ClosePhil Helfer - March 8, 2020
Walk By The Spirit
Walk by the Spirit of God (Galatians 5 continued) Continuing in our series in Galatians, Live Free or Die, Pastor Phil highlighted a few more truths from Scripture. If we start our walk with the Lord by faith but attempt to mature by our own strength/rule keeping then Jesus is no longer a benefit to us… a scary place to be. Instead we are invited to an approach to life that works; “through love, serve one another and thus the Law is fulfilled”. How? What does this kind of life look like? We learn how to walk by the Spirit of God -not by flesh-. Flesh is: · self-interested · drives us · destructive The promise from God is that one day we will be getting a new body, in the mean-time we walk by the Spirit of God. Holy Spirit is: · from God, indeed is God · fuels the New Creation in me · protects us · guides us · empowers us In order to walk by the Spirit I need to a. Orient myself toward God (Romans 12.1), b. Orient my life around truth (Rom. 12.2), c. Release control of my life over to God. And 3 more principles gleaned from Galatians 5:24-26: 1. Recognize sin, 2. Reorient toward God, 3. Resist temptation. And remember, “the Spirit will not do the walking for us, so orient yourself to God and walk by the Spirit”.
