which is idolatry. (6) because of these, the wrath of God is coming. (7) You used to walk in these ways, in the life you once lived. (8) But now you must also rid yourselves of all such things as these: anger, rage, malice, slander, and filthy language from your lips. (9) Do not lie to each other, since you have taken off your old self with its practices (10) and have put on the new self, which is being renewed in knowledge in the image of its Creator.
1 Peter 1: 14-16, 22-23 (NIV) says, As obedient children, do not conform to the evil desires you had when you lived in ignorance.(15) But just as he who called you is holy, so be holy in all you do, (16) for it is written: "Be holy, because I am holy. (22) Now that you have purified yourselves by obeying the truth so that you have sincere love for each other, love one another deeply, from the heart. (23) For you have been born again, not of perishable seed, but of imperishable, through the living and enduring word of God.
1 Peter 2: 11-12 (NIV) says, Dear friends, I urge you, as foreigners and exiles, to abstain from sinful desires, which wage war against your soul. (12) Live such good lives among the pagans that, though they accuse you of doing wrong, they may see your good deeds and glorify God on the day he visits us.
1 Peter 4: 1, 6 (NIV) says, Therefore, since Christ suffered in his body, arm yourselves also with the same attitude, because whoever suffers in the body is done with sin. (6) For this is the reason the gospel was preached even to those who are now dead, so that they might be judged according to human standards in regard to the body, but live according to God in regard to the spirit.
1 John 2: 15-17 (NIV) says, Do not love the world or anything in the world. If anyone loves the world, love for the Father is not in them. (16) For everything in the world - the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life - comes not from the Father but from the world. (17) The world and its desires pass away, but whoever does the will of God lives forever.
Jude 1: 17-21 (NIV) says, But, dear friends, remember what the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ foretold.
(18) They said to you, "in the last times there will be scoffers who will follow their own ungodly desires."
(19) These are the people who divide you, who follow mere natural instincts and do not have the Spirit.
(20) But you, dear friends, by building yourselves up in your most holy faith and praying in the Holy Spirit,
(21) keep yourselves in God's love as you wait for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ to bring you to eternal life.
