*GOOD TO GO™ DAILY DRILL BY FUNSHO BABS* 

 *ATTENDING YOUR OWN FUNERAL* 

 *ANCHOR TEXTS*

 ROM 6:1,11,Ephesians 2:1,5,Col 2:13

*Even when we were dead in sins, hath he quickened us together with Christ...*

*And you being dead in your sins, and the uncircumcision of your flesh....*

*God forbid,How shall we,that are dead to sin, live any longer therein?*

✍️5 years ago,I met these two guys on different occasions.One told me,he has issues with drug abuse right from childhood.The other said he had( note my word 'had'),issues with pornography and masturbation.

The former said ,that he couldn't do without drugs while the later said he is free, after 21 days fasting and praying.

My point is the second guy,said he had an encounter with the same temptation but he was able to overcome because he is now dead to the sin.While the other one is dead in sin,this particular guy is dead to the sin.

If a dead man could attend his own funeral,he would hear a lot things,he would see a lot of things but he can't respond.Our calling is unto both death and life.

Death to sin,life to Righteousness.

In our anchor texts,we see two kinds of the dead

(1) *Those dead in sin* ( addiction or sinful lifestyle) This is the position of every man born into this world.

Dead in inherited sin,dead in his personal sin.

 *(2) Those dead to sin*

 ( Free from sin,the new creatures in Christ) 

To attend one's funeral, simply means 

(1)you are dead 

(2)but still conscious

(3) unresponsive or unyielding to temptation

Unresponsive to certain stimulus, unyielding to temptation.

It means we are dead to lust of the eye,the lust of the flesh and the pride of life. I John 2:15.

Paul says if we are dead to sin,we should stay dead.Not half dead ,half alive.He says further , just like the  dead man attending his own funeral is unresponsive to his environment,so should we be.

*How can we live any longer therein to sin?* Rom 6:2

In verse 11,He asked us to consider ourselves truly dead to sin.

Next time ,we are faced with the same TEMPTATION,just keep saying,I am dead to sin,I am alive unto righteousness.I refuse to yield my body to sin.

And of course, look for exit door and run away.

 *DECLARATION* 

I am dead to sin but alive unto Righteousness.I am quickened by the Holy Spirit.Sin has no dominion over me.

Good morning,are we good to go?
