The Internal War

Lesson Content: The Internal WarThe Baffling Behavior: Use Romans 7:15. We discuss the universal frustration of Paul's words: "For what I want to do I do not do, but what I hate I do." We talk about how draining it is to fight your own desires.The Good Conscience: Focus on verse 16. The very fact that we hate our poor choices proves that our hearts actually agree with God. Our grief over our sin is proof that our conscience is awake and that we are not a lost cause.The Invader: Discuss verse 17. The critical difference between who we are and what is living inside us. Paul says, "It is no longer I myself who do it, but it is sin living in me." Recovery is learning to separate our true, redeemed identity in Jesus Christ from the old fleshly nature that still tries to call the shots.Personal Reflection: "What is the one thing you keep doing that you truly hate doing?" You are not alone in this internal war.🌟 Celebrate Recovery at Peters Creek Baptist Church📍 6300 Library Road, South Park, PA Fridays at 6:30 PMAlso gathering on Mondays at 7 PM at Crossroads Ministries in Finleyville.➡️ Not local?
