“I say then: Walk in the Spirit, and you shall not fulfill the lust of
the flesh." Galatians 5:16 (NKJV)
We live in a sick and sinful world. Trying to live in a way that pleases God can sometimes seem
impossible. Everywhere we look so many influences are attempting to
steal our attention from Christ. From the content of our favorite shows to the
billboards and ads we drive by every day; being righteous is a difficult
lifestyle to maintain. But thank God that we have a divine Helper to walk this
thing out with us.
Paul tells us that if we walk (live) in the Spirit, we won’t
give in to our sinful desires. In the Holy Spirit God has given us all we need
to live the Christian life effectively. He will direct you when you’re lost. He
will tell you when you’re right and wrong. The Spirit will bring scriptures
back to your memory, if you study your Bible diligently. Having a Christ
centered church home and Christian friends help, but the Holy Spirit is the One
who gives all we need to please God and live our best lives possible. The
Father knew we could not do it on our own so he gave us a Helper. Wow, God really is love!
