One must have discipline and subjection to a living Christ in order to live in this present cold dark world of ungodliness. The ungodly world we live in is getting worse and worse.
Discipline from the Holy Spirit pays off when opportunities such as lust of the flesh arise. The Bible says we live in the world but are not of the world. Christians have power not to yield to the deception of the world, the flesh, and the Devil. Christians come out from among them thus living for and with the Christ who saved and redeemed their lost soul.
Christians can and must draw a line between life in the Spirit and the life of yielding to the flesh. Power to overcome is the fruit of the Gospel that people receive when they get saved. So much is given through the fruit of righteousness. More than enough is given to the child of God to have and maintain the blessed life this side of Heaven.
Christians are overcomers in this life. They are a very blessed people that don’t have to go back to the old life and the old ways. Christ provides what they need to overcome addictions. Christ provides the way, the truth, and the life. To be happy in Jesus is to trust and obey.

About rickroehm
Since 1988 I’ve been writing and doing service for the Lord. It all began in 1987 after a personal walk began with the Lord. This personal walk with the Lord I speak of turned into extensive Bible studies and later evolved into blogging in early 2000. At present I write, author, and publish several different sites on the Internet. My Blogs contain a vast library of Theological writings, teaching videos, and preaching audios that currently go around the globe for the cause of Christ. I write at Christian Blessings on Wordpress, Holy Hubert Lindsey Group on Facebook, Churches on Trial at Google, publish You Tube videos, record sermons at holy.sermon.net, etc. I also pastor a Church called the Upper Room in Williamsburg, Ohio . My secular Blog called Southwestern Ohio Fishing on Wordpress is where I write about experiences with my son and fishing partner Chad where we together enjoy Mother Nature’s beauty mixed with Father God’s creation. At Southwestern Ohio Fishing Blog I also publish favorite recipes for those who enjoy eating and cooking as much as this writer does. Thanks for sharing your time and life with this writer at the Blogs. Here's more access to my ministry and fishing Blog if you'd care to check them out further.
