Personally i think those specific prayers are a distraction most of the times we pray these prayers because its what we think we need and often thats not the case.The
better way is to just trust the holy spirit let him lead i think we miss the awesomeness of doing it Gods way its easy not difficult.The struggle is difficult when we are walking by the flesh and trying to do it our way.When i got to the point where i said to the God i am not going to do it my way anymore and i submit to you because know whats
best for me.Change me and when i feel the wrong desires or temptation to walk by the flesh i just say Lord you know i am weak and i can not
live a christian
life without you help me.As soon as i do that it is effortless theres no struggle thats how we should grow.I am excited with what God is doing
in my
life he has opened his word i am seeing the fruit of his
life impacting mine and i am
changing day by day.I am walking by faith and not slipping back into my old desires i know what it means to be an overcomer sin does not have dominion over me anymore.
In myself i can not boast because it is the power of God at work
in my
life and i give all the praise back to God.brentnz

Kaylee if you have asked Christ into your
life then the holy spirit -LCB- he is the spirit of Christ -RCB- dwells within you it is him that
changes us all we have to do is tell him that we are weak
in whatever area we struggle.You mention alcohol when tempted to drink just tell him Lord i am weak but i am trusting
in your strength to empower me and he will thats is how we change.If we try and do it
in our strength we might succeed
for a couple of times then fall back into our old patterns.Then it becomes forgive me Lord
for my sin we feel guilt and condemned and that is the work of the enemy who is out to destroy our faith
in God and because of our feelings we go and do the same things all over again.But we have a
better way and that is to trust the one who is able to overcome having been set free from my old
life style of sin i am grateful each day to be walking
in his strength not mine.So the Lord has given you the victory
in Christ and even if we stumble sometimes
in the process we remember there is no condemnation to those that are
in Christ Jesus God bless brentnz

Rick the more i think about it we are to
live as overcomers not strugglers since the day i decided to turn away from the sin that was controlling my
life i never fell back into old sinful patterns not once, was i tempted many many times.The Lord will work
in our
lives one area at a time he needs us to give him full control so if an area is taking control we do need to hand it to him so he can
change us.How do we do it immediately we say Lord you know i am weak but
in you i am strong i leaned on him and overcame time and time again.We all have areas of weakness that we struggle
in so do nt feel bad.Struggling is us trying to do it
in our own strength before this process i was so stubborn i refused to let God help me i wanted to do it
in my own strength and so it was a roller coaster ride
in my christian walk if the day went
well i was on a high if it did nt i would would be down.Not any more now when things do nt go to plan i still thank the Lord and when it goes
well i thank the Lord.Because i know that all things work
for good to those who love the Lord.The main area he is wanting is our hearts he wants all our heart not only some until we come to that place we will continue to struggle
in our faith.The only reason to tell you this is not to boast because of what i have done
in myself because i have nothing to boast about but if i did i would brag that Christ has empowered me by his holy spirit to be an overcomer just as he would want you to be.As Christians we are all called to be overcomers more than conquerers.Make a decision today to turn all your hearts to the Lord to acknowledge the areas you are holding onto that are controlling your flesh
life hand them to the Lord and walk according to the spirit and not the flesh and he will give you the victory.That can be a reality starting today merry christmas everyone and may the new year be an exciting one as we put all our trust
in Christ our Lord and savior.Brentnz
