A war is raging...I am not talking about what is taking place on some foreign shore, or in some obscure place I am talking about the battle that we as people face each and everyday! We are at war! Scripture teaches us “For the Flesh desires what is against the Spirit, and the Spirt desires what is against the flesh; these are opposed to each other, so that you don’t do what you want.” (Galatians 5:17) In order to understand the battle you have to understand that apart from Christ, we are nothing. We from birth have a sin nature that is totally opposed to the things of God. Many times we think we know what we want! Many time the things of the flesh (worldly things) appear so enticing! Scripture teaches we don’t know what we want so often times we succumb to the things that glitter...we make and choice and take the way of the world! In doing this we step away from a Holy God and suffer separation anxiety because of the absence of Him in our lives! Walk in the spirit! Make God your first priority! Immerse your self in scripture! Spend time asking God to reveal things to you through His word! Pray without ceasing...and make sure that you walk in the Spirit! Find someone who will hold you accountable and walk the walk! If we “delight ourselves in the Lord, He will give us the desires of our heart!” Are you delighting yourself in Him today? Don’t trust your flesh...it is weak and does not know what it wants! Trust in your relationship with God! He will never leave nor forsake you! I love you all <><
