Spiritual Battle

     Did you know that our flesh and our spirit are at war? It’s a battle. Our human minds, feelings and emotions get us into trouble. We head down the wrong path. Say yes when we should say no. Our tongues move ahead of our spirit and we get ourselves in trouble.

     How do we learn to walk with the Holy Spirit? Knowing and studying God’s Word will bring answers to life. The Word is alive and speaks directly to our spirits. God’s Word is sent from heaven for our benefit. Jesus saved us on the cross and we are going to heaven! Besides the greatest gift ever given, He promises us the Holy Spirit to be with us throughout the rest of our lives.

     The Holy Spirit teaches, guides, comforts, and intercedes for us. The Spirit wants the best for us, to keep us healthy in body, mind and soul. Let’s listen to Him and win the battle today.

So I say, walk by the Spirit, and you will not gratify the desires of the flesh. For the flesh desires what is contrary to the Spirit and the Spirit what is contrary to the flesh. They are in conflict with each other so that you are not to do whatever you want. Galatians 5:16-17

Lord,

Let Your Holy Spirit be the leader in our lives today. Lead us with love and truth and help us to listen and to walk side-by-side with You.

In Jesus name,

Amen
