I loved my last article. Knowing what you are weak at, and working daily to plug the leak. But I teach people to quit with God’s power. To quit with God’s power, pray over His mighty Word.
Job 28:28 ESV Behold, the fear of the Lord, that is wisdom, and to turn away from evil is understanding.’”
Do you want God’s power in your quitting process? If yes, then do a soft memorization of this verse. The fear of the Lord is step one toward joy in your life. Late in my quitting process, I was very aware of what the Bible said about my habit. When I would drive, I drove like a grandmother because I was scared of dying in that condition. Read the verse again.
I was learning the fear of the Lord. Consider praying:
“Father, fill me with Your wisdom. Help me to fear You.”
Second, “to turn away from evil is understanding.’” Consider praying:
“Father, help me to turn away from evil.”
Wow, hard to pray these prayers too much. I would estimate that I have prayed a variant of that last prayer over 100,000 times, and every time I was completely sincere with a full desire to change.
Third, back to Wednesday’s article. Find an area that you are weak in, research it, and work on improving that trait daily, in addition to today’s article.
The above article would be an example for a person who gave a low rating to their level of fearing the Lord. To raise your rating, you find an article like this, study it, pray over it, and increase your fear of the Lord.
The fear of the Lord is an excellent skill for quitting. Study this verse, and consider praying these prayers. When we fully “Hide” a verse in our hearts, we start quitting with power.
