Help in the daily Battle (Part Three)

Romans 6:14: “For sin shall no longer be your master, because you are not under the law, but under grace.” This does not mean temptation disappears or that growth happens right away. It means the arrangement of your relationship with God has shifted. You are no longer defined by your ability to keep rules (law). You are defined by what Jesus has done on your behalf (grace). That changes how you face sin when, not if, it shows up. When you stumble, grace does not leave you there. Being under grace means, you can confess, receive forgiveness, and keep walking with God (see 1 John 1:9).
