Let us walk in the spirit......

Gal 5:25 "If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit."

"If we live in the spirit..."
do we live in the spirit? do we fully realize what it means to live in the spirit? the key to living in the spirit is by dying daily and by remembering that if we do not live in the spirit we live in the flesh(Gal 5:16). As we look at the scriptures we see the examples of walking in the spirit. We know from the last post that we are to go where the spirit goes, that is the first part of walking in the spirit.
before we can walk though, we must also live. Remember we live in the spirit because we are free in Christ and redeemed(Gal 5;1, 1 Cr 6:20, 1 Cr 7:23.
"Let us also walk in the spirit"
this is the key if we live then we can walk. I wanna challenge my own self to see if I live in the spirit am I willing to live int he spirit and die to myself daily? am I willing to deny everything that is of this world? I long to walk in the spirit.
This is only the beginning, walking is the first step just like a child which brings me to another point, when we walk will fall but we must remember that the Lord is forgiving. I have int he past struggled with this very thing I could be walking in the spirit just fine when I stumble and I feel messed up. Butt his time I am trying to recommit my self to walking in the spirit and the Lord. Already I feel a s spiritual battle brewing. The spirit is real, we must walk daily in it, if we do not we will fail in our walk.
Thank you for reading the first of some post...
