Finding Peace and Cleansing Your Soul – 5 Ways To Stop Sinning

It’s possible to believe in God and follow His rules, but still sin all the time. We’re all sinners and nobody is perfect except God.

But, when you find yourself in a situation where you keep sinning and keep making the same mistakes, it’s time to stop yourself.

When we sin and mess up our lives, we find that God doesn’t go off and leave us- he enters into our troubles and saves us. — Eugene Peterson

You Can Change

If you feel sad and your sins are haunting you, remind yourself that you can change. Change is possible and you shouldn’t give up on yourself.

God will forgive you if you repent yourself. God will guide you if you’re ready for a new chapter.

Everybody makes mistakes, but you should still keep trying to correct and avoid those mistakes.

Your sins don’t define you, but you have to avoid sinning. You have to minimize it because you deserve more.

When your life is filled with sins, you feel distant from God. Your heart and mind are burdened and poisoned.

You have to find a way to live a better life. You have to cleanse your life and you have to turn the page now.

1. Don’t Ignore Your Sins

Every person is a sinner, but many people like to ignore that fact. Many people think that their sins aren’t that bad.

Many people like to find justification and reason for their sins. They’re to themselves, but they keep forgetting that they can’t lie to God.

God knows what you did. He knows why you did it. You can’t hide things from Him. Therefore, don’t hide it from yourself either.

Be aware of yourself and repent yourself. Ask for forgiveness. Try to make things right.

Don’t be delusional and be more self-critical. If you do this, God will forgive you easily.

He will see your maturity and responsibility. He will see that you deserve to be guided to something better.

He will help you to avoid sins and He will support you.

Be honest in your prayers, and show God how you feel about your mistakes. Be open and things will be changed.

When you take responsibility for your sins and mistakes, it will be easier to find a way to avoid the dark path in your life.

2. Believe In God’s Forgiveness

If you’re aware of your sins, but you’re afraid that God won’t forgive you, try to change that attitude.

You have to believe in unlimited God’s love and mercy. He will forgive you if you’re honest.

He will forgive you if you’re truly sorry. When you understand how glorious God is, you will find a way to stop sinning.

You will be ashamed to sin again. You will feel ashamed to destroy your progress.

You will feel motivated to be a good person. You will feel motivated to do good deeds.

Sins won’t be a part of your life anymore. Sins won’t bring you down again.

3. Make Some Big Changes

If you feel like you can’t run away from sins no matter how strong your faith is, you have to make some big changes in your life.

If your job is making you sin often, change it. Find a job that will allow you to nurture your faith.

If your friends or family are causing you to sin all the time, get away from them. Create a distance and stick to your path only.

If you’re involved with someone who is a bad person, you have to leave. You have to leave some people behind if you want to save yourself.

4. Create Positive Habits

You will feel regenerated and your life will have a purpose again. It’s not easy to be a good person, but it’s possible.

Your kindness and positive actions will help you to stay away from evil thoughts and wrong actions.

5. Connect With God Again

If you’re ready to leave the life of sins behind, you have to connect with God again.

You have to strengthen your faith and you have to find a reason to focus on good things again.

Connecting with God is easy when you believe in His power. Prayer and reading the Bible will help you to cleanse your soul.

Spending some time around good people will remind you what matters in life. Taking a break to understand the real value of life will help you to stay away from sin.

Connect with God again, grow your faith, and your sins will stay in your past.

There’s a difference between knowing God and knowing about God. When you truly know God, you have energy to serve Him, boldness to share Him, and contentment in Him. – J.I. Packer
