That ye put off concerning the former conversation the old man, which is corrupt according to the deceitful lusts. — Ephesians 4:22 KJV
You were taught, with regard to your former way of life, to put off your old self, which is being corrupted by its deceitful desires. — Ephesians 4:22 NIV
Bible Verse Reflection
Each of us gave our hearts to God, and our old self was crucified with Christ when we became Christians. Jesus reminds us to surrender daily. It is time to set aside our sinful lives and live in obedience to God’s grace. Let’s start the new year by making it our spiritual habit of consciously offering ourselves to God and living joyfully under His lordship each day.
My Prayer
Heavenly Father, I desire to worship You and resist the temptations from the enemy. Your Spirit, please empower me and take my heart with Your grace. Help me to live every day for You. I pray in Jesus mighty name. Amen.
