Resolve to be Clean

You are already clean because of the word which I have spoken to you. John 15:3 As the New Year has begun, make a resolution to take on a higher level of personal holiness - to stand before others with a newly purified heart. Find an accountability partner and ask him/her to ask you on a regular basis “Are you clean?” Clean from impure thoughts, pornography, immorality, etc. It’s a good question to ask, don’t you think? Few of us like being presented with something that pries this hard - something so personal, something we might not be able to answer yes to. And be prepared, you may not get the answer you’re hoping for. Your partner, if they are truly being transparent, may tell you they are not “clean”. Or they may tell you they are and then circle back with you later to tell you that they lied. For most men, and for an increasing number of women, this is the reality of the world we live in today. Don’t judge these people, give them the grace to allow the Holy Spirit work in their lives and help them any way you can. Forgive them if they respond to the Holy Spirit with honesty and remorse. Talk with them, pray together, and lay out some accountability steps. It can change a life – theirs and yours. And it can free them from the whole demoralizing trap of phony sexual fulfillment. How about you? Are you clean? I’d love to talk to you personally.
