Gal. 5:16-17 “Walk in the spirit, and ye shall not fulfill the lusts of the flesh. For the flesh lusteth against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh”
Walking in the Spirit is a continuous process, one step at a time. It means that for every new situation into which every new step brings you, you must side positively with the Holy Spirit, to keep the flesh in the place of death. I want to emphasize the need to side with the Lord, for we are not only to side ourselves “to be dead indeed unto sin,” but we are to side ourselves “alive unto God through Jesus Christ our Lord” (Rom. 6: 11).
It is our enjoyment of the resurrection life of the Lord Jesus Christ, through siding positively with His presence, which sets us free from the law of sin and death.
