Romans 6:1-11 WWJD?

Believers Are Dead to Sin, Alive to God

     1What shall we say then? Are we to continue in sin so that grace may increase? 2May it never be! How shall we who died to sin still live in it? 3Or do you not know that all of us who have been baptized into Christ Jesus have been baptized into His death? 4Therefore we have been buried with Him through baptism into death, so that as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, so we too might walk in newness of life. 5For if we have become united with Him in the likeness of His death, certainly we shall also be in the likeness of His resurrection, 6knowing this, that our old self was crucified with Him, in order that our body of sin might be done away with, so that we would no longer be slaves to sin; 7for he who has died is freed from sin.
     8Now if we have died with Christ, we believe that we shall also live with Him, 9knowing that Christ, having been raised from the dead, is never to die again; death no longer is master over Him. 10For the death that He died, He died to sin once for all; but the life that He lives, He lives to God. 11Even so consider yourselves to be dead to sin, but alive to God in Christ Jesus.


When you accept Jesus Christ in your life and are baptized the Holy Spirit comes into you to guide you and be your conscience. 
When the old you fights inside with the new spiritual you which one do you feed? Do you listen to the Holy Spirit? 
The old you has died to sin and the new you is a new creation. When you find yourself at the crossroad of sin, ask yourself what would Jesus do? WWJD?
And if you know the answer then turn that direction and all will be well. 
"so consider yourselves to be dead to sin, but alive to God in Christ Jesus."

Dear Heavenly Father I pray for us because we struggle time to time with our old self and with sin. Guide us with the Holy Spirit to do Your will and to turn from sin. Remind us, WWJD. Help us be more like Him. Use us be a shining example.
In Jesus name I pray.

Blessings, David
