The second category is the lust of the flesh. This is the inordinate affection or desire that stems from thoughts and imaginations that are contrary to God’s word. The Bible refers to the works of the flesh in Galatians 5:19- 21. The conclusion is that those who engage in those things would not inherit God’s kingdom.
The flesh is often warring against the spirit, because it feeds on carnal and ephemeral things. If you desire to live an overcomer’s life in the spirit, you must compulsorily subdue and totally crucify the flesh. This was Apostle Paul’s cry in Romans 7:24-25. It reads, “O wretched man that I am! who shall deliver me from the body of this death? I thank God through Jesus Christ our Lord. So then with the mind I myself serve the law of God; but with the flesh the law of sin.”
The flesh is the manifestation of the old nature in us before we got born again. It is of utmost importance that you put it off and put on the new man which is renewed in the knowledge of Christ. Ephesians 4:22-24 underscores this: “That ye put off concerning the former conversation the old man, which is corrupt according to the deceitful lusts; And be renewed in the spirit of your mind; And that ye put on the new man, which after God is created in righteousness and true holiness.”
Thank God for the counsel of Galatians 5:24-25, that we should walk in the spirit in order not to fulfil the lust of the flesh. The flesh must be die if you desire a sin-free life. Flee carnality! Crucify the flesh. Put it under control and don’t allow it to control you. Here are so tested and proven steps you can take to overcome the lust of the flesh and friendship with the world: (1) You must repent from every known sin (2) You must live holy and righteous life consistently (3) You must be baptized with the Holy Ghost and fire (4) You must be an avid reader and doer of the word of God (5) You must pray without ceasing. I pray that God will help you, in the name of Jesus.
