God's Divine Power

His divine power has given us everything we need for life and godliness through our knowledge of Him who has called us by His own glory and goodness (2 Peter 1:3).

Why do I try to overcome any sin on my own? This is a question I ask myself from time to time because I have tried and failed many times. The problem was that instead of looking to God's grace for help, I thought I could handle it without Him. What a mistake that was!! Instead of overcoming, I would get even more entangled in sin. The only way out is through Jesus Christ. I have to allow Him to work in me. That does not mean that I don't have work to do, but the work is much easier with Jesus leading me instead of me leading Him.

I am thankful that God's divine power has given me everything I need for overcoming any sin. If I have God, I have all I need. He is all-sufficient!!
