When I Sin
by Keith Hoffman
When I sin, I
do what I want to do rather than what He wants me to do.
put myself above God.
distance myself from the Father.
damage my relationship with Him.
damage my relationship with others.
grieve the Father.
hurt others.
act as if I can make it on my own without God.
assume on God’s grace.
am on the path to destruction.
discount God’s judgment.
over-value momentary pleasures.
sow seeds of sin into the lives of my children.
block the flow of blessings from the Father.
cut myself off from fellowship with Him.
cannot be used by God.
jeopardize His plans for my life.
sow seeds that will produce a harvest.
make it easier to sin again.
dull my conscience.
forfeit my reward in heaven.
choose death instead of life.
trample the Holy Spirit.
say “no” to fellowship with God.
love my sin more than I love Jesus.
have been deceived.
am responsible.
cannot approach the throne boldly.
bring guilt and shame into my life.
become a slave to sin.
turn away from the freedom from sin Jesus purchased with His blood.
trample on the blood of Christ.
am unclean.
cannot serve as priest to my family.
cannot speak to my family on the behalf of God.
live a lie.
will eventually be found out.
feed the flesh.
will be forgiven when I repent.
will be restored when I return to the Father.
