Walk By The Spirit…
Having made mention of our feelings about the Apostle Paul on a number of occasions, it is not uncommon to remind the readers we respect and look to Paul’s teachings as our experience is a reflection of his trials, tribulations and rebirth.
The past few days have seen great change not only in our house but in our world. The confusion by some people is easy to explain, with other people it is a little more challenging. When we walk in the Spirit our flesh is pushed aside and the Light of Jesus Christ can be easily seen by anyone around us. Not only can they see it, they experience His presence, His love and His awesome Power. These witnesses can also see the humility required in the vessel being used.
Boastful bullies rarely succeed. People attempting to push aside divine intervention will always lose ground, they will always lose their seat and some will lose their lives while attempting to push back against God and His decision for a given situation. Those that remain steadfast in their belief, steadfast in their prayer vigil and steadfast in His love will see a glorious victory. The victory will be seen every time, in every situation no matter how great or small. Remaining in the Light is the only way to see, experience and live in these victories.

But I say, walk by the Spirit, and you will not carry out the desire of the flesh. For the flesh sets its desire against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; for these are in opposition to one another, so that you may not do the things that you please. But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the Law. Now the deeds of the flesh are evident, which are: immorality, impurity, sensuality, idolatry, sorcery, enmities, strife, jealousy, outbursts of anger, disputes, dissensions, factions, envying, drunkenness, carousing, and things like these, of which I forewarn you, just as I have forewarned you, that those who practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of God. But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control; against such things there is no law. Now those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires.
If we live by the Spirit, let us also walk by the Spirit. Let us not become boastful, challenging one another, envying one another. ~Galatians 5:16-26
Either the Gospel is divine inspiration, the Word of God teaching us how to live and how to be a reflection of Him, or it’s nothing more than a historical account of events.
