Please pray for me.
I am studying as a 3rd year b.tech. I was very close to Jesus till I joined for b.tech. Jesus helped me a lot for my studies. But after I joined in college, I have done so many bad things. Although I loved Jesus, I can’t stop sinning. I’m addicted to bad habits.
When I ask Jesus to help me, He always helps to pass through my situations. I tried to quit my habits. But it only lasted for a week. Then I go to sinning again and again. My parents are trying hard for my studies. They are getting too old. I want to take care of them.
I have lots of papers to be cleared. Today my tutor told me I am going to be rejected from the exam and I have to study one year again due to low attendance percentage. Please pray for me. I have no one to tell this.
You can stop sinning by power of the Holy Spirit, sanctification is a process over time. Commit yourself to God, and He can make a way for you. Focus on your studies and attendance, you’ve come this far already. Devote your life to Jesus, as the things of this world are passing away fast.
2 Timothy 2: ’19 Nevertheless the foundation of God standeth sure, having this seal, The Lord knoweth them that are his. And, let every one that nameth the name of Christ depart from iniquity.20 But in a great house there are not only vessels of gold and of silver, but also of wood and of earth; and some to honour, and some to dishonour.21 If a man therefore purge himself from these, he shall be a vessel unto honour, sanctified, and meet for the master’s use, and prepared unto every good work.22 Flee also youthful lusts: but follow righteousness, faith, charity, peace, with them that call on the Lord out of a pure heart.’
“From the ends of the earth I call to you, I call as my heart grows faint; lead me to the rock that is higher than I.”
Trust In God and never underestimate the power of prayer. Take the steps necessary to help you stop your bad habits revaluate your surroundings. God will help you but you need to take the steps necessary to help yourself succeed
To Lijo Jose…….The first step in getting healed is realizing you
have a problem and asking for help. You have taken an important
step. Jesus wants to help you/He said “Never will I leave you,
never will I forsake you”. Don’t get weary in doing the right things.
And don’t think you can’t get past these sins and mistakes.
We’ve all done things we would like to take back. It’s getting
back up again that makes you a winner. I am pulling for you. And so
are many others. And most importantly, with God at your side, who
(or what) can be against you? Separate as best you can from friends
that encourage bad behavior. Make it clear you want to concentrate
on school work. They’ll be plenty of time later for recreation. Right
now put your mind on your schooling; combining enough rest,
lots of study, and occasional breaks. And before you do any of that,
ask God to help you, and to find you some good friends that are
doing the right things/friends that are not always looking for trouble
or wasting time. Later on, you’ll be glad you had the discipline to
do the right things now. The scriptures say “iron sharpens iron”. Find
friends that have some “iron” in their souls and will bring out the
best in you. Is there some sort of Christian ministry on campus you
could visit?
