PURITY

There are a lot of hard things going on in the world right now, not to mention the challenges many of us are facing personally. How do we press on with purity of heart, The only way to find lasting victory and remain steadfast is to seek help from Jesus who transforms hearts from the inside out (Psalm 51:10).

Purity is not only a physical and mental battle. it’s a spiritual battle. It’s a battle against sin and the flesh. Our hearts have been corrupted by sin, therefore we can’t pursue a perfect life of purity in our own strength.

“If we, as women, want to embrace purity as God designed it, we must first acknowledge the fact that we are very imperfect.

We are completely impure and unable to change that. The fact is that none of us is 100% sexually pure, we have all missed God’s ‘plan A’ of perfection. Our purity according to Scripture is determined by the blood of Jesus Christ, not by our sexual choices.

There are not some women who need Jesus more than others. As the Bible says, all of us have sinned and are ‘dirty’ before God. It is only Jesus’ atoning death on the cross that supernaturally presents us as a pure and spotless Bride.’ That must be our starting place. We must acknowledge our need for Jesus.
