Currently feeling weak

I've fallen down and went back to this old bad habit. I'm ashamed of it and I am guilty of it. I feel like I just won't be able to stand up again, because it's the same old mistake that happens when pressure / stress hits me.

I know it's not a good thing to give in to an old habit, yet I guess I'm not that good. I'm doing my best to read God's word everyday and seek Him first all the time in everything I do. Yet I fail him by going back to an old habit. I hate myself for it. Like I don't deserve to be God's follower. I can't keep walking the talk consistently....
 
Keep up on trying to overcome that bad habit. Jesus Christ died on the cross for that bad habit so you can follow Him. I have a bad habit that hinders me too. I have to fight it everyday too. Just give it over to Jesus and let His strength pull you through it. Christ has overcome it all so you can too. I will keep you in my prayers to overcome that bad habit.
Your Brother in Christ.
 
Thanks for you post Joshua. Yes, I will constantly pray to God especially during times of temptation. Yes and I'll pray for you too so that you may also overcome your bad habit. GBY always.
 
My brother, though you are currently feeling weak He is currently exceedingly strong and working mightily in you! When this temptation comes call on the Name of Jesus, believe He has heard and walk away trusting that He is empowering you to do so. You will have victory as you walk by faith in Him.:shade:
Also when old habits come to call I find victory in this:
I stop and acknowledge that I am even now standing in the presence of Almighty God my Father. I now realize that He is here and I do not want to grieve His heart. I instead find myself wanting to draw near and those things that were pulling me in the wrong direction have no power over me. The closer we draw to the Father the less the world seems apealing to us.

Many blessings and much love in Christ,
your brother Larry.
 
Thanks brother Larry ^^ I will also keep your advice in my heart and mind. As well as your memory verse ^^ Thanks for caring and GBY always!!!
