Please Don't Cry Over Yesterday - Jehovah Is With You! ???

[Bible Speaks]

We all at one time conducted ourselves in harmony with the desires of our flesh, doing the things willed by the flesh and the thoughts, and we were naturally children of wrath even as the rest. — Eph. 2:3.

Turning away from bad begins in the mind. (Rom. 8:5) How, then, can you strengthen your resolve to reject bad thoughts?

???

Consider these five ways:

1. Seek God’s help through prayer. (Matt. 6:9, 13)

2. Meditate on Bible examples of those who failed to listen to Jehovah and those who listened. Then note how things turned out for them. (1 Cor. 10: 8-11)

3. Reflect on the mental and emotional harm that sin can cause to you and to your loved ones.

4. Think how God must feel when one of his servants falls into gross sin. (Ps. 78:40, 41)

5. Imagine the joy that fills Jehovah’s heart when he sees a loyal worshipper reject bad and do what is right, whether in public or in private. (Ps. 15:1, 2; Prov. 27:11)

You too can show you trust in Jehovah.
