Today‘s Scripture(s) – Galatians 5:16
“This I say then, Walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh.”
Walk in the Spirit, to Walk in the Spirit we know that we must be ‘Born Again’ and to be ‘Born Again’ we know we must die to the ‘flesh’. How many of us have actually taken on this mind set: “I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me.” Walking in the Spirit is going to take disciplining this flesh, it’s going to take telling this flesh ‘NO’. It’s going to take not yielding to fleshly desires, fleshly gratification. Now when we try to do that on our own we encounter problems, but if we Walk in the Spirit, the Holy Ghost will help us. Do you believe that? There are many of us that are walking in our spirit and not Walking in the Spirit. Many are walking in their own spirit (little s), but not Walking in the Spirit (big S). What’s the difference? Walking in our spirit, is walking in your own limited ways not tapping into the ways of God living the ‘I can do it myself’ way, Walking in the Spirit is simply put Walking in Christ Jesus, following His lead. When I read this scripture today what stood out to me was the distinction of the spelling of “Spirit”. It does not tell us to walk in our spirit, but rather to walk in the Spirit. Look at John 4:24 “God is Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth.” We are to worship the Lord in our spirit and we are to Walk out our lives in the Spirit. The Spirit does not sin, the Spirit does not commit Adultery, the Spirit does not commit fornication, the Spirit is not unclean, the Spirit is not lascivious (lustful, wanton, lewd). The Spirit is not an Idol worshipper. The Spirit does not engage in witchcraft, the Spirit is not hateful, variant, competitive or fierce with anger. The Spirit does not create strife and is not treacherous. The Spirit does not cause dissension and does not envy or commit murder. The Spirit does not engage in drunkenness or boisterous merrymaking. The Spirit does not do any of these things or things ‘like’ these things. (see Galatians 5:19-21). “….of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.” (see Galatians 5:21). We must endeavor to Walk in the Spirit, we must take on the mind set of Walking out our lives in the Spirit if we will do this we will not fulfil the LUST of our FLESH. “I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service.” Romans 12:1.
Today‘s Prayer:
Father I thank you for this day. I thank you for waking me up this morning and I thank you Father God for keeping watch over me last night as I slept. Thank you Father for sending your angels to encamp round about me, thank you Father for protecting me and shielding me and fight for me, cutting down every adversary that would attempt to rise up against me, Lord I thank you. Father you are so good to me and I bless your great and holy name. Thank you Father for your mercy and thank you Father for your grace, I thank and praise you Father God for all things. Lord I endeavor to Walk in the Spirit. I desire that my life would be Spirit filled, Spirit lead, I do not want to fulfil the lust of this flesh. I know what it’s like to be driven of the flesh, I know what it’s like to succumb to flesh ridden desires and wants and I know what it’s like to be compelled by the flesh to fulfil the lust of it. I will not walk in the flesh, but rather I will Walk in the Spirit. I will plug my spirit into your Spirit Father and I will walk out this life Walking in the Spirit. Lord I thank you for the opportunity to Walk in you. I thank you Lord for the privilege to Walk in the Spirit. I want my life to bring you glory Lord, I want my life to bring you honor. I will not shame you Lord. Keep my heart right, keep my mind, my thinking right Lord. I will cast down every imagination and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of you Father God and I will bring into captivity every thought to the obedience of my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. I commit, I submit my body a living sacrifice to you, holy and acceptable to you Father God, it is my reasonable service for all that you have done for me Lord. I will Walk in the Spirit and not fulfil the lust of this flesh. Bless you Father God, blessing and honor to you Lord. Bless you Father God, you are worthy of all praise. Bless you Father God, holy, righteous, true and pure. Bless you Father God, you are worthy of all praise. In Jesus name I pray. Amen

If You Have Not Made Jesus Lord Of Your Life Pray This Prayer:
Today Lord, right this very minute I acknowledge that I am a sinner and I need a Savior. Your word says that there is no other name under heaven by which a man or woman can be saved and that name is Jesus. Today I repent of every sin that I have ever committed, I repent of every sin that I have done and I ask you Jesus to come into my life and be my Lord and Savior. I believe that you Lord Jesus shed your precious blood and died for my sins, I am willing to turn from sin and live a life that is holy and pleasing in your sight. I now invite you Christ Jesus to come into my heart and live in me and be my personal Savior. I ask that you would fill me with your precious Holy Spirit, lead and guide me in this life Lord Jesus. Thank you for saving my soul. Amen.
