Lust Kills DestinySample

Unfruitful

“And the cares of this world, and the deceitfulness of riches, and the lusts of other things entering in choke the word, and it becometh unfruitful.” Mark‬ ‭4:19‬ ‭KJV‬‬

Lust will cause you to become unfruitful. Lust will contaminate and choke your harvest. Proverbs‬ ‭4:23‬ ‭KJV‬‬ declares, “Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life.” Guard your heart from toxic relationships and issues that will contaminate your destiny. Guard your heart and protect it with the Word of God. 

‭‭Psalm‬ ‭1:1-3‬ ‭AMPC‬‬ declares, “BLESSED (HAPPY, fortunate, prosperous, and enviable) is the man who walks and lives not in the counsel of the ungodly [following their advice, their plans and purposes], nor stands [submissive and inactive] in the path where sinners walk, nor sits down [to relax and rest] where the scornful [and the mockers] gather. But his delight and desire are in the law of the Lord, and on His law (the precepts, the instructions, the teachings of God) he habitually meditates (ponders and studies) by day and by night. And he shall be like a tree firmly planted [and tended] by the streams of water, ready to bring forth its fruit in its season; its leaf also shall not fade or wither; and everything he does shall prosper [and come to maturity].”

Keep your heart healthy and choose to delight in the Lord. Choose to focus on His Word. Lean on His principles, precepts, instruction, and teaching. Choose to focus on Him and habitually meditate upon His Word day and night. 

Those who choose to dwell in His Word and obey His commandments shall be like a tree firmly planted and tended by the consistent and steady streams of water—ready to bring forth its fruit in its season. 

Lust loves to steal and choke your harvest. Choose to bring forth fruit by yielding to His Word. Don’t yield to the lust and entanglement of this world. Choose to yield to Christ. When you surrender to Christ, lust has no authority. 

When you bow to Christ, lust has no power. When you yield to Christ, every addiction must flee. When Christ is your Lord, lust has no choice but to bow. When Christ occupies your life, lust has no choice but to vacate from your life. 

Let Christ dwell in every space of your heart. John 10:10 AMPC declares, “The thief comes only in order to steal and kill and destroy. I came that they may have and enjoy life, and have it in abundance (to the full, until it overflows).” Lust kills destiny. Lust comes to kill, steal, and destroy. God’s Word came to set you free. Christ came so that you might have life. Let Christ heal you. Let Christ restore you. Let Christ set you free.
