What Does ‘Walking in the Spirit’ Mean?

Estimated reading time: 7 minutes

Galatians 5:16 says: ‘Walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh.’

Most sermons treat this as a disposition, an attitude, or simply a general orientation toward God. But the verse is operational. It assumes a conflict is already happening. It means that two kingdoms are already competing for the same person.

Key Takeaways

Galatians 5:16 emphasizes actively choosing to walk in the Spirit amid a conflict between flesh and spirit.
The ‘flesh’ represents a spiritual entity influenced by Satan, not just the physical body.
Walking in the Spirit requires faith, personal scripture engagement, spiritual fruit production, and endurance in truth.
Success in walking in the Spirit reveals spiritual maturity, which requires continuous obedience, not a one-time event.
Believers should reflect on their walk in the Spirit and consider the truth of their faith, as outlined in the article.

How Does God Test Believers?

Christians often wonder how does God test Believers. If some say that suffering towards individuals occurs randomly, this means that faith becomes a lottery.

Key Takeaways

The Bible teaches that God tests Believers through suffering, which is purposeful, not random.
Satan serves as the specific adversary in this testing process, allowed by God with limitations.
Believers experience multiple tests designed by Satan to assess their faithfulness and obedience to God.
The life on Earth serves as an arena for Christians to prove their love and loyalty to God while resisting Satan’s lies.
Understanding how God tests Believers is essential for spiritual growth and navigating trials in faith.

The Dietary Needs of Our ‘Inner Man’

Part 1 of the Spirit, Soul and the Body series examined the spiritual ‘organs’ God has provided to us within our “Inner Man“. This article examines how God has stated in scripture what the dietary needs of Our Inner Man represent.

Estimated reading time: 9 minutes

All living creatures on Earth that God has made require food to not only grow into maturity, but to prevent from dying. This is because any shortage of food leads to starvation and death. The same goes for the human soul, which needs an appropriate spiritual diet for our Inner Man to grow and to thrive.

Key Takeaways

This article examines the dietary needs of our Inner Man and highlights its importance for spiritual growth.
Christians must regularly ‘feed’ their Inner Man on God’s word to prevent spiritual starvation.
The dietary needs vary by maturity stages: ‘Babes,’ ‘Little Children,’ and ‘Strong Young Men’ require different spiritual nourishment.
Feeding the Inner Man correctly protects against spiritual dangers and promotes growth in faith.
The article encourages Christians to assess their current spiritual diet and consider their growth progression.

“… but though OUR OUTWARD [physical] MAN perish [through ageing], yet THE INWARD [spiritual]  MAN is renewed day by day [by feeding upon God's words].”  (2 Cor 4:16)

“That he would grant you, according to the riches of his glory, to be strengthened with might by his Spirit in THE INNER MAN;”  (Eph 3:16)
