(Galatians 5:24-25 NKJV) And those who are Christ’s have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires. {25} If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit.
Doing God’s will, vs.our own will, can be very complicated if we are not letting ourselves be led by the Spirit.
At times our flesh will desire something and the Spirit of God is saying “No”! But because we love what the flesh is wanting or what it desires, we will ignore the Spirit and His promptings and give in to the flesh.
After the fact, we always feel terrible for not listening and wished we had made the right choice.
This is very common in the lives of all believers, having to fight off the desires of the flesh so that we can be led by the Spirit. Sometimes the fight is a little easier than others, depending on how badly we want what we can’t have.
Keep that flesh crucified and we will eventually see why God does what He does when He does it.
