This is part two of self control. Um, I just wanted to share that counterfeit. The counterfeit solution to self control is willpower. And willpower works temporarily, but in the end, your condition will worse, it will worsen. So, um, just remember that true self control is in Jesus Christ. And what self control is, is choosing the important thing over the urgent thing. So, for example, I have a. A pizza and vegetables in front of me. Uh, the important thing is to eat the vegetables. For the long term goal, you know, envisioning, being healthy, the urgent thing is choosing the pizza because it tastes good, right? Which is, um, I need to eat the vegetables. But, um, real self control is choosing the important thing over the urgent thing. So what we need to do is, um, envision the important thing biblically. Biblically? What is the biblically important thing? How. What will please god? And then draw. Envision that. Draw the vision and choose it at the moment the urgent thing presents itself. So when you’re envisioning the. The biblically important thing, do that, you know, and then when you go out into life and the urgent thing comes up, remember that important thing that you were envisioning, okay? And for you to be able to do this, you gotta speak the word of god to yourself and over yourself. Preach to yourself. Because it’s very hard for when, you know, something comes up urgently and we Don’t know the word. We can’t draw to it. We can’t use it, you know, so we need to know the word, know God’s character and know him. And, um, this is. This is self control, you know, just being able to pull the word and. And out of anger. Like you’re. Say you’re angry at somebody and you’re about to sin in your anger, but no, you remember what the word says, and you pull that scripture out and say it over yourself and. And your anger, you know, is gone. You chose the important thing over that urgent thing. I just wanted to share that with you, you know, give control to god. Know the word of god. Make yourself accountable to other people. And identify the way the flesh drives you and crucify it. You know, those are some things that you could do to help you. So thank you for watching. God bless.
