My desires overtake me. My passions fill me. I know not how to carry out the good i desire to display. The sin I do not want to desire continues to dwell in all my actions, all my thoughts, all my days. Where do I go to be renewed? How can I do this to the One I desire to control my life?
Wretched man that I am! Who will deliver me from this body of death? Thanks be to God through Jesus Christ our Lord!
Praise be to the Lord; His Spirit now dwells within me! He gives my mortal body life-- I am no longer a slave to the passions of my sin! Hallelujah God! The Restorer of all sinful beings! You hear our cries for mercy. You encompass us with grace.
For we are no longer in bondage of the spirit of slavery. But we have received the Spirit of adoption, as sons, by whom we cry, "Abba! Father!" We are now children of God, and if children, then heirs-- heirs of God and fellow heirs with Christ, provided we suffer with him in order that we may also be glorified with him.
[Romans 7 & 8]
Hallelujah, Father! For you have saved my being from death. And I eagerly await your return.
Glory be to the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit; As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end, Amen.
