We finish up this series today. We have been talking about our appetites and how they desire to control us. So what happens when we lose control? When our appetite for food takes over and we no longer eat to live, but live to eat? When our appetite for significance gets out of control and we search for better stuff instead of a better me? or because we feel insignificance we just want to escape? What happens when our desire spiritual emotional physical intimacy leads us into living in a bad relationship rather than into a relationship where we live for God? and because of that we hide? What do we do?????
Things done in secret control us.
When we hide in secret we live in darkness.
If you want to break to power of darkness you must expose it the light. Ephesians 5:8-14 Paul talks about the power of light and darkness. If you don’t know Jesus you live in the dark, but once you receive him HE bring light in to your life. Secrets empower your appetites. If you are hiding in shame because of an appetite that has gotten out of control, EXPOSE IT! How? By telling someone about it. James 5:16 says {confess your sin to each other and pray for each other so that you my be healed.}
Find someone who loves and cares about you and tell them about the darkness you are battling and watch what happens. And that’s the way I see it in my market.
