HOW TO WALK IN THE
SPIRIT
Gal 5: 16 This I say
then, WALK IN THE SPIRIT, and ye shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh.
Gal 5: 25 IF WE LIVE
IN THE SPIRIT, LET US ALSO WALK IN THE SPIRIT.
Rom 8: 1 ¶ There is
therefore now no condemnation to THEM WHICH ARE IN CHRIST JESUS, WHO WALK NOT
AFTER THE FLESH, BUT AFTER THE SPIRIT.
Why so many believers do not believe that sin is dead is
because they have been trapped by religion. All of us were there before but now
we know better .If you approach the revelation of Christ with a religious mind
set we will miss it. If we do not believe that sin is dead then we do not
believe that Christ resurrected. It does not take the threat of sin and hell
fire to help believers keep themselves under control. It takes the Holy Spirit
at work in the recreated human spirit to live victoriously over the flesh. Many
believers are ignorantly trying to overcome sin that Christ had died for
neglecting the abilities of the recreated human spirit to subdue the flesh (1Co 15:3) For I delivered unto you first of
all that which I also received, HOW THAT CHRIST DIED FOR OUR SINS ACCORDING TO
THE SCRIPTURES
…The Bible says that
we should WALK IN THE SPIRIT so that we should not fulfill the lust of the
flesh .Period.
Any man who believes in Christ comes into Christ and
receives a New Life…eternal life. Automatically that person comes in to live.
Christ is life. When we become alive in Christ we star living spiritually. To
live in the Spirit is to be spiritually alive. Any man who is in Christ is in
the Spirit. 2Co 3:17 NOW THE LORD IS
THAT SPIRIT: and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty. To be in
the spirit does not mean closing your eyes during worship. EVERY BELIVER IS
IN THE SPIRIT BECAUSE WE ARE IN CHRIST.
A believer may be living in the Spirit but lacks the sensitivity
to the Holy Spirit to walk in the Spirit The word walk came from the Greek word
per-ee-pat-eh'-o which means to walk large especially as a
proof of ability, be occupied with. We should know that there are abilities
that God put in us through the Holy Spirit that we have to be occupied with as
a proof that the Holy Spirit is in us. This is why Apostle Paul said in (Phil 4: 13) I can do all things THROUGH
CHRIST WHICH STRENGTHENETH ME.
To walk in the Spirit does not mean to walk through life
like a helpless son whose father and mother are dead. To walk in the Spirit is
not to live in the condemnation of the dead sin but to walk in the full
assurance that Christ has redeemed us and given us the Holy Spirit who has
invigorated our recreated human spirit to bear fruit. We have to get used to
Holy Spirit so that we could walk in the spirit. It is not living with low self-esteem
but revealing the boldness that we have in Christ. It means growing in the
knowledge of Christ. It is to preach the Gospel at every opportunity. It means
declaring who we are in the light of Christ. It means (Jude
1 :20) But ye, beloved, building up yourselves on your most holy faith, PRAYING
IN THE HOLY GHOST,: By so doing we cannot fulfill the lust of the flesh
because we are occupied with the abilities that are in our spirit through the
Holy Spirit winning souls. ..
Thank you Jesus.
