Even as we commit ourselves to a Spirit-led life, we must be aware that there will be trials within the realm of our Christian experience. Alistair Begg teaches on the importance of a daily, dependent walk with God as we put aside darkness and embrace His light. Despite the challenges our circumstances might present, God has declared the ultimate victory through His Son, Jesus Christ.
16But I say, walk by the Spirit, and you will not gratify the desires of the flesh. 17For the desires of the flesh are against the Spirit, and the desires of the Spirit are against the flesh, for these are opposed to each other, to keep you from doing the things you want to do. 18But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the law. 19Now the works of the flesh are evident: sexual immorality, impurity, sensuality, 20idolatry, sorcery, enmity, strife, jealousy, fits of anger, rivalries, dissensions, divisions, 21envy,4 drunkenness, orgies, and things like these. I warn you, as I warned you before, that those who do such things will not inherit the kingdom of God.
