Sins of the Mind

God is holy and He is pure, He does not tolerate any impurity or any sin and therefore a disciple of Jesus Christ will be pure in every aspect of His life, including His mind. Our minds must be pure, they must be set on Christ. Jesus said that if you look at a woman to desire her, you have already committed adultery in your mind, you are an adulterer. If you get mad at somebody and you wish you could kill him, or hit him you are an aggressor and a murderer in the sight of God. God says: Vengeance is mine, I will repay. We’ve got to be pure in every aspect of our lives. Many people are married and while they are with their partner being intimate, they are fantasizing about somebody else, or they are fantasizing about a celebrity that they saw on the television or in a movie because they defiled their mind with all those things that they gobbled up and therefore they are dirty inside. They are not suitable for the Kingdom of God. We as children of God are a Temple of the Holy Spirit and we’ve got to be pure and holy. God does not live in a filthy Temple and He does not share that Temple with demons. Many Christians have got demons in them, they’ve allowed those demons of lust into them and those demons drive them. They’ve got no control over themselves. Lust for immorality, some were born with immorality, they were born with those demons inside of them and they’ve got to get delivered. But we must become honest dear friends. If we want to follow Jesus, we must be pure and holy. It’s not a matter of putting the blame on somebody, it is a matter of: Am I pure, am I holy? Can I stand with clean Hands and a pure heart before my Lord? Can I live in His presence? Can His Holy Spirit function through me? Am I a clean and a holy vessel or am I defiled by the sins and the impurities of my mind? It is not acceptable for the Kingdom of God. This world allows all kinds of immorality and that is how they catch people. That is how the devil leads you into temptation. If you allow your eyes and your mind to go into those things and to fill you, and then it leads you into sin. But God looks at our hearts, the motive in our heart, He knows our mind. He knows the wickedness of man inside. We’ve got to purify ourselves dear friend, if we want Jesus to live in us, if we want to become one with God. Eternal Life is knowing Jesus Christ and God the Father. And if you want to know Jesus and you want to know God the Father and live with them forever. You’ve got to be pure and holy in every aspect of your life. Your marriage bed must be holy and pure. You must be pure dear friend, no impurity, no lust, no lust for the things of the world but only a pure heart a yearning for Jesus, for the Spirit of God to fill you so that you can be led by the Spirit of God and that He can work through you. We’ve got to be pure and holy friends. We must PURIFY ourselves of every evil of every bad thought and set our mind on Christ. That is what He requires of us. May Jesus bless you.
