1 John 2:1 (NKJV) 2 My little children, these things I write to you, so that you may not sin. And if anyone sins, we have an Advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous.
Sometimes, even though we know what the right thing is to do, we choose to do wrong because of our weakness, our stubbornness, our lust, etc.
The flesh will voice its opinion when choices need to be made. It’s up to us to keep it accountable.
We’re responsible to hold our flesh accountable to the things God tells us in the scriptures. We cannot let our flesh just run rampant or it will get us into a heap of trouble.
John knew that we all slip up at times. Thank God we have an Advocate with the Father; Jesus Christ! He will be there to help us make things right. He will never leave us nor forsake us to handle any situation on our own. Don’t run away from it. Face it. You can get through this.
Hebrews 13:5-6 (NKJV) 5 Let your conduct be without covetousness; be content with such things as you have. For He Himself has said, “I will never leave you nor forsake you.” 6 So we may boldly say: “The Lord is my helper; I will not fear. What can man do to me?”
If we have sinned and feel like it’s over and there is no way out, remember that Jesus is here to help us get out of the mess. The first step is asking for His help.
He is our friend.
