A sin failure can paralyze us spiritually with guilt, shame and condemnation!

"How did I possibly fall into this nonsense after all the victory." "How could I have done this...how could I be so stupid?" "What am I, some kind of spiritual idiot?" "Now I've really blown it, and God will surely look down his nose at me!" "I just wasted and threw away all the good things that God did for me...I wasted all that time and progress I was making!" "I have no idea what to do now!"

We all still have the capacity to be tempted and thus the capacity to sin, as long as we are in these bodies, and although we are to mature in our faith and to gain victory over living in any known sin, we will from time to time stumble as we learn how to grow up in our faith and in the fullness of the Spirit.

There is wonderful peace that comes from a life of purity and from freedom from sin, in Christ. However, in route to that place of victory and power, sometimes God actually allows us to fall into temptation and into sin in a BIG WAY, and believe it or not He has a very good reason for it.

It can be absolutely devastating, but when we understand God's purpose for it, it can be turned for our good and His glory!

In today's video I share the story of a very well known Bible character whom God allowed to fall into temptation and sin, for a very good reason. Not only that, but I share my own personal worst fall ever into sin and the story behind how and WHY God allowed it to happen. If you have fallen, you will be encouraged by this message my brother or sister in Christ!
