SIN

Had begin my new journey of bible study on Genesis with BSF and to do my own study on the 2 books of Kings before i proceed back to the letters of Paul. Haven been able to journal down my thpughts for a while due to some work and struggles. But lets continue what I have started.

A lesson from Eve on how SIN happened
  1. Eve paid attention to listen to the devil
  2. She stir her self desires by looking at the forbidden fruit.
  3. She took the fruit.
  4. She ate the fruit.
  5. And than she gave Adam the fruit to eat.
We must cut sin off as early as possible before it accumulates and spreads on to others as well, the further it goes the harder to rewind. We need to learn to be aware of the voices of the devil, and remove it at once. The first step of mistake that Eve took that eventually lead her to death. And we must learn to trust and obey God in loyalty and not to listen to the devils lies.

Things that i've learned so far from the first 3 chapters:
  1. I am made to enjoy a good relationship with God, not out of obligation.
  2. God gave all of us responsibilities like work, family and church.
  3. It takes the temper and self desire to make us fall into sin.
Somethings that i've learn from my mentor recently that i want to apply deeply into my life:
  1. Have faith to surrander 
  2. The stillness to know God
  3. The silence to hear God
  4. And the sensitivity to obey
Personal prayer:

Lord, i want to obey you all the days of my life. To enjoy your presence and love for me. Help me avoid sin and resist temptation whenever it happens. Allow me to recognize the voice of the devil, and avoid and stop listening to him at all cost. Give me the heart to seek first the Kingdom of God, and these things will be given unto me.

In Jesus name, Amen.
