Galatians 5:16-18 (NIV)
“So I say, live by the Spirit, and you will not gratify the desires of the sinful nature. 17 For the sinful nature desires what is contrary to the Spirit, and the Spirit what is contrary to the sinful nature. They are in conflict with each other…..”
“So I say, live by the Spirit, and you will not gratify the desires of the sinful nature. 17 For the sinful nature desires what is contrary to the Spirit, and the Spirit what is contrary to the sinful nature. They are in conflict with each other…..”
1 John 2:16 (NIV)
16 For everything
in the world--the cravings of sinful man, the lust of his eyes and the boasting
of what he has and does--comes not from the Father but from the world.”
Father, help us to be
consciously aware and alert to the spiritual conflict in which we struggle
every day. There is this incessant battle by outward enemies and inward foes to
discourage and defeat us in our daily Christian living. The
victory over the world, the flesh and the Devil is only through our focus and
faith in you. “This is the victory that
has overcome the world, even our faith.” 1 John 5:4 (NIV)
So Father we prayer for
victory today, the joy of triumph, and the peace that comes after battles hard
fought and won. “…..thanks be to God! He
gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ. 1 Corinthians 15:57 (NIV)
We thank you Father in
the strong name of our Champion and Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ. Amen.
