Impossible to sin! #30

This is a very simple devotion today. Read this verse:

Galatians 5:16

16 I say then: Walk in the Spirit, and you shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh.

Did you know that if we are walking in the Spirit it is impossible to sin? That is exactly what this verse is telling us. If we are in tune with the Spirit, he will warn us of sin and we will be obedient. Now here is the rest of the story. We may have the Spirit in us but we may not listen to His counsel and choose to sin. Just stop for a moment and think about this simple teaching.

Again if we are in step with the Spirit we will listen and obey thus we will not sin. This does not mean that you are not a Christian if you sin, it does mean that you are ignoring or supressing the counsel of the Holy Spirit.

So here is the question this morning for each one of us....are we walking hand in hand with the Spirit or are we choosing when we want Him and when we don't????

I am praying for you today!
