Those Who Are In The Realm Of The Flesh Cannot Please God
The mind governed by the flesh is death, but the mind governed by the Spirit is life and peace. The mind governed by the flesh is hostile to God; it does not submit to God’s law, nor can it do so. Those who are in the realm of the flesh cannot please God. Romans 8:6-8, NIV Since we live in this world, we are sometimes governed by standards and desires that will only satisfy our flesh.

You see, this world will somehow tempt you to focus on what you can see, taste and hear. There will be days when the desires of your flesh are stronger than the desires of your spirit. When that happens, always remember what the…

So I say, walk by the Spirit, and you will not gratify the desires of the flesh. Galatians 5:16,NIV Your flesh will tempt you to do selfish things, so choose to walk by the Spirit of God.
