The Bible says in Isaiah: “Seek the Lord while He may be found,
Call upon Him while He is near.”
Satan says: “Go back to your habit. This will be the last time. After this time you will do things God’s way.”
He is lying again. Read the verse again.
Be honest. If you decide to fall say: “I am pouring gas on my habit, and it will cause me destruction.” Be honest. Speak what is really happening, not what satan says is happening.
Some churches say to seek the Lord, but they forget that it is hard to find the Lord, unless we go to war with sin. If habitual sin continues… can He be found?
Second, some decide to seek the Lord for a block of time every day. This is very wise.
Third, start seeking the Lord by praying over your quitting verses first. Do it this way if you want to “Find Him.” When you seek the Lord you are communicating with the “Holy” Spirit. So the first step toward seeking Him should involve trying to be Holy.
Matthew 6:33 ESV But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be added to you.”
I can promise you that in my life, this verse has been completely true.
Fourth, what does, “All these things will be added to you,” mean?
I will say, I gave up a lot of things to try to serve God over the years. But, by this point, I have received everything back plus joy and purpose. The Bible was right again.
Finally, what changes will you make based on these verses?
