Galatians Chapter 5
Live According To The SPIRIT And Not The FLESH.
Paul warned us to not let ourselves be burdened again by the desires of the flesh / sin. What we are to be concerned about is our faith in Christ expressed through a righteous life and a love for God and others.
The acts of the FLESH includes sexual immorality, impurity, witchcraft, hatredness, fighting, jealousy, fits of rage, selfish ambition, drunkenness, envy, and more.
Acts of the SPIRIT include love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control.
Which of these two options do we find our heart pursuing most? Which of these are our strength and which of these are our weakness? May we surrender to Christ those areas we struggle with.
God, forgive me when I give in to the desires of my FLESH. Help me and strengthen me to say no to sin but yes to your SPIRIT. Empower me with your Spirit For Your Glory, in Jesus’s name, amen.
