Self-Control?

We all are weak in the flesh and need help over coming sin and being able to control ourselves. This is part of the reason God gives us the Holy Spirit when we become followers of Jesus. We have very little self-control but with the power of the Holy Spirit we have the ability to have self-control at all times if we obey the warnings from the Spirit.

Galatians 5:22-23 
22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23 gentleness, self-control; against such things there is no law.

When we control ourselves we do it to glorify God and in the end we will receive the rewards that God has for us in heaven!


1 Corinthians 9:25 
25 Every athlete exercises self-control in all things. They do it to receive a perishable wreath, but we an imperishable.

So if you want true self-control surrender your life to Jesus and He will give you the power of self-control!!!
