DON'T BE DRUNK

Romans 13:14

But let the Lord Jesus Christ take control of you, and don't think of ways to indulge your evil desires.

Our evil desires and action are what brings trouble upon our lives. Peter L. Ream of Home Life once wrote that, “If alcoholism is a disease, it is a disease that we approved; a disease that is licensed to propagate; a disease that is sold and promotes crime; it is habit-forming; a disease that is spread by advertising approved by the government; and a disease that is given as a Christmas present.” Paul said in Ephesians 5:18, “Don't be drunk with wine, because that will ruin your life. Instead, let the Holy Spirit fill and control you.” The reality is quite stark that the ways of the world can truly ruin you and all the blessings that are meant for you. Trust and obey the Holy Word and let Jesus take control of your life.
