Scripture: "that you put off, concerning your former conduct, the old man which grows corrupt according to the deceitful lusts." Ephesians 4:22
Observation: The principles, habits, and dispositions on my soul must be changed. There must be a work of sanctification that is seen and lived out by me.
Application: Sanctification consists of these two things: 1. the old man must be put off. The corrupt nature is called man, because, like the human body it consists of many parts, mutually supporting and strengthening each other. I must make the deeds of the old man miserable, mortify them, see to there end. 2. The new man must be put on. It is not enough to forsake the old way, I must apply a new way of doing things, embrace them, write them on my heart, for it is not enough to stop doing evil I must now do well.
Heavenly Father, no more old man each day may I say this, each day strive for this, doing it once is not enough I must daily put off the old and put on the new, in Jesus name....A-men
