Whatever we slip into, we are slaves to. We do not want to go there, yet we visit! We should stop this.

It can be binge watching. It can be heavy social media usage. It can be envy. It can be laziness. Being disorganized. It can be pornography. It can be black sliding. Poor time management.

Whatever displeases Jesus we need to stop. A daily Bible reading is a starting place.

Yes, as a Christian with active faith in Jesus Christ our Lord who was crucified to death and was resurected by the power of God victory is already ours.

Right from every battle to the greatest wars, our victory is a done deal. Our victory means we have guaranteed eternal life. Our seating is a huge upgrade – an upgrade beyond imagination – we are seated in heavenly places. We are seated in the throne room of God along with Jesus Christ, God’s begotten son and our Lord and Saviour.

In this interesting passage in the Gospel of Mark we see the disciples rebuking those who were trying to bring children to get Jesus to touch them. Jesus corrected his disciples.

13 Then they brought little children to Him, that He might touch them; but the disciples rebuked those who brought them. 14 But when Jesus saw it, He was greatly displeased and said to them, “Let the little children come to Me, and do not forbid them; for of such is the kingdom of God. 15 Assuredly, I say to you, whoever does not receive the kingdom of God as a little child will by no means enter it.” 16 And He took them up in His arms, laid His hands on them, and blessed them. (Mark 10:13-16 NKJV)
