Addiction
<p><br/></p><p>The Bible admonishes us all not to succumb to our fleshly desires. But here comes an era where every single thing around us triggers us to give in to what our body's wants. </p><p>This era in itself is defiled. It's a polluted environment and the Christian falls almost every minute... This by far is the roughest, muddiest time to stay true to the word of God....</p><p><br/></p><p> Addictions start from somewhere... Until you know the roots, you can't uproot them.</p><p><br/></p><p><strong>Sit, rethink </strong>🤔</p><p><em>What was the first trigger? What was the first experience? What environment enhanced the growth of that habit? What made such an individual go back to it? What sort of satisfaction was that person looking for at that time? </em></p><p><em>What's the feeling after every experience?</em></p><p><br/></p><p> I believe God's still gracious. But I've been taught that God will not descend to give you something you already have. </p><p><br/></p><p>In <strong>Exodus 14:15, </strong><em>the Lord asked Moses, "Why criest thou? Speak unto the people of Israel that they may go forward ".</em></p><p>Moses called unto the Lord but the Lord asked Moses to speak. The Lord Himself had confidence in what was in Moses...</p><p><br/></p><p>This issue is a matter of discipline and engaging in a lot of spiritual exercises, as well as other productive activities like reading or any other thing interesting...</p><p><br/></p><p>Maybe, like Moses, the individual has all it takes to stop him/herself from doing these things...</p><p>I also want to believe people do these things sometimes because they hate themselves.</p><p><br/></p><p><strong>Addictions ain't easy to fight but DISCIPLINE is always the right answer</strong></p><p>May God help us🙏✨.</p>
