Following after our flesh is a dangerous and deadly way to live. But on the other hand, following and sowing to our spirit makes life’s journey an enjoyable one! This doesn’t mean we will never have problems and trials or that all the pressures of everyday living will go away! It just means we will have GOD’S grace in our life to help us live as overcomers. We’ll be able to be stable in the midst of life’s storms. (YESHUA will be our rock!)
As believers in MESSIAH YESHUA, it’s important to realize that GOD’S Spirit dwells in us, but that doesn’t mean our flesh is dead or that sin is dead! They are not!
Our verse today explains we can live as though we’re dead to sin! It’s done by starving our flesh and feeding our spirit!
Romans 6:11-12
So you also should consider yourselves to be dead to the power of sin and alive to GOD through MESSIAH YESHUA. Do not let sin control the way you live; do not give in to sinful desires.
Let’s start nourishing our Spirit today and every day by meditating on GOD’S Word and fellowshipping with our King of Kings! Let our spirit keep our flesh in its proper place, crucified with MESSIAH!
Read Galatians 2:20.
