Key #5 – Immediately Repent When You Fail 

The Bible says the best way to resist temptation is to flee from it. However, it is easier said than done, and we end up falling now and then. When we fail to flee from temptation, inevitably, we fall. Notice key #5 doesn’t say, immediately repent if you fail. The reality is that, at times, you will fall. This truth should help you to quickly repent when it does occur. 

God’s love, patience, and kindness should lead you to repentance when you fall. He does not want you to stay away from Him,  isolated in your guilt (Romans 2:4). Jesus is a healer (Luke 5:31-32). When you fall and mess up, don’t forget the benefits of being a child of God (Psalm 103:1-4). He can redeem and refresh you. 

 Reflection: 

Think back to the last time you fell on your journey? Did you go to God immediately? If not, from now on, how can you ensure you go to God right away to repent?
