LIVE BY THE HOLY SPIRIT TO DEFEAT THE FLESH

What shall it profit man if he gains the whole world, I mean if he enjoys all the pleasures and wealth on earth and loose his soul? Obviously, he will gain nothing. The world and everything in it is coming to a an end as we are aware. Why then do we spend much time on the perishable things of the world to the detriment of our eternal glory?

Often we say, "But for this I think I'm serving the Lord well".  But for the gossip, the envy, the fornication, the thievery, etc you think you are serving the Lord well? The petty things we ignore today may live to hurt our salvation tomorrow.

It's about time we worshipped the Lord in truth and in spirit to be able to overcome the desires of the flesh. Gal 5:16 says, 'So I say, live by the SPIRIT and you will not gratify the desires of the flesh'. We can please God only when we deny ourselves the desires of the flesh by living by the SPIRIT. "Those who are in the realm of the flesh cannot please God", ROM 8:8.  I pray for the touch of the Holy Spirit in your life as you desire to make Him your companion. To be an example of Christ requires us to have him living in us in the form of the Holy Spirit and when the Spirit comes he leads us into all truths.
