Ephesians 2v3 … among whom also we all once conducted ourselves in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind, and were by nature children of wrath, just as the others.
The greatest enemy of the Believer is not satan, neither are they demons; it is the power of the flesh. The flesh is an instrument of our own destruction if we do not daily have a good grasp on its influence; it daily seeks to become the motivation of our actions, therefore we must daily die to it. Those who are led by the flesh are enemies of God, but the spiritually minded have come a step closer to God – and to be spiritually minded is to walk in the very precepts of The LORD in His Word.
We must know that lusts of the flesh are not limited to sexually immoral tendencies, nor is it summed up in the love of money; it includes all things that move us to action through the power of the physical senses – sight, touch, feel, sight and hearing. We must also be wary of our desires, constantly allowing the Holy Ghost in us to vet them and judge their true origins.
Let’s keep ourselves saved by constantly allowing the work of sanctification to be done in us thoroughly by the Spirit as Apostle Paul declares in Romans 12v1-2
May the power of the Highest come upon each and everyone of us that we will be able to behold Him more and more in His Glory because it is by this indeed we will be changed.
In Jesus’ Name I pray, Amen
