Text: Galatians 5:16-26
The Spirit goes one way, and the flesh in another. They are opposite, so to follow one is to not follow the other. Following the flesh is to look to our self interest, which is at odds with the Holy Spirit.
To walk in the Spirit is to obey God. We love God; we do His will; We love others. Matthew 22:37-40 says that all the law and the prophets hang on loving God and others.
To walk in the flesh is to obey someone other than God. It can be your own desires, other people, or other gods. It's serving our desires, other people, or the enemy or Satan.
We need the love of God to walk in patience and perseverence. Romans 5:3-5 says that the love of God is in us. Love depends on the character of the giver not the receiver. If you want more love, sow it, and put it to work. If you love God, show it by loving others.
