Where the Fight Was Won

I have been studying the New Testament in our Sunday School Class, we are at the point where Pilot has washed his hands of our Savior and turned him over to the Angry Mob! We had been discussing various curiosities like where were all the people that he had healed, could some of them been at the gathering for the Passover, and that if the same situation had occurred a year ago Pilot would have killed the men challenging him on the spot. The one thing that had caught my attention was that everything was as it had to be in order for Gods' will to be carried out.

We often wonder how Jesus could have endured everything he did for our sakes. Many talk about the Victory of the Cross, I suggest to you that the Victory was in the Garden when he defeated the desperate pull of his Flesh! He begged let this Cup Pass From Me! Let this Cup Pass From ME! His flesh was battling for the Victory! His response was NOT my Will FATHER BUT THINE WILL BE DONE!

What God has shown me is that when he won the Victory in the Garden he won that Battle for me as well, and that if I will but die to my flesh I to will have the Victory!

Encouragement for all you Ladies struggling with the FLESH, eating disorders, sexual issues, emotional issues, You fill in the blank. For me personally its eating probably the most noticeable of all in my opinion. You pop a tic-tac if you drink or smoke and maybe for while disguise drug abuse but it does not take long for the piece of Cheese Cake to find its way to my hips for all the world to see.

My Prayer:

Lord give me the in sight and the strength to choose wisely those foods which would edify my body which is a Holy Temple and increase me financially so that I can afford those foods which would be more beneficial to my body and take from me those unhealthy appetites.

For all the ladies that might be reading this who feel they to struggle with body image allow them to know how beautiful and wonderfully they are made that you care for and love them for exactly who they are.

In Jesus Name Amen.
