QT - Life in the Spirit

Gal 5: Life by the Spirit
13 You, my brothers and sisters, were called to be free. But do not use your freedom to indulge the sinful nature [a]; rather, serve one another humbly in love. 14 For the entire law is fulfilled in keeping this one command: "Love your neighbor as yourself." [b] 15 If you keep on biting and devouring each other, watch out or you will be destroyed by each other.
16 So I say, walk 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 that you are not to do whatever [c] you want. 18 But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the law.
19 The acts of the sinful nature are obvious: sexual immorality, impurity and debauchery; 20 idolatry and witchcraft; hatred, discord, jealousy, fits of rage, selfish ambition, dissensions, factions 21 and envy; drunkenness, orgies, and the like. I warn you, as I did before, that those who live like this will not inherit the kingdom of God.
22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23 gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law. 24 Those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the sinful nature with its passions and desires. 25 Since we live by the Spirit, let us keep in step with the Spirit. 26 Let us not become conceited, provoking and envying each other.

Our life in the Spirit... If we obey the scriptures of God, He will prevail. This is how God wants us to live. : rather, serve one another humbly in love. 16 So I say, walk by the Spirit, and you will not gratify the desires of the sinful nature. 22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23 gentleness and self-control

These scriptures are so important. I need to make sure I put them in the front of my mind every day. That I act upon them. That I remember how God wants me to live. If I stay focused on Him, my sinful nature will not win... God will. Satan will be lost in my life. God will shine from my heart.

These are the things I want out of my life. I want to have a spirit of love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control. These are what I will be focusing on this week.
