CRUSHING BELITTLING & BESETTING SINS
THE PURPOSE OF THIS PRAYER
This prayer is designed for those struggling with any kind of besetting and belittling sin. Many people are struggling with some habitual or besetting sin in their lives. A lot of saints struggle with besetting sins for example, Abraham struggled with the besetting sin of telling half-truths when he was overtaken by fear. He did this on at least two occasions: first to the Egyptians and later on, to Abimelech, the king of the Philistines. Gen. 12:14-20, 20:1-18.
Besetting sins include gossiping, losing one’s temper, and indulging one’s fleshly lusts etc
The important thing that you need to remember at all times about your besetting sin is that you must never change your view of its sinfulness. There are times when a Christian keeps on falling into the same sin, and after some time he gets so used to it that he loses the sense of its seriousness in God’s sight. He no longer feels guilty after committing it. He becomes tired of resisting it any longer, and begins to excuse it as his own personal weakness. Such sugar-coating of a sin is the easiest way to give the devil a grip in your life by which he can draw you further and further away from the Lord. “If I regard iniquity in my heart, the Lord will not hear me” (Psalm 66:18).
Therefore, your attitude toward besetting sin must always remain the same as God’s – You must hate it enough to keep on striving to get rid of it! Let your heart be challenged to do this by Hebrews 12:1 – “Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us” However, removing a besetting sin is easier said than done. Victory may either be immediate or gradual.
That is why you must pray this prayer with all your heart to gain victory from besetting and belittling sin. The Lord will grant you victory, in the name of Jesus.
Rom. 6: 14- For sin shall not have dominion over you: for ye are not under the law, but under grace.
