Walk in the Spirit...!

Galatians 5:16-18, 25 NKJV

I say then: Walk in the Spirit, and you shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh. For the flesh lusts against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; and these are contrary to one another, so that you do not do the things that you wish. But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the law. If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit.

† Shalom †......! Day #141. Do you know that when you walk in the Spirit, you're are actually walking against the lust of the flesh? Let us pray. Father, let us not be led by the lust of our flesh but in every step we take, we walk in the Spirit for those who are led by the Spirit are sons and daughters of God. In Jesus name we ask and pray, amen!

Friends, when you are walking in Spirit,  it means you are walking against all your fleshy desires.  You subject all your flesh to the to the name of Jesus. You crucify the flesh and live by the Spirit,  for the Spirit gives life. When you walk in the lust of the flesh, it brings destruction to yourself and the wages of sin is death. Christ came give life and life more abundantly. If we have started in the Spirit, let us finish it in the Spirit. Never end your life, for the flesh brings judgement and condemnation but the Spirit gives life and liberty.

The Holy Spirit always warns us of anything. Even before we are about sin, the Holy Spirit convicts us and stops us from pursuing the desires of the flesh. The flesh is in rebellion with the Spirit of God. It does not take heed to the things of the Spirit but yielding towards the Spirit of God. How do we live by the Spirit?

1. Worship Him in Spirit and in truth.
Your lifw is a living sacrifice to God, therefore as you live, worship Him in the Spirit and in truth.  Everything you do, do for the Lord,  and in the name of the Lord. Romans 12:1-2 NKJV I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that you present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which  is your reasonable service. And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.

2. As you walk in the Spirit, practice and use the 9 gifts of the Holy Spirit. For the works of the flesh are evident, which are: adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lewdness, idolatry, sorcery, hatred, contentions, jealousies, outbursts of wrath, selfish ambitions, dissensions, heresies, envy, murders, drunkenness, revelries, and the like; of which I tell you beforehand, just as I also told you in time past, that those who practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of God. But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control.

Amen! Hallelujah 🙌!  Let us be led by the Spirit of God and not by the world. For the flesh has been in rebellion since the beginning. God bless you!

Let this day be the day of the Lord!
