What’s the first thing you think of when you wake up in the morning? A cup of coffee? How comfortable your bed is? Your list of things to do? Thanking God for the new day and His blessings? Every decision and step we take each day is driven and determined by one of two driving forces—your flesh or your spirit..
The flesh is loud and demanding. It likes to have its own way, and it sure doesn’t give up easily. It may not seem like it, but you have control over what controls you. You aren’t meant to let your flesh rule your life—you’re meant to walk in the spirit and live on a higher level, where victory reigns and righteousness rules..
You can walk in the spirit and be guided by the Holy Spirit 24/7..
The Spirit of God is in you right now. You may not feel like it, but He is there—speaking to you, directing you to freedom and blessing..
It won’t happen overnight. It is a transformation from one degree of glory to another and one move of obedience to another..
– Walk in the Spirit by Throwing Off Hindrances.
Don’t sit around wondering if you should stop sinning or cast the devil out of your life—get rid of it! You weren’t created to be a slave to anything.
Sexual vice, impurity, unholy desires, greed, anger, bad feelings toward others, cursing, slander, foul-mouth abuse and shameful utterances, adultery, fornication, idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, strife, envy, murders, drunkenness. NOW is the time to rid your life of it as fast as possible..
– Walk in the Spirit by Sowing to the Spirit.
If you don’t give God time, natural voices will overwhelm His Spirit in your life. You have things you need to do in the natural—but they shouldn’t take up all your time. Give your spirit the opportunity to feed on the Word of God, fellowship with Him, and build yourself up in faith. It doesn’t take a lot of time. Give the Lord a tithe of your time—just an hour or two each day. You might say, I don’t have an hour! But the truth is—you’ll make time for anything if it’s important enough..
– Walk in the Spirit by Praying in the Spirit Daily.
The most powerful way to begin walking in the spirit is to start praying in the spirit—it is the gateway to living life above what you have ever known. Praying in the spirit accomplishes so much all at once..
– Walk in the Spirit by Obeying the Promptings of the Holy Spirit.
The Holy Spirit is ALWAYS speaking to you. There’s an answer to every problem you’re facing today—whether financial, health or family related. So many times, people will say I’d go to Africa or China if God asked me to, yet they won’t obey Him in the small things. They won’t forgive someone; stop ungodly language, stop watching ungodly TV programs; they won’t spend time with Him daily. Everything God tells you to do is important. So, tune in to the Spirit of the Lord in all things, even when He’s telling you something that seems small, or something you don’t want to hear..
“So I say, let the Holy Spirit guide your lives. Then you won’t be doing what your sinful nature craves…….”(Galatians 5:16)

“Or again, how can anyone enter a strong man’s house and carry off his possessions unless he first ties up the strong man? Then he can rob his house.” —Matthew
