We often struggle with sinful habits, knowing what's right but failing to act. Recognizing our weaknesses, we can rely on the strength of the Holy Spirit to withstand temptation and find security in Christ, who promises eternal life and protection from harm.

Welcome to the Days of Praise podcast, a daily devotional by the Institute for Creation Research. A debtor to grace. For I know that in me, that is, in my flesh, dwelleth no good thing, for to will is present with me, but how to perform that which is good I find not. Romans 7, 18. All too often we find ourselves as frustrated as the Apostle Paul in that we often know to do the right thing, to abstain from a particular sin, but we quickly fall right back into that sin.
We must daily recognize our sinful habits and determine in our hearts with strength from the Holy Spirit to withstand the sin and overcome temptation. I thank God through Jesus Christ our Lord.
So then, with the mind, I myself serve the law of God, but with the flesh the law of sin. the writer of Come Thou Fought had the same frustration. O to grace how great a debtor daily I'm constrained to be, Let thy goodness, like a fetter, bind my wandering heart to thee. Prone to wander, Lord I feel it. Prone to leave the God I love.
Here's my heart O take and seal it, Seal it for thy courts above Scripture tells us we are secure in Christ, never to be separated. Christ informed his disciples that my sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me, and I give unto them eternal life, and they shall never perish. Neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand. My father which gave them me is greater than all, and no man is able to pluck them out of my father's hand. we are safe in Christ's hand, surrounded by the Father's hand and then the transaction is sealed by the Holy Spirit of God, whereby ye are sealed unto the day of redemption.
Take courage. We are secure in Him. If you've enjoyed today's devotional, be sure to subscribe wherever you listen to podcasts. And please rate and review so more listeners can find us. To support ICR's ministry, visit icr.org/slash donate.
