Daily Bread #638 - "Preparations"
(14) But put on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make no provision for the flesh in regard to its lusts.
Romans 13:14 - NASB
Textual Insight:
Provision is an important word. It means to give forethought or provide providential care. All of us are either preparing to succeed or preparing to fail. Paul said that Christians should walk in light, not darkness. He taught that we should make no provision for the flesh. Positively speaking, when we study, pray, forgive, et cetera, we are making provision for spiritual lives. Conversely, when we go places that we shouldn't, spend time with negative people, or fall back into negative habits, we are making provision for sin. What are you currently making provision for?
Sincerely,
Christopher Threatt
