Flesh
Romans 8:5-6(NKJV)
5For those who live according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh, but those who live according to the Spirit, the things of the Spirit.
6For to be carnally minded is death, but to be spiritually minded is life and peace.
1 Thessalonians 5:23-24(TMSG)
23May God Himself, the God who makes everything holy and whole, make you holy and whole, put you together—spirit, soul, and body—and keep you fit for the coming of our Master, Jesus Christ.
24The One who called you is completely dependable. If he said it, He’ll do it!
If we could ever really get it that we are spirit beings more than flesh. I tend to think of us as a caterpillar.We live for a time in a flesh cocoon just for a season the bulk of our being will live in a spirit realm. So why do we rely on our feelings so much? Do we believe that God will do what He says he will do? I think most of the time we don't. He (God) created all of this, so couldn't he take care of us? He made us to be like Him. Lets take time to learn what that is. We studied last night that its not about the answer but about the question. Who is God to you today not tomorrow or yesterday but today. once we can focus there maybe we truly can walk and live by the Spirit and not the flesh.
Be a blessing today, Sir Gregory
