Do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived. Neither fornicators, nor idolaters, not adulterers, nor homosexuals, nor sodomites, nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revillers, nor extortioners, will inherit the kingdom of God. 1 Corinthians 6:9-10

At the moment when you accept Christ into your life, His Holy Spirit comes and resides inside your heart. The decision you make to believe in and accept Jesus sacrifice on your behalf of sins is the point when you say to God..."I surrender all". Everything that is outside His will and "off limits", according to God's word, should be removed or done away with from your life. God makes no exceptions and does not want to hear excuses for your disobedience. 

Do the desires to commit these sin acts go away immediately? For some children of God they do...for others it's a daily battle to fight the urges and avoid the temptation to pursue the world's pleasures. But, for the Child of God, you can call upon the power of God to help you remove those sinful desires and replace them with more of His presence in your life. God isn't going to put up with deliberate sin in your life. He certainly won't bless you and often times will remove His hand of protection while you wonder off on your own, pursuing those things outside His will.

As a Child of God, your body is the Holy Temple of God. Treat it with the Godly reverence it deserves. Jesus sacrificed His all so you can have a deep personal relationship with Him. Your decision to follow Him came with your commitment to sacrifice the worldly things from your life so His Holy Presnece can live inside you. 

Are you battling sin? We all do every day. Ask God to supply you with the desire and strength to turn from sin and walk in obedience. Our lives should be a reflection of God's spirit living inside us. Pray, focus and surrender your all for His presence to be revealed in your life. He will bless you for your obedience. God bless.
