Kill the Flesh—Don’t Negotiate With It

“Now those who belong to Christ Jesus crucified the flesh with its passions and desires.” — Galatians 5:24 (NASB 1995)

You can’t belong to Jesus and keep pet sins alive. The cross calls for execution, not compromise.

If you’ve been trying to balance Christ and the flesh, today’s verse calls you to decide. Believers don’t tame the flesh—they crucify it.

The Holy Spirit gives the power to let it die and the courage to walk away.

Challenge:
What’s something you’ve been protecting that should’ve been nailed to the cross? Don’t excuse it—crucify it.

Prayer:
Spirit of God, I choose Christ. Kill the passions in me that lead away from Him. Teach me how to truly live. Amen.

Helping Our Children Put Off the Old Life

“Now those who belong to Christ Jesus crucified the flesh with its passions and desires.” — Galatians 5:24 (NASB 1995)

Teaching our children to follow Jesus means showing them how to lay down their old ways—and it starts with us.

We model what crucifying the flesh looks like when we say no to pride, to impatience, to selfishness. When we confess, repent, and walk by the Spirit, our children learn to do the same.

This is real discipleship—dying daily, and living by the Spirit.

Family Talk:

  • What does it mean to “crucify the flesh”?
  • What’s one thing we each want the Spirit to help us let go of?

Prayer:
Holy Spirit, help our family put off anything that doesn’t honor Jesus. Let us belong fully to Him. Amen.

Fruit That Flourishes in Surrender

“But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control…” — Galatians 5:22–23 (NASB 1995)

The fruit of the Spirit isn’t something you can manufacture. It’s not a checklist—it’s a result. It grows as you stay rooted in Christ and yielded to the Spirit.

Love that chooses the good of others. Joy that isn’t circumstantial. Peace that surpasses understanding. This is the life the Spirit produces in a surrendered heart.

Don’t try harder. Grow deeper.

Reflection:
Am I striving to look spiritual—or surrendering to truly be changed?

Prayer:
Holy Spirit, grow Your fruit in my life. I give You space to change what I cannot. Let Your beauty be seen in me. Amen.

God Grows Good Fruit in Me!

“But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control…” — Galatians 5:22–23 (NASB 1995)

Just like fruit grows on a tree, the Holy Spirit grows good things in your heart—like love, joy, peace, and kindness!

When you listen to Him and stay close to Jesus, those good things show up more and more!

Try This:
Draw a big tree and label each fruit with one of the Spirit’s gifts!

Prayer:
Holy Spirit, help me grow Your fruit—kindness, joy, love, and more! Thank You for living in me. Amen.

Don’t Fake the Fruit—Let It Grow

“But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control…” — Galatians 5:22–23 (NASB 1995)

Real love. Real peace. Real self-control. These aren’t moods or moments—they’re evidence.

If the Spirit is living in you, His fruit will show. But don’t try to force it. You can’t duct-tape joy onto a branch. You have to abide in Christ and yield to the Spirit daily.

He doesn’t ask you to fake growth. He asks you to remain rooted.

Challenge:
Pick one fruit you struggle with. Ask the Spirit to grow it in you—not for people’s approval, but for God’s glory.

Prayer:
Spirit of God, don’t let me fake holiness. Grow in me what only You can. Make me fruitful in You. Amen.

Raising Fruitful Homes

“But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control…” — Galatians 5:22–23 (NASB 1995)

We all want homes full of peace, love, and self-control—but we can’t produce those things on our own.

The fruit of the Spirit grows where He’s welcomed.

As mothers, we set the tone. Are we modeling love over irritation? Peace over pressure? Gentleness over demand? Let the Spirit work in you first—and your children will taste the fruit.

Family Talk:

  • What is one fruit we want more of in our home?
  • How can we ask the Holy Spirit to help us grow it?

Prayer:
Holy Spirit, help our family grow the kind of fruit that honors Jesus. Let our home reflect You. Amen.

The Sweet Spot for a Controlled Global Economic Collapse

Published September 10, 2025

Based on everything we know from current financial trajectories, technological readiness, and prophetic alignment, here’s the distilled reality: The global elites are racing the clock. They must get their digital control infrastructure in place before the current fiat-based system collapses on its own. They have some control over the timing, but not total control; there’s a hard ceiling to how long they can prop it up.

The earliest realistic collapse window is late 2026. The infrastructure, CBDCs, biometric verification, digital IDs, IoB, AI enforcement, won’t be fully operational until 2026. That means an organized, controlled collapse before late 2026 would backfire because there would be chaos without a unified replacement system, and governments and central banks would lose authority rather than consolidate it. Therefore, global adoption of their solution would be inconsistent.

