I love the Lord, so when He started speaking to me about my besetting sin I knew I had a struggle on my hands, it was a choice between a close walk with Him or my pet sin although I would still be saved.
There was a song in my head, one of those oldies choruses, the tune was awful but the words were diamond, I knew that God was giving me the key to victory, so I started singing, it goes like this,
+
I have been crucified, crucified with Christ
and I live no longer I but Christ lives in me
and the life that I now live, I live by the faith
by the faith of the Son of God
Who loved me,Who loved me
and gave Himself for me.
Victory was not at all immediate, I kept falling, but I would get up, dust myself down and start singing, over and over, and I got victory, praise God I got free. Through a song? nah, through the mighty power that is in God's word.
