Kill IT

Kill Kill Kill It
What are we to really kill? We are to kill our habits, character, addictions, traits, all in all I am telling us to kill your old self.
Kill those things which have been associated with you to the world so that you can enjoy the new kind of life you are meant to live in Jesus Christ.
Jesus was a man of unquestionable character, he lived a life free of addiction, he was blameless and faultless yet he still killed his self so as to be a part of a greater glory.. So for he who drinks, smoke, fornicate, spite, hate, backbite, envy, lust, and take part in other form of indulgence and still wish to be a part of the great glory to be revealed... Kill yourself today and be resurrected into a new life which Christ has offered for us all at calvary...
You can't kill yourself alone neither will you still give up your oldself to be killed if you are still attached to the things of this world.
The only way you can help to kill your old self is to stay away from sin and that can only happen when we yield not to temptation... It all starts from an Ill thought before it metamorphosis into something serious....
So while its still at the thought level, kill it. While its still enticing you to partake in it... Kill it.
While its still luring you to come before it floors you... Kill it.
While its still looking good to behold... Kill it..
Because even giving it a chance in your head and mind alone is a sin...
A popular hymn says
1. Yield not to temptation, For yielding is sin; Each vict’ry will help you, Some other to win; Fight valiantly onward, Evil passions subdue; Look ever to Jesus, He will carry you through. Refrain: Ask the Savior to help you, Comfort, strengthen and keep you; He is willing to aid you, He will carry you through.
 2 Shun evil companions, Bad language disdain; God’s name hold in rev’rence, Nor take it in vain; Be thoughtful and earnest, Kindhearted and true; Look ever to Jesus, He will carry you through.
When we yield not to sin... We are starving it to death gradually.
So learn to starve your heart of sinful thoughts, opinions and idea.
