Matthew 12:28 (NKJV) 28 But if I cast out demons by the Spirit of God, surely the kingdom of God has come upon you<\/span>.<\/p>\n

As children of God, it is critically important that we understand how the transformation in our lives takes place.<\/p>\n

God\u2019s word shows and teaches us everything we need to know about life and shows us the path that God wants us to walk.<\/p>\n

But if we are to be \u201csuccessful\u201d in walking that path, we need to know that it can only be accomplished by the power of, and our obedience to, the Holy Spirit.<\/p>\n

You see, the flesh cannot overcome the flesh.<\/p>\n

When our flesh rises up and wants to convince us to stray, or to ignore the conviction we are feeling, the Holy Spirit is the One who gives us the power to overcome the flesh.<\/p>\n

As Jesus stated in Matthew 12:26, a kingdom divided against itself cannot stand. Satan does not cast out Satan.<\/p>\n

It is only the Holy Spirit who leads, guides, chastens, and corrects.<\/p>\n

So, what does this mean to us as followers of Christ?<\/p>\n

It means that we cannot expect, nor does God expect us, to be able to overcome our sins and the things that keep us bound, by our own power.<\/p>\n

Hence, what Paul stated to the Philippians.<\/p>\n

Philippians 4:13 (NKJV) 13 I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.<\/p>\n

It is not by might nor power that we accomplish what God has set before us, but by the power of the Holy Spirit.<\/p>\n

And once we understand that, it will forever change us.<\/p>\n

Let us wholly surrender to the leading and the power of the Holy Spirit.<\/p>\n
