(John 3:6 NKJV) “That which is born of the flesh is flesh, and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.
The Spirit of God is birthed in us when we repent of our sins and we ask His Son, Jesus Christ to be our Lord and Savior. He comes in and, from there, we let Him change our heart and transform us into the person He wants us to be.
The flesh will begin to change as we let God’s Spirit grow within us, through reading His Word and praying.
The difference between the flesh and the Spirit is as God’s word says…
(Galatians 5:19-23 NKJV) Now the works of the flesh are evident, which are: adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lewdness, {20} idolatry, sorcery, hatred, contentions, jealousies, outbursts of wrath, selfish ambitions, dissensions, heresies, {21} envy, murders, drunkenness, revelries, and the like; of which I tell you beforehand, just as I also told you in time past, that those who practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of God.
{22} But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, {23} gentleness, self-control. Against such there is no law.
When you are born of the Spirit, you have flesh and Spirit living together in your body. In order to have peace, God’s Spirit must be ruler. Therefore the flesh must come under submission to the Spirit of God.
Let God’s Spirit be the ruler in your heart today!! Amen.
