Title: Warning against greed (Galatians 05:16-26)
Look at Galatians 5:17. The lust of the flesh is against the Spirit, and the lust of the Spirit is against the flesh, because these two oppose each other, so that you cannot do what you want. I had eyes that looked at me honestly. And he knew how to overcome the work of that body. What is the way to get rid of the evil works of the flesh? From now on, we will be freed from our old disposition that opposes the Word of God and the dominion of the flesh, and will be governed by the Holy Spirit. W.H. Griffith Thomas said that it is through the great power of the Holy Spirit that we can overcome the power of sin that is ingrained in us, not because of our efforts. The Apostle Paul also exhorts you to walk by the Spirit, and you will not fulfill the lusts of the flesh (Galatians 5:16). To follow the guidance of the Holy Spirit, first, we must lead our lives centered on Jesus Christ.
Second, we must be in God's Word by reading it and keeping it in our hearts.
Being filled with the Holy Spirit that is not based on the Word is self-deception.
Third, no matter how much the Holy Spirit guides us, it is of no use if we do not move ourselves.
Therefore, we must obey the guidance of the Holy Spirit. I pray that today will also be a blessed day when we offer our whole lives as living sacrifices to the holy God according to the guidance of the Holy Spirit, who is wary of foolish greed within us. .
