PATHWAY TO PURITY

PURITY: free from impurities or mixture

“PURITY should be the GOAL of your life before Me and before the world. PURITY is not following RULES or DRESSING a certain way. PURITY is a HEART ISSUE, and it comes by SURRENDERING and SUBMITTING every area of your life to My LOVE and to the Holy Spirit’s POWER to TRANSFORM. PURITY doesn’t mean that you never have another temptation or temporary falling short of My standard of righteousness. It’s what you DO with temptations and sins that determines whether you are GROWING IN PURITY or just LEARNING TO HIDE your UNCLEANNESS from people and from the Spirit’s searchlight. PRETENDING that you walk in PURITY gives place to the RELIGIOUS SPIRIT, to LYING, to COVER-UPS, to being DECEIVED, and to a LACK of DISCERNMENT. Don’t get caught in the TRAP of wearing a FACADE of PURITY. I AM always available to hear your CONFESSIONS and your STRUGGLES. You should have TRUSTED brothers and sisters in Christ that you can COME CLEAN with about areas where you are struggling with sin. When you have the COURAGE to bring a sin into the LIGHT, the darkness loses its POWER over you. Allow Jesus to HEAL any area of wounding or UNMET NEED that allowed a stronghold of sin to be built in your life. Ask Me to DEMOLISH the stronghold that kept the sin HIDDEN and EMPOWERED. SURRENDER DAILY and ask Holy Spirit to WALK you on the path of life and to cause you to LOVE ME MORE than the HIDDEN AREA of sin. PURITY is not RESTRICTION; it is the FREEDOM to make HEALTHY and LIGHT-FILLED choices that will bring you WHOLENESS, GREAT JOY, and DEEP SATISFACTION. Partner with Me on this PATHWAY TO PURITY.”

PROVERBS 16:17 (TPT) “Repenting from evil places you on the highway of holiness. Protect purity and you protect your life.”
