The Spirit of Self-Control


“We must have a spirit of power towards the enemy, a spirit of love towards men, and a spirit of self-control towards ourselves.”

Watchman Nee (1903-1972)

 

Power, love and self-control — working together for good.

 

Good morning, Lord. How many times each day do I make choices that don’t reflect Your truth? Too many! I get distracted by the enemy’s whispers, or I look at others with envy or judgment. Jumpstart my spirit of self-control, O God. Show me how to keep my thoughts, words and actions in line with Your Word.
