Stop Letting Your Emotions Run Your Life | Fruit of The Spirit Series: SELF CONTROL
Description
THE FINAL EPISODE IN OUR FRUIT OF THE SPIRIT SERIES! We made it!!
In this episode, we explore self-control as a fruit of the Spirit from Galatians 5:22–23. Self-control isn’t simply about trying harder or suppressing our desires—it’s about allowing the Holy Spirit to shape our thoughts, choices, words, emotions, and actions.
We’ll talk about what biblical self-control looks like in everyday life, why it can be difficult, and how walking with the Spirit helps us respond with wisdom instead of being ruled by our impulses.
In this episode, we discuss:
- What Galatians 5:22–23 teaches about self-control
- The difference between willpower and Spirit-led self-control
- How self-control impacts our words, emotions, relationships, and decisions
- Practical ways to grow in self-control
- Why surrender to God is at the heart of true self-control
Key Scripture:
“...the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control.” — Galatians 5:22–23
Takeaway:
Self-control isn’t about becoming strong enough to handle everything on our own. It’s about becoming surrendered enough to let the Holy Spirit lead us.
Hope this helped y'all!!
