 If you're trapped in addiction or habitual sin, here's a biblical key that can help you. Don't copy the behavior and customs of this world, but let God transform you into a new person by changing the way you think. You can't change your behavior unless you've changed your mind. If you're struggling to change your behavior, it's a sign that your mind still needs to be renewed. If you change your behavior without changing your mind, you end up fighting against yourself. So repent, change your mind, agree with God that the sin will not fulfill. Agree with God that it's completely wrong. Agree with God that it should go immediately in all forms, in all measure, and for all time. Sometimes we say, God, I'm done with it. All the while, the flesh whispers, for now, we cry no more. And the flesh whispers, that is, no more until the craving gets strong again. Stop lying to yourself about what you want or intend. Repent, change your mind, agree with God, and don't give the sin nature an opportunity.
