" 16. I say then: Walk in the Spirit, and
you shall not fulfill the lusts of the flesh. 17. 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. 18. But if you are led in the Spirit you are not under the law. 19. Now the works of the flesh are evident, which are:
adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lewdness, 20. idolatry,
sorcery, hatred, contentions, jealousies, outbursts of wrath, selfish ambitions,
dissensions, heresies, 21. 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. 22. But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace,
longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23.
gentleness, self-control. Against such there is no law. 24. And
those who are Christ's have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires. 25. If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the
Spirit. 26. Let us not become conceited, provoking one another,
envying one another."
"Walk in the Spirit and you will not fulfill the lusts of the flesh". If we as Christians walk in the Spirit we can overcome the flesh. I always like to open my Bible every morning and read the fruits of the Spirit. I pray everyday that God will give me the strength and the courage to live out the fruits of the Spirit so that I may please and glorify Him. I want to bring my Savior glory in every thing I do and say.
Until the nets are full,
