AFTER DESIRE IS CONCEIVED / JAMES 1:15

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) James 1:15

Then when lust hath conceived, it bringeth forth sin: and sin, when it is finished, bringeth forth death.

AFTER DESIRE IS CONCEIVED / JAMES 1:15

James uses the analogy of the birthing process to describe what it is like to go from temptation to spiritual destruction. Ungodly desires can lead to moral deception, then to evil deeds, and in the end to spiritual death. This means that if we do not rely on the Holy Spirit for strength to overcome selfish and ungodly desires, we begin to believe Satan’s lies and fall into his snares. If we continue in this wrong direction, we will forsake God’s standards and purposes for us. This process, if not broken through submission to God (James 4:7), eventually results in spiritual destruction and death (Romans 6:23), which is eternal separation from God.
