TODAY'S SCRIPTURE:
Romans 7:15-17 - For I do not understand my own actions. For I do not do what I want, but I do the very thing I hate. 16 Now if I do what I do not want, I agree with the law, that it is good. 17 So now it is no longer I who do it, but sin that dwells within me.

| 0:00.0 | Hello, my friends. Thanks for joining me for the morning mindset. This is our opportunity |
| 0:09.4 | to get our minds aligned with the truth of God's word today. And the section of scripture |
| 0:15.6 | we're in is so important for us to understand. So let's get into it with a question. Why do you wind up |
| 0:24.4 | sinning when you really don't want to sin? Have you ever thought that through? It's kind of a |
| 0:30.7 | mystery sometimes. We don't know why we gave in, why we actually did the thing that we really |
| 0:36.3 | didn't want to do. We're going to get into that |
| 0:38.0 | today directly from the scripture in Romans chapter 7. But before we do, I want to remind you |
| 0:43.7 | there are other podcasts that Morning Mindset Media produces. One of those is for Christian parents |
| 0:50.4 | or those who are about to be parents. It's called God-fearing kids and the parents who |
| 0:55.5 | raise them. You get to hear my wife and I talk about scriptural principles with very relevant |
| 1:00.7 | applications to everyday parenting. You can find out more by going to godfearingkids.com. |
| 1:08.1 | Okay, friends, before we dig into Romans 7, let's pray together that the Holy Spirit will be our |
| 1:13.9 | teacher. Holy Spirit, that's exactly what we want today. We want you to teach us. We want you to |
| 1:19.8 | open our hearts and our minds to understand something today about the reason we give into sin, |
| 1:25.7 | even though we're Christians, even though we're saved. What's going on there, Lord? Why are we still give in to sin, even though we're Christians, even though we're saved. |
| 1:28.2 | What's going on there, Lord? |
| 1:29.3 | Why are we still giving in to sin? |
| 1:32.1 | Show us so that we can do something about it through your strength and power. |
| 1:36.9 | In Jesus' name, amen. |
| 1:39.9 | Okay, friends, Romans 7, verses 15 through 17 is what we'll be looking at today. So get out your Bible, |
| 1:46.9 | get out your morning mindset journal if you have one, and let's dig in. Our passage for today says, |
| 1:52.7 | For I do not understand my own actions. For I do not do what I want, but I do the very thing I hate. |
