Titus 3:3 For at one time we too were foolish, disobedient, misled, enslaved to all sorts of desires and pleasures, living in malice and envy, hateful, and hating one another.
As a snake pops it head up through a hole in the ground so can our “flesh” because of our sinful nature.
Born again or not it, is a constant struggle to drown our evil desires.
What sets you off? An aggressive driver? A pushy shopper? A disrespectful spouse or child? A nosy coworker?
We all have our hot buttons!
Titus 3:3 shows what we were like before salvation, before grace, but don’t let Satan win by whispering in your ear at an opportune time! He would love to see you curse God and die. Like Job’s wife had told her husband.
Don’t revert back to your old self. Instead when you feel the old self bubbling to the surface, pray!
Pray and thank God for His grace and watch how fast the old self buries itself.
Blessings, David
