Whosoever committeth sin transgresseth also the law: for sin is the transgression of the law.
And ye know that he was manifested to take away our sins; and in him is no sin.
Whosoever abideth in him sinneth not: whosoever sinneth hath not seen him, neither known him.
Little children, let no man deceive you: he that doeth righteousness is righteous, even as he is righteous.
He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil.
Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for his seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God.
In this the children of God are manifest, and the children of the devil: whosoever doeth not righteousness is not of God, neither he that loveth not his brother.
Prayer
Father, I know that for me to maintain my relationship with you, I must obey you and be like you.
Sin has to be far away from me. When I sin it indicates I am behaving like someone who has not had an encounter with you. I am saying that the devil owes me. That is certainly not so.
As I ask for forgiveness, I also say let your spirit in me help me.
As you sent Jesus to come to this world to destroy the works of the devil, let every hold of the devil over my life in any area whatsoever be destroyed now in Jesus’ name.
I determine that your seed will remain in me because I am born of you and the world at large will know that I am your child.
Your righteousness will continue to show in me and I will love my brother.
Thank you for continuing to steer me in the right direction.
Thank you for Jesus. Amen
