JUDGING BY THE FLESH 2

KEY SCRIPTURE: John 8:15 KJV” Ye judge after the flesh; I judge no man.”

To judge in this contest, is to determine or conclude from the grounds of the flesh.

The scriptures have continually taught that it is death to be led by your flesh or the senses.Rom 8:6 KJV” For to be carnally minded is death; but to be spiritually minded is life and peace.” Whenever a man is ruled by his flesh, he gets enslaved to all kinds of deplorable things that makes life very hopeless and also feels helpless. The flesh is the   centre of appetites which are expressed through the body. Every form of emotional pain, like unforgiveness, bitterness and worry are all signs of fleshly ruled person.

 Failure to get to any anticipated heights in life, is as a result judging matters from the flesh.

According to the scriptures Rom 8:12 KJV” Therefore, brethren, we are debtors, not to the flesh, to live after the flesh.” We are people of the Spirit and must allow the word of God to lead us in all we do.

The main challenge of the dominance of the flesh is to maintain, that you are weak.

 When any child of God makes statements like, I am helpless in this or that aspect of my life, then he has accepted the witness of the flesh and would surely be defeated by the devil.

Apostle Paul said, I can do all things through Christ which strengthens me.

 You are given away by what you say.

Divine ability to conquer always follows the man who acknowledges he or she is of the spirit. and so, responds to all things in line with the word of God. BE CAREFUL WHAT YOU BELIEVE AND SAY. A man is snared by the words of his mouth.

Our discussion today is to stop judging anything from our fleshly point of view. We have to stand on the scriptures to relate to matters in this life. The scriptures say sin shall not have dominion over you. The moment you accept what the scripture has said, by also saying and acting in line with what the word says, your flesh may be telling you something different, yet you would soon realise it has lost its control over you.

 This is what faith is all about (that is a, refusal to live by what you feel, see or think naturally but to do what the word says).

The same applies to your response to diseases. If they seem to come all over your body, yet you boldly declare that you are healed by his stripes and you sincerely rejoice in your heart that the scripture is settled. You would soon see that, that pain, or whatever it is, is gone.

 Failure would be a thing of the past if you continually stand on the word and keep saying you have conquered in Jesus’ name.

CONFESSION

 God’s spirit rules me. I am in charge of my life because I life by faith. My faith keeps conquering every opposition for Sin or sickness cannot Lord themselves over me. Poverty has no place in me. I am a master of all devils.

THOUGHT:  CHOOSE TO WIN ALWAYS BY PLACING GOD’S WORD FIRST.
