Fruits of the spirit: Works of the flesh


Galatians 6:7-8

If we sow for the right reason for the glory of God, we will reap the blessing's of God.

Romans 8:9 But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his.

Earthy strength is weak, and cannot fight the spiritual forces in this world to get closer to the Lord. If we face weakness with the Lord Jesus Christ the power of the Lord is greater and you will turn away from the lust of the flesh.

II Corinthians 12: 10-11  And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me. 10 Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in necessities, in persecutions, in distresses for Christ's sake: for when I am weak, then am I strong

I John 2:15  For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world.   

How will we know the glory of the Lord that lives in us? If we sow the word of God in our hearts, we will show the glory of God on the outside, because power is greater than our flesh.

Romans 12:1 I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service.   

The carnal flesh doesn't fully comprehend the nature of God's will until, we prepare the heart in holiness to destroy the weakness of the flesh to live holy in God's eyes inside and out.

Job 37:5 God thundereth marvellously with his voice; great things doeth he, which we cannot comprehend.

If we keep the Lord sayings we, will fear his judgments and remain in the will of God.  

James 3:2  For in many things we offend all. If any man offend not in word, the same is a perfect man, and able also to bridle the whole body.

Your month can change the way you present yourself before man, even if they are Christians, or sinners.

Ecclesiastes 5:6 Suffer not thy mouth to cause thy flesh to sin; neither say thou before the angel, that it was an error: wherefore should God be angry at thy voice, and destroy the work of thine hands?

What drives you to live holy?

Proverbs 9:10 The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom: and the knowledge of the holy is understanding.

The true faithful servants of the Lord Jesus Christ, will see the change in others that are falling short of holiness.  

Proverb 10:9 He that walketh uprightly walketh surely: but he that perverteth his ways shall be known.

Living by the Spirit
Galatians 5: Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness, 20 Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies, 21 Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.

22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, 23 Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law. 24 And they that are Christ's have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts.25 If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit. 26 Let us not be desirous of vain glory, provoking one another, envying one another.
Look deeply into your life, and Examine yourselves, if you are truly living in the will of God? are you living Holy for the Lord? As it is written:

I Peter 1:16 Because it is written, Be ye holy; for I am holy.
Hebrew 12:14 Follow peace with all men, and holiness, without which no man shall see the Lord:
