Day Twenty-Eight : Keep it out (Helmet of Salvation)


Take the helmet of salvation… (Ephesians 6:17)

We said yesterday that Satan attacks our mind in two ways. 
The first was to make us doubt our salvation.

The second is to put ideas into it.

Often thoughts and ideas we do not want to entertain will come to us.

I do not understand what I do. For what I want to do I do not do, but what I hate I do. – Romans 7:15

 

When sinful or inappropriate thoughts come to us, we need to recognise their source, and act accordingly.

Our Salvation means we no longer have to give in to our sinful desires, we need to remind ourself of this… and accept the salvation which frees us from the “body of death” Paul refers to.
