Jeremiah 12; Habakkuk 1; Romans 2

Walk in the Spirit, and you shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh. Galatians 5:16

The answer to a vital life is to walk in the Spirit. Or to live in the spirit. our focus is to spend all our waking hours walking with God and thinking about spiritual things all day long. It also means that we must surrender to the influences of the Holy Spirit. To walk in the spirit is to yield to all his suggestions. If a man would yield the influence of the spirit, he would be able to overcome all his evil faults; and it is because we resist the Spirit that we are overcome by our passions.

Lord, help me to Walk in the Spirit. I want to have a vital life. Remind me moment by moment to spend all my waking hours thinking about spiritual things. I now surrender to your influence. I am willing to yield to your guidance. When temptation strikes, give me the mental and spiritual focus to be aware that I must not resist your holy spirit but instead let me be overcome by your love and your powerful presence so that I sink into fellowship with you. Help me remember that fellowship with you equals overcoming my sin.
