Scripture:
- James 1:15
Observations:
In this passage here, we have the progression of sin. At first, we have a mere desire, a temptation. If we allow the desire to take root, it leads us down a course to sin and death. That is our curse. That is the pattern of mankind.
So, then, we must exercise control about what we allow to grow within us. It's somewhat similar to taking captive every thought in that it involves us being aware, but this one is different in that it's focusing on which thoughts lead to our sin.
Application:
I must continue to be aware of my different desires, so that I may fight temptation effectively and efficiently, not falling prey to the desire-sin-death cycle.