They cannot safely trigger a full-scale collapse in 2025 or early 2026. That’s why they’ve been delaying triggers and buying time with temporary measures like stimulus injections, debt rollovers, and “soft landings.” The latest they can delay is mid-to-late 2027. Even if they try to drag it out, the mathematics and market realities work against them because the global debt is growing exponentially. It’s over $315 trillion right now and compounding faster than GDP. U.S. debt just crossed $35 trillion, with interest payments becoming unsustainable by late 2026. Currency confidence is eroding, and the BRICS alliance is accelerating a de-dollarization strategy. Central banks worldwide are hoarding gold reserves, which is a historic pre-collapse signal. This creates a pressure cooker effect that by 2027 at the latest, the fiat system implodes under its own weight, whether they want it to or not.

If they’re not ready, chaos spirals out of control and weakens their position. Therefore, their best option is to ensure their digital architecture is ready before that point. The sweet spot for a controlled collapse is late 2026 to mid-2027. If they time it perfectly, this window allows them to trigger the collapse while presenting their “solution” simultaneously:

  • CBDCs (Central Bank Digital Currencies)
  • Biometric Digital IDs
  • IoB health integration (vaccine passports, neural IDs, etc.)
  • Global compliance frameworks using AI-driven monitoring
  • Manufacturing dependency so people voluntarily submit for access to essentials, food, energy, healthcare, financial participation.
  • Coordinate governments + Big Tech + central banks globally, removing the option for individual nations to resist effectively.

The reason they’re pushing so hard now is the elites, WEF, BIS, IMF, central banks, Big Tech, are in a compressed timeline. Their technology infrastructure (CBDCs, IoB, AI surveillance) isn’t fully operational yet. The earliest is 2026. But the current fiat system’s death spiral is accelerating with an unavoidable collapse by 2027, even without intervention. That means late 2026 to mid-2027 is the narrow window for a controlled demolition before losing control entirely. If they miss that sweet spot, the collapse happens anyway, but uncontrolled chaos weakens their ability to consolidate power.

Where this aligns prophetically: If the Antichrist’s global financial system rises after the collapse, the infrastructure must already exist when the dust settles. That aligns perfectly with this 2026–2027 timeline. Before this system is imposed, the Church, the restraining influence, is removed:

“…For the mystery of lawlessness is already at work; only He who now restrains will do so until He is taken out of the way.”  — 2 Thessalonians 2:7 (NKJV)

That suggests, the Rapture likely occurs just before or during the controlled collapse. That way, the vacuum of chaos allows the Antichrist to step forward as the “savior” the world cries for.

The Flesh Is Obvious, But the Spirit Is Greater

“Now the deeds of the flesh are evident, which are: sexual immorality, impurity, indecent behavior, idolatry, witchcraft, hostilities, strife, jealousy, outbursts of anger, selfish ambition, dissensions, factions, envy, drunkenness, carousing, and things like these…” — Galatians 5:19–21 (NASB 1995)

Paul doesn’t hide the truth—he lays it bare. The deeds of the flesh are loud, destructive, and obvious. But so is the Spirit’s answer: walk with Me.

You don’t overcome the flesh by pretending it’s not there. You overcome it by crucifying it through the Spirit’s power and replacing it with the fruit of His presence.

You’re not called to manage sin—you’re called to be free from it.

Reflection:
Are there areas in my life I’ve excused as “just the way I am”?

Prayer:
Holy Spirit, expose what is not from You. Burn away the works of the flesh in my life, and lead me into purity. Amen.

God Helps Me Choose What’s Good

“Now the deeds of the flesh are evident, which are: sexual immorality, impurity, indecent behavior, idolatry, witchcraft, hostilities, strife, jealousy, outbursts of anger, selfish ambition, dissensions, factions, envy, drunkenness, carousing, and things like these…” — Galatians 5:19–21 (NASB 1995)

Sometimes we want to do things that hurt others—or ourselves. That’s called sin. But Jesus wants us to live in a better way.

The Holy Spirit helps you choose kindness, love, and truth.

Try This:
Make a “Good Choices” list with your parent. Ask the Holy Spirit to help you live it out.

Prayer:
Jesus, thank You for giving me the Holy Spirit to help me do what’s right. Help me say no to sin. Amen.

Call It What It Is

“Now the deeds of the flesh are evident, which are: sexual immorality, impurity, indecent behavior, idolatry, witchcraft, hostilities, strife, jealousy, outbursts of anger, selfish ambition, dissensions, factions, envy, drunkenness, carousing, and things like these…” — Galatians 5:19–21 (NASB 1995)

The world glamorizes what God calls sin. But the Spirit doesn’t blur lines—He brings clarity.

Jealousy, lust, rage, pride, impurity—these aren’t just flaws. They’re works of the flesh. And they grow when ignored.

But here’s the good news: the Spirit doesn’t just convict you, He equips you to overcome.

Challenge:
Name one “work of the flesh” that you struggle with. Don’t justify it—confess it. Then ask the Spirit to help you kill it.

Prayer:
Holy Spirit, I don’t want to manage my sin—I want to be free. Confront what’s not from You, and lead me in truth. Amen.
