Good morning!
Galatians 5:16 NIV
“So I say, walk by the Spirit, and you will not gratify the desires of the flesh.”
1 Peter 1:15-16 says “… just as he who called you is holy, so be holy in all you do; for it is written: “Be holy, because I am holy.”” Today, we’re cleansed by the blood of the Lamb of God and can come before the throne of grace through prayer. We’ve received His righteousness, we can stand before God, but we need the Word of God to convict us and help us lead a holier life.
The Counselor is here for us. He can help us glorify Christ. In 1 Peter 2:9 the Apostle said “…you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, God’s special possession, that you may declare the praises of Him who called you out of darkness into His wonderful light.” If you stay in the Word of God, the Word of God will stay in you. If you yield to the Spirit, the Spirit will have His way with you. If you stay in prayer, you can seek and find God’s will for your life, and if you dwell on the wonders of the cross, you can avoid the sins which so easily entangle you, and slow down your Christian walk.
These things can help us lead a life that pleases God, and pursuing holiness is always pleasing to God. Now we need to live like it. May God richly bless you!!!
