Topic: Two ways;their benefits and rewards Pt.2

Memorise: Gal 5:19-21
    Now the works of the flesh are clear, which are these: evil desire, unclean things, wrong use of the senses,

Message:
     What does it mean to walk in the flesh.?

1. When spiritual rules are not guiding you. I.e  when you don't obey the scripture no matter the excuse you have.

2. When you allow the évil desire to take over.
     Evil desire starts from the love and lust for the worldly material things. 1tim 6:9-10

   But those who have a desire for wealth are falling into danger, and are taken as in a net by a number of foolish and damaging desires, through which men are overtaken by death and destruction.

10  For the love of money is a root of all evil: and some whose hearts were fixed on it have been turned away from the faith, and been wounded with unnumbered sorrows.

3. When you do things that are against the spirit in you.
    The flesh can't accept the ways of the flesh, so he will not accept it.

  E.g When you should wake 5am to have your devotion flesh will say sleep a bit because you need rest so that you will not fall sick
         Maybe someone needs helps help around you flesh will tell you don't do it because you can also need that thing....
        And at times the flesh can do somethings which looks spiritual; leading praise worship with a mind that am better and more professional than others. Preaching, leading prayer section etc
     
4. When you begin to see or experience the works of the flesh either once in a while or all the time. Gal.5:19-20

Note:
   Flesh can never be tamed, no matter how spiritual you are if you walk in his path he will bring down.

Prayer:
   Help me to put an end to the work of the flesh in the name of Jésus.
