Spirit Walks

I say then, walk by the Spirit and you will not carry out the desire of the flesh. For the flesh desires what is against the Spirit, and the Spirit desires what is against the flesh; these are opposed to each other, so that you don’t do what you want. But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the law.
Galatians 5:16‭-‬18 HCSB

Walking in the Spirit requires faith. Yet this faith is rewarded. We can trust the Lord to deal with those who treat us unfairly. When He is our source and supply He gives justice. However, if we oscillate between fear and faith; controlling things ourselves or trusting Him with hands off; keeping our confession about Him and not talking about the problem, then He moves.

Walking in the Spirit is walking in the new life Christ gives us. Walking in the flesh resorts to law and trying to win favour by what we do. There is nothing that we can do to win favour through religious ritual. However, by delighting in Him and allowing Him to be our all releases Him to work miracles on our behalf.

We cannot do both. The flesh is death, the Spirit is life. Oscillating between both leaves you ragged. Not a good idea. Come to rest and decide to trust! Amen!
