How to Stay on Fire for GodExemplo

You must understand that you can only build a fire to the extent that you overcome the excuses of your flesh.

In Acts 28, we read that Paul had many excuses: a wrecked ship, cold weather, rain, and disappointment because God did not deliver him supernaturally from the storm (like Jesus did for his disciples). These excuses could have justified Paul not building a fire, but they didn't.

It's important to recognize that life’s problems are usually temporary. Whatever your issue or struggle is, remember that the rain will stop, and the weather will change. Do not let your flesh make excuses for not building a fire. The Scripture tells us that if we walk in the Spirit, we will not fulfill the desires of the flesh. It does not say if you do not fulfill the lust of the flesh, then you will walk in the Spirit. You can and will conquer the lust of the flesh only by the power of the Holy Spirit.

Don't allow any excuses to keep you from going to the secret place and studying God's Word. Fight against them. Do the opposite of what those emotions are trying to make you do.

Learn to beat your excuses.

Let's Pray:

Heavenly Father, give me the strength to beat excuses and to dominate my body, in order to live according to what You desire. I want to pursue after You with everything that I have.
