1 John 5:18
"We know that everyone who has been born of God does not keep on sinning, but he who was born of God protects him, and the evil one does not touch him." ESV
Are true Christians perfect? Are we free from making mistakes? Do we always obey the principles of the Word? The answer is, no. But, if we are truly children of God, the Holy Spirit will convict us when we get off track. The love and grace of God will overpower the inclination to sin. We will be alerted by the Holy Spirit and will turn back to His way. If we continue to sin and ignore the Holy Spirit's conviction, we are in danger of numbing our consciences from the voice of God.
Heavenly Father, search our hearts and reveal to us if there are any desires in our hearts that are displeasing to You. Help us to be open and obedient to the Holy Spirit. Help us to receive Your love and grace that overpowers our spiritually dangerous selfishness. We pray in the name of Jesus, Amen.
