Become More Conscious of Your Conscience

Daily writing prompt
What’s the best advice you’d give to someone younger than you?

To be unconscious of your conscience is to be captured by various cravings and compulsions. Let your conscience guide you beyond rigid rules into conscious awareness of and heart-to-heart connection with the living presence of the risen Jesus Christ.

Your conscience is God’s writing on your heart. (Romans 2:14) Many people have so hardened their heart that their conscience is seared as with a hot iron. (1 Timothy 4:2) It has become insensitive to the conviction and leading of God the Holy Spirit (Romans 8:14) within them. (Romans 8:11)

Always strive to keep your conscience clear, clean, and responsive to God’s Spirit. (Acts 24:16) Let your conscience continually lead you to repentance (humbly aligning your thoughts and behaviors with God and His will) so that Jesus can cleanse your conscience and empower you to live free from guilt. (Hebrews 9:14)

Your conscience is an amazing gift from God to you. Wake it up! (Ephesians 5:14) Trust and treasure it. If you want a better, happier, more fulfilling life, begin to consistently listen to and obey your conscience and Christ will give you supernatural life.

A clean conscience is a key to God’s power working in and through you. A guilty conscience quenches the Holy Spirit.

About Steve Simms

I like to look and think outside the box. In college I encountered Jesus Christ and I have been passionate about trying to get to know Him better ever since. My wife and I long to see the power and passion of the first Christ-followers come to life in our time. I have written a book about our experiences in non-traditional church, called, "Beyond Church: An Invitation To Experience The Lost Word Of The Bible--Ekklesia." If you need encouragement, search for: Elephants Encouraging The Room and/or check out my Amazon author page. Thank you!
