YIELD TO THE SPIRIT
Galatians 5:16-17, 25 (GNB)
What I say is this: let the Spirit direct your lives, and you will not satisfy the desires of the human nature. For what our human nature wants is opposed to what the Spirit wants, and what the Spirit wants is opposed to what our human nature wants. These two are enemies, and this means that you cannot do what you want to do.*The Spirit has given us life; he must also control our lives.
The key to living a victorious life as a son or daughter of God is by yielding to the leading of the Spirit of God. It was by the Spirit of God that you accepted Jesus as Lord (1Cor.12:3) and it is only by the Spirit of God that you will be able to continually walk in the Lordship of Jesus over your life. God will never ask us to do something that He has not empowered us to do and all the power we need for victory and dominion in every area of our lives is in the Spirit of God. As our helper, we have to be conscious of Him
and continually yield ourselves to Him.

We cannot live righteously by trying to obey the Law. Rather, it is as we yield to the Spirit that we live righteously, (Rom.8:4). God is always at work in you (by His Spirit), making you desire to do what pleases Him and making you able to do it, (Phil.2:13).
“As you yield freely and fully to the dynamic life and power of the Holy Spirit, you will abandon the cravings of your self-life. For your self-life craves the things that offend the Holy Spirit and hinder him from living free within you! And the Holy Spirit’s intense cravings hinder your old self-life from dominating you! So then, the two incompatible and conflicting forces within you are your self-life of the flesh and the new creation life of the Spirit. *We must live in the Holy Spirit and follow after him,” (Gal.5:16-17, 25, TPT).
Prayer:
Dear Father, I yield myself to your Spirit. Lead me, guide me and strengthen me to continually walk in your ways and truth.
Good morning family.
