[John 1:12-14 KJV] “But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name: [13] Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God. [14] And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth”.

The Bible tells us that it is impossible to live godly in this dark and sinful world without the power of God. And it also tells us that God gives power to those who believe in Him to be able to live godly in a dark and sinful world.

The three simple truth that will help each of us to live godly in this dark and sinful world are:

1. Admit the fact that we have all sinned and come short of the glory of God:

Admit that without the reception of fresh power, we cannot live a godly life in this crooked and perverse generation.

2. Acknowledge that the rewards and wages of continuing in our sinful and indulgent lifestyles is death:

The wages of sin is death. Many people are not striving to stop their lives of sin because they are ignorant of the repurssions of sin and indulgence.

3. Totally yield your will to the Lord’s control:

The Lord can never influence you until you have totally yielded to Him. To believe in your heart and confess with your mouth that Jesus Christ is the Son of God, who died and rose again to give us access to the grace of God. In fact, we have access to this grace by faith. We have to believe to recieve. Your faith gives you access to grace that empowers you for a godly life;

[Romans 5:1-2 KJV] “Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ: [2] By whom also we have access by faith into this grace wherein we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God”.

I pray that you recieve the grace to live godly in this sinful and dark world. May you recieve the grace and power and truth to live godly in this sinful and dark world. You will not mess up your life. You will shine with glory and honour and dignity. Be blessed!

I love you;
