Don’t Be Double Minded!

“A double minded man is unstable in all his ways.”
“I hate every wrong path” (Psalm 119:128). The Psalmist declares a holy revulsion that must dwell in your heart against anything that challenges the law of God. When you struggle to conquer an area of sin in your life, it is because you do not hate that sin. God hates divorce (Malachi 2:16), not because He wants to be legalistic, but because He knows the terrible consequences you will suffer.
You must “love righteousness and hate wickedness” (Psalm 45:7). Satan’s deception is so devious and the consequences of disobedience so eternal that you must have a passion against that which destroys people’s souls.
“Double-minded” people (Psalm 119:113) are those who mix God’s law with their own reasoning, listening to the voice of personal opinion rather than the truth. Such compromisers lead the godly astray and are unstable in all their ways (James 1:8). Rid yourself of luke-warmness and purify your heart if you are double minded (4.8). If you don’t hate sin, you will fall into it. Love God and hate sin, and you will always follow the path of righteousness.
