TOPIC: WHAT TO DO AWAY WITH IN OUR LIVES 4: Lust Of The Eyes.
MEMORY VERSE:
1 Tim. 6:11
“11 But you, O man of God, flee these things and pursue righteousness, godliness, faith, love, patience, gentleness.”
BIBLE READING:
1 John 2:16-17
“16 For all that is in the world — the lust of the flesh, THE LUST OF THE EYES, and the pride of life — is not of the Father but is of the world.
17 And the world is passing away, and the lust of it; but he who does the will of God abides forever.
In technology, we’ve been made to understand that three things are involve in the use of computer, we have Input, Processing and the Output. God is the founder of all technology, His design is what technology is based on. Every thing He created has an Input, Processor and Output devices. Many parts of our body serves as an Input and many still serves as output while the mind is our processor. We will focus on our main input device as human, which is the Eyes. What we see goes along way to determine everything that happens around us. The easiest and fastest input device is our eyes. That you admire something doesn’t mean you must acquire it except it’s in line with your purpose and vision in life. Until you can control what you take in from what you see, you will always lust for what you don’t need.
To be greedy starts from your sight, fornication and adultery is from what you see. Covetousness and the rest are products of lust of the eyes. When we see and try to control it before reaching your processing organ (mind) then, you can overcome the lust of the eyes. See everything but go for what will glorify God in your life and other’s lives. Run from what you don’t need that your eyes is forcing you to do.
God Bless you and Good Morning.
