“But I say, walk by the Spirit, and you will not carry out the desire of the flesh.”
— Galatians 5:16, NASB1995
Step by Step: Spirit Over Flesh
The battle between the flesh and the Spirit is real.
But the key isn’t fighting harder—it’s walking smarter.
Galatians 5:16 gives the strategy: walk by the Spirit, and you won’t carry out the desires of the flesh. That means the more you tune your heart to Him, the less power sin has over you.
Walking by the Spirit means being sensitive to His conviction, obeying quickly, and choosing holiness over hype.
Challenge:
Take time to ask the Holy Spirit, “Where am I walking ahead of You—or without You?”
Prayer:
Holy Spirit, I need You to lead every step. Keep me from paths that pull me away. Train me to walk in freedom. Amen.

I’m a follower of Christ, learning daily to walk the narrow path laid out in His Word. Through Rooted & Raised: Anchoring Women & Children in Christ, I simply seek to point others back to Scripture, tested by the Holy Spirit, lived out in faith, and anchored in truth.
● This space isn’t about lofty theology or grand platforms. It’s about humble obedience, Kingdom living, and helping others, especially women and families, rediscover the kind of faith that bears fruit, costs something, and reflects the love of Christ. My heart is to encourage others as I learn, grow, and surrender alongside them.
