In my opinion, one effective way of overcoming Sin is hating what God hates. There is no such thing as a little sin and a big sin. Sin is sin and God hates all sin because he's perfect and we're not. God hates sin because it can change or alter the future plans that God has for us.
What is Sin. Sin is missing God's mark causing things to change. (James 4:17)"So whoever knows the right thing to do and fails to do it, for him it is sin".
Anytime we don't submit to God, We sin. Anytime we turn to our own flesh, We sin. Anytime we make a decision that can change our future without God consent we sin. (Proverbs 3:5-6) Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct thy paths.
God wants us to follow Him and His instructions to preserve our future. He knows what's best for us, because he created us. No we're not perfect but He requires us to try to live righteously in the image and reflection of him.
Ultimately sin leads to destruction and death. We know that satan comes to steal, kill and destroy. Anytime we willfully sin we allow the enemy into our territory.
Realistically we all have struggles, Insecurities and friction with our flesh, but its required for us to live a life full of repentance, because we dont know when our last day, hour, or minute is on this earth.
God wants the absolute best for us, and he knows we live in a sinful world where we are tempted everyday. It's greatly important that we submit ourselves to the Lord daily and follow his instructions. In order to overcome sin we must hate the impurities that's in our hearts and minds in order for unclean spirits (Matthew 12:43) to be casted out or expelled. We must hate what God hates
