Romans 6:12-16

Paul's message in Romans 6 warns that our passions, when disconnected from God's design, can enslave us. Sin doesn't have to reign in our bodies because of Christ's work. Breaking free requires identifying where sin enters our lives and deliberately presenting ourselves to God instead. This means submitting to God's Word, prayer, building new habits, and surrendering to the Holy Spirit. When we present ourselves to God for righteousness, transformation occurs as our hearts, minds, and bodies become instruments for God's kingdom, allowing us to stand courageously as agents of truth in a broken world.
