War is Evidence of Life | Pastor Bong Baylon
Published 2 months, 1 week ago
Description
War Is Evidence of LifeScripture: Galatians 5:17 (NIV) “For the flesh desires what is contrary to the Spirit, and the Spirit what is contrary to the flesh. They are in conflict with each other…”Explanation The Christian life includes conflict. The flesh and the Spirit are at war within you. Before Christ, there was no battle—the flesh ruled uncontested. Now there is resistance. That inner struggle is not a sign of failure; it is evidence of new life. Victory does not mean the absence of struggle. It means learning to win more often over time.Personal Reflection You may feel discouraged because you still struggle. You may wish you were already perfect. But progress, not perfection, is the true sign of transformation. Are you repenting faster? Are you surrendering sooner? Do you hate sin more than before?Personal Application Do not be ashamed of the battle. See it as proof that the Spirit is fighting in you and for you. Keep walking. Keep surrendering. A better heart shows better results over time—and the conflict itself is evidence that God is at work. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
