Galatians 5:25 (NKJV) 25 If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit.<\/p>\n

In the previous few days, we have learned a lot about \u201cthe flesh\u201d.<\/p>\n

We now understand that living by the flesh is dangerous, to say the very least.<\/p>\n

God desires that we live by the Spirit.<\/p>\n

If we live by the Spirit, we will also walk in the Spirit, as stated in the verse above.<\/p>\n

Let\u2019s look at what that means.<\/p>\n

To walk in the Spirit means that we honor and follow the leading of the Holy Spirit in our lives.<\/p>\n

We no longer make choices based on our own preferences, but by what we know pleases God.<\/p>\n

We set aside what we<\/i> want, replacing it with what God<\/i> wants.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s all about obedience.<\/p>\n

God has told us that obedience is better than sacrifice, meaning that to obey Him is better than simply going through the motions of \u201cbeing a Christian\u201d.<\/p>\n

What happens when we learn to walk in the Spirit?<\/p>\n

Our lives change.<\/p>\n

We begin to walk in the will of God, obeying Him instead of fulfilling the lusts and desires of the flesh.<\/p>\n

Our satisfaction comes from obeying Him and following His ways instead of our ways and the ways of the world.<\/p>\n

Galatians 5:16 (NKJV) 16 I say then: Walk in the Spirit, and you shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh.<\/p>\n

As we learn to walk in the Spirit, we will no longer wrestle with chasing after the things that push us away from God and bring death.<\/p>\n

Our struggles with temptation will decrease. We will learn how to overcome the things that tempt us by letting God show us how to defeat them once and for all.<\/p>\n

This typically doesn\u2019t happen overnight. It takes time for us to fully grasp this and put it into action.<\/p>\n

But as we determine in our hearts to do what we know is pleasing to God, it will become easier and easier.<\/p>\n

And a day will come when we look back and barely recognize the person we used to be.<\/p>\n
