Beat My Body

Discipline. The word even sounds tough.

No one wants discipline, we like things easy. It's our nature. But we need to be disciplined, we need self-control.

Someone in church speaks before they think and you.......

You're dieting, and you get that craving for candy or a soda.

You're watching a soap opera or a movie, and a sexual image appears.

You see something you know that's not a Christian, and pride starts to swell in you. Your mouth starts to open....

We give in too easy.

Somethings we can't control our body. Paul says that he beat his body to keep himself from sinning- 1 Corinthians 9:27. But we don't want to do that; it's too hard.

We need to train ourselves to control and discipline our flesh. It's not us or our spirit that sins, but our flesh.

Be in control.
