Title: Self Control
Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding. – Prov 3:5
Whatever makes us happy, right? Not so fast… Tempting situations hit us every day, it seems. The world today thinks it’s about giving in to the flesh and making sure we are keeping ourselves happy.
Self-control is a tough thing, but it honors God. The Bible has many examples of people denying the flesh, and a great example is Daniel.
Daniel 1:5-17 – This shows that Daniel denied self and kept his body clean by sticking to vegetables and water even though he had access to all of the meat and other foods that he wanted. By not defiling his body, he was honoring God, receiving incredible blessings like wisdom and understanding, to name just a few. So denying self is possible.
Real Men Trust God all the time
