In today's world, stealing is seen as a right to those who do so! Some of their excuses are, "They have insurance to replace it; they can afford to buy another; I need it more than they do..." They have no self-control in coveting their "neighbor's" belongings, so they take them! The sad story for them is there will never be anything that will "satisfy" them. The more they steal, the more Satan gets control of them even to the point of demonic possession. Drug addiction is an example of the "reason" they steal; to feed their drug habits. Self-Control has become self abuse!
Ecclesiastes 4:6, "...be content with what little you have..." If you look worldwide there are always millions more who have much less than you!
Luke 13:14, "...be content with your wages..." If you look worldwide, you will see those in bondage that have no wages!
Acts 19:36, "...be content and do nothing rash..." For when you do something rash, it brings more trouble down upon you!
Philippians 4:11, "Whatsoever state I am, be content." For if you are in Christ Jesus, you know the LORD GOD says he will supply all your essential needs (Genesis 45:11). In the book of Philippians 4:19, "My GOD will meet all of your needs according to His glorious riches in Christ Jesus." Self-Control is knowing our needs from our wants. Self-Control is knowing right from wrong. Self-Control is making the right choice to not steal things that don't belong to us. It is so much more exciting when our wants get supplied by Christ Jesus! Know, there are "Entertaining Angels" all about us.
