Bible Verse of The Day – 11-26-22

Romans 8:8 (NKJV) 8 Those who are in the realm of the flesh cannot please God.

Many times, living the life of a believer, we need to tell our flesh, “No”!

The flesh will often make us think everything is wrong, nothing is going right.

We have to remind it of the good things. The things that we have been blessed with! The things which we have, but for some reason we have overlooked, moving on to the one thing we may think we are missing out on.

It can drive us to the point where we feel depressed and without.

The flesh will quickly forget the things that God has blessed us with. It likes to immediately move on to the next thing.

It doesn’t like to stay in one place for too long. As soon as it gets what it wants in one area of our life, it will move on to the next desire it craves.

It wants at all times, moving from one agenda to the next to be fed constantly.

The flesh can be very needy, demanding and selfish. It wants what it wants always. And it wants it NOW!

How do we fix it? How do we slow it down? How do we keep it in its place?

We tell it, “no”, by making it submit to the word of God and what He says.

WE stop it from crying and looking at the things it doesn’t have, and we open its eyes, teaching it to be content with what it does have.

We have to be firm with our flesh and not let it get the best of us. The flesh should never drive us. We need to stay in control of it.

If we are feeling this depression set in at times, we need to shut that flesh down and let the Spirit of God take over.

We cannot please Him when we let the flesh drive us.
