Galatians 5:16-18 (The Message)
My counsel is this: Live freely, animated and motivated by God's Spirit. Then you won't feed the compulsions of selfishness. For there is a root of sinful self-interest in us that is at odds with a free spirit, just as the free spirit is incompatible with selfishness. These two ways of life are antithetical, so that you cannot live at times one way and at times another way according to how you feel on any given day. Why don't you choose to be led by the Spirit and so escape the erratic compulsions of a law-dominated existence?
Do you walk in the Spirit every day? Would you like to walk in the Spirit every day? Is it possible to consistently walk in the Spirit? In Ephesians 2:3 Paul states that before we came to Jesus Christ,we walked in the lusts of the flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh. You know the flesh has a mind of its own. And if allowed to do so, the flesh will become obsessed with fleshly temptation. But in Galatians 5:16 it provides the answer to the flesh. If you walk in the spirit, ye shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh. It is time to move up into a higher realm. God wants you to leave the low life you've been living and to come up to the spiritual path He has destined for you to walk on in your life. So resolve in you heart today to make the path of the Holy Spirit the place where you live, work and function. Then you will experience love,joy,peace,longsuffering,gentleness,goodness,faith,meekness and temperance.
Have A Blessed Day
