Lesson 13 Warring Against the Flesh, Praying God’s Word
Testimony and Question 6
Marcus writes, "These weight loss courses at Setting Captives Free have helped me to come into a deeper, intimate, loving relationship with my Father. I’ve come to know the Lord more deeply through suffering in my eating, and obedience. The Lord has given me a heart of flesh that loves him foremost, then loving others.
I’ve found that the course helped not only with eating but also a long battle with pornography, which has been defeated with the help of the Lord. The reason is that I understand the battle we fight is daily and not a done deal until I’m free of this sinful flesh. Thus I need to wash at the cross, war against the flesh, and walk in the spirit daily! These are the core tenets of victorious Christian living. I’ve grown in my relationship with the Lord and more caring for others.
I’ve lost about 30 pounds for sure but pretty sure I’ll lose more. It’s been a grind, but the Holy Ghost helped me to get back on course even if delayed. I have suffered many spiritual attacks and losses since the beginning. Thus it took months for the first course and a couple of days longer the second. As a dad and teacher, I’ve taken a different approach to complete the course and be present with my family and the Lord still sustained me. I’ve learned much more than I can type but ultimately I’ve learned and am still learning to Love My God above all and he gives me the victory."
