1. What Does it MeanToWalk In
the Spirit?

2.
Galatians 5:1 Stand fast therefore in the liberty
by which Christ has made us free, and do not be
entangled again with a yoke of bondage. 2 Indeed I,
Paul, say to you that if you become circumcised,
Christ will profit you nothing. 3 And I testify again
to every man who becomes circumcised that he is a
debtor to keep the whole law. 4 You have become
estranged from Christ, you who attempt to be
justified by law; you have fallen from grace.

3.
6 For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor
uncircumcision avails anything, but faith working
through love. 7 You ran well.Who hindered you
from obeying the truth? 8 This persuasion does not
come from Him who calls you. 9 A little leaven
leavens the whole lump…

4.
16 I say then:Walk in the Spirit, and you shall not
fulfill the lust of the flesh. 17 For the flesh lusts
against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; and
these are contrary to one another, so that you do
not do the things that you wish. 18 But if you are
led by the Spirit, you are not under the law.

5.
22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace,
longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness,
23 gentleness, self-control.Against such there is no
law. 24 And those who are Christ’s have crucified
the flesh with its passions and desires. 25 If we live
in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit.

6.
Romans 8:1 There is therefore now no
condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who
do not walk according to the flesh, but according to
the Spirit. 2 For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ
Jesus has made me free from the law of sin and
death. 3 For what the law could not do in that it was
weak through the flesh, God did by sending His own
Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, on account of sin:
He condemned sin in the flesh,

7.
Romans 8:4 that the righteous requirement of the
law might be fulfilled in us who do not walk
according to the flesh but according to the Spirit.
5 For those who live according to the flesh set their
minds on the things of the flesh, but those who live
according to the Spirit, the things of the Spirit…
8 So then, those who are in the flesh cannot please
God.9 But you are not in the flesh but in the Spirit,
if indeed the Spirit of God dwells in you.

8.
When you walk according to the flesh/law
- It demands righteousness from man
-You shall not,You shall not, If you hearken, If You
Obey
When you walk according to the Spirit, God's grace
supplies everything you need
-Your righteousness is a gift
- In blessing I will bless, I will remember your sins
no more, I will be merciful to your unrighteousness

9.
Do you see God demanding from you?
- heavy yoke of religion/law
- Do you feel stressed by the demands
placed on you?
Spouse,Work, business, parent
Or do you see God’s grace supplying you with
everything you need to be 10 times better in all
wisdom and understanding?
Ask God to supply you in the very area you feel
stress.

10.
Walking in the Spirit is constant realization that God
is giving you everything you need
John 3:16 For God so loved the world that He
gave His only begotten Son
Romans 8:32 He who did not spare His own Son,
but delivered Him up for us all, how shall He not
with Him also freely give us all things?

11.
If you see a demanding God, you put yourself under
the law and feel stressed
When you see Jesus supplying everything you need,
you will handle the situation with rest and do it 10
times more effectively
Matthew 11:28 Come unto me, all ye that labour
and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. 29 Take
my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and
lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls.
30 For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.

12.
Galatians 3:5 Therefore He who supplies the
Spirit to you and works miracles among you, does He
do it by the works of the law, or by the hearing of
faith?
God is constantly supplying you with the Spirit
God is constantly working miracles in your life

13.
Walking in the Spirit is confidently knowing your
righteousness is a gift and God is supplying
everything you will every need.
Galatians 5:6 For in Jesus Christ neither
circumcision availeth any thing, nor uncircumcision;
but faith which worketh by love.
God’s is supplying everything you need –
Walk in the Spirit and see God’s miracles!

14. I Corinthians 11:24
“Take, eat; this is My body which is broken for you; do
this in remembrance of Me.” 25 In the same manner He
also took the cup after supper, saying,“This cup is the
new covenant in My blood.This do, as often as you drink
it, in remembrance of Me.”
26 For as often as you eat this bread and drink this cup,
you proclaim the Lord’s death till He comes.
