And they that are Christ’s have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts. “Galatians 5:24′

Galatians 5 is about freedom in Christ and living by the Holy Spirit rather than our sinful nature. In this powerful letter, Paul proclaims the reality of our liberty in Christ freedom from the law and the power of sin, and freedom to serve our living Lord. Salvation is for everyone, and who calls on the name of Jesus Christ as the Lord will be saved “Romans 10:13′.

We belong to Jesus Christ when we accept Him as our Lord and Saviour. We cannot proclaim that we are Christ’s follower if we still hold on to our sinful desires. A true Christian must turn from sin and nail their passion to do sin to the cross, as the passion is dead and no longer holds power. In the faith of Jesus Christ, we have a new life that is free from sin’s power and led by the Holy Spirit. Although we may not always be tempted by evil to sin, with the Spirit of God in our hearts, we are no longer obliged to do so.

Commit our sinful tendencies to God and crucify them daily. Embrace the Holy Spirit and follow His lead so that we can call ourselves Christ’s children and live our lives in His glorious fulfilling name.

Let us Pray:

Dear Lord, almighty Heavenly Father, please help me overcome my sinful desires when I am attempted by evil. Help me live by the Holy Spirit rather than my sinful nature. I ask that You cast out all lusts that are in my heart and crucify them so they no longer have power over me. LORD, bless me with strength and keep me close to You.I pray this throughout the mighty glorious fulfilling name of Jesus Christ. Amen.

Much LoVe, JoY, Peace and Blessings through Jesus Christ, our almighty wonderful, infinite loving, glorious, dear Lord, Saviour and Redeemer, in who we faithfully abide, trust, believe, and abundantly do receive throughout His marvelous righteous Word and His truth fulfilling Holy Spirit.
