How can we do these things on our own, if not by the presence and power of his Holy Spirit, God’s Words of truth (Bible)? Yes, it is not of our own volition, but by being filled by his Spirit. Thank you God, for sending your son, thank you Jesus for sending your Spirit, and thank you Spirt, for living within us.

Fixing our eyes on Jesus, and we won’t accomplish the desires of the flesh. (See note below on walking in the Spirit)

Walk by the Spirit. All believers have the presence of the indwelling Holy Spirit (cf. Ro 8:9; 1Co 6:19, 20) as the personal power for living to please God. The form of the Gr. verb translated “walk” indicates continuous action, or a habitual lifestyle. Walking also implies progress; as a believer submits to the Spirit’s control—that is, responds in obedience to the simple commands of Scripture—he grows in his spiritual life (see notes on Ro 8:13; Eph 5:18; Col 3:16). the flesh. This is not simply the physical body, but includes the mind, will, and emotions which are all subject to sin. It refers in general to our unredeemed humanness. See notes on Ro 7:5; 8:23; cf. v. 13.

Jesus was the one and only perfect sacrifice, that was acceptable to God for all of humanity, that was promised when Adam and Ever were banished from the Garden. He was the snake crusher, who would also be crushed. He would rise from that crushing blow, that would offer life eternal, to all who live by faith in him only.

Oh Lord, when I am in that quiet place and feel your presence, I am at peace. When I can sit quietly, and hear your voice through your word, and be filled with your spirit, my world at rest. Help me keep my eyes fixed on Jesus, and not take my gaze away from him as I go about my day.
