Don’t you realize that you become the slave of whatever you choose to obey? You can be a slave to sin, which leads to death, or you can choose to obey God, which leads to righteous living. Ro. 6:16
It took many years to finally admit to myself that I was a slave to overeating. Because it is a learned coping mechanism, there are still times when I find myself wanting to eat beyond full. There would be times that I would hear the food call my name to come a dine with it, as if I was having a secret love affair, and the fact of the matter is I was. I was having an affair with a false lover, and friend that made empty promises that there was no way to keep. The enemy took occasion through my own lust to enslave me to my base need. We all need food to live, but there is no life in it. Life is in the blood, (His Blood) Lev. 17:11 How do you know if you are enslaved? Can you put it down? How long can we fast? Can the Lord tell you to put food down and you do it? Who do you obey? That will tell you who's slave you are.
