The Holy Spirit is the 3rd person of the trinity, not 3rd because he is least in value, just 3rd because he is the last to be revealed to us in the pages of scripture.
But all of the fullness, all of the power, all of the authority, all of the greatness, all of the grandeur of god the father is in the person of the Holy Spirit.
Which means when you place faith in Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit takes up residence in you.
That now means that all of the power, all of the glory all of the grandeur, all of the greatness of god the father now lives on the inside of you.
Ephesians chapter 1 says, the moment you believe you receive the Holy Spirit with Promise.
You are not waiting on the Holy Spirit. You have the Holy Spirit right now.
So look right to encounters any rights during a time when the nation of Israel is experiencing national depravity and decay.
They have been oppressed by oppressors who have come in and stolen from them much of what they valued.
They are living in a in a place of oppression and appraisal destruction and Luke writes to them during this time when their nation is in trouble.
And I don’t know if if you’ve noticed or not, but our nation is in trouble.
We are living during a time of moral and social decay and decline like never before, and listen the more god is marginalized, the more he’s segmented to the periphery of society, the more he has completely ignored or disregarded the more we will continue to see an influx of chaos and an influx of destruction in our nation.
But Luke doesn’t just write to people who have national trouble.
Luke is writing to people that have individual personal struggles.
They’ve been waiting on a hero to show up They’ve been waiting for the kingdom of god to be a hand.
They’ve been waiting for the prophecies of all to come to flourish and that there would be a messiah, a savior who would come and rescue them from all that they’ve been experiencing nationally, but also the things that they have been experiencing personally.
So I know our nation is in trouble, but I didn’t really come to talk to you today about what’s happening in the White House.
I wanna talk to you about what’s happening in your house.
Underneath the roof of your home, the trouble that might be happening in your marriage, the thing that causes the tears to fall down from your eyes in regards to your kids or your finances or your health or on your job are in your ministry, you, like the children of Israel, like me, been waiting on a hero, somebody who can come in and speak life to the dead places and refresh the dry places of our life.
Luke is writing for people who need an encounter with a god like that.
And I just want to tell any of you that might be in a struggle personally underneath the roof of your own house and the landscape of your own house and you’re in a struggle, you’re in a time like Luke writes to where man things are just plain old flat out difficult.
I just want to suggests you the possibility that sometimes, sometimes your difficulties are less about the enemy being against you and more about god wanting to show you what it looks like when he’s for you.
Sometimes the stuff that you are facing, the stuff that I’m facing that are difficult, it’s less about the enemy being against you.
And sometimes It’s just about god allowing a stage to be set in your life to where when he shows up, you will never ever doubt again that you had an encounter with Jesus.
So the children of Israel need an encounter with the Messiah.
They need an encounter with Jesus Christ. And finally, Jesus arrives on the scene.
After 400 years of silence between the Old Testament and the New Testament, Jesus arrives on the scene after centuries of waiting after desireing to be fulfilled.
Jesus shows up on the scene. Their hope has finally be been fulfilled, but here’s the tragedy.
When he comes, He does not come as they supposed he would. He is not on a throne.
He is not riding a white horse.
He is not coming in power and vengeance and authority that they had mirrored in their oppressors that they had pictured that their Messiah would come in.
No. He is born as a baby.
All of that deity and authority and miraculous working power that they longed for was packaged in the skin of humanity and a small human at that.
This is not what they wanted. It’s not what they recognized.
It wasn’t the expectation they had built up in their heads.
So when he came, they did not recognize him.
When he showed up because he was not in the package that they had pictured in their minds, He didn’t come in the package they had prayed for.
He had come in a different way because he did not meet there at expectations when he showed up, they did not recognize him.
In the passage that we read Jesus is being brought into the temple, he is being carried uh, by his mother, Mary Joseph, is along for the ride as well.
They have come with Jesus about forty days old into the temple they’re in a religious gathering where people have come to perform their religious duties.
And all the people who are gathered that they are in the presence of the one they prayed for and do not know him when he comes.
Would you please notice that they’re not just anywhere?
They are in the temple and still don’t recognize the presence of god.
I wanna suggest to you that it is possible to be at propel and not see Jesus.
I wanna tell you that it is possible for you to be in your church every single Sunday, which I pray you are, but you can be in your church and not have an encounter with Jesus.
I wanna tell you that I’m so glad many of you are in Bible studies stay in Bible study, but you can read a verse a day to keep the devil away until you are blue in the face.
But if you read the scriptures with a heart and heart with your eyes not open.
You can be filling your days with the duty of religious activity and never catch sight of the lover of your soul.
Never have an encounter and experience with Jesus.
All these people were in the presence of Jesus Christ and did not circumstances, he will come in a way that is not the way you expect it.
Why? Because his ways are not our ways.
His thoughts are not our thoughts as high as the heavens are above the earth.
That’s how high his ways and his thoughts are above our own, and What I attempt to do, what you often attempt to do, I’m sure, is to dumb him down so that his ways match our ways.
His thoughts match our thoughts. We want him to answer our prayers the way we’ve prayed them.
We want the solutions that work out in our minds to be the solutions that will be best given the scenario that we see given the prayer request that we’ve prayed, but y’all sometimes we pray for growth, and he answers with rain.
Sometimes we pray for oak trees, and he answers with an acorn.
And when the answer comes for your marriage, when the answer comes for your parenting, when the solution that god listen, today, god is gonna give some of you solutions and divine strategies for things that are happening in your life and on your job and in your finances, the struggles that you’re facing.
And I’m saying, when he answers, If the answer does not come in the package that you have expected, will you miss it because you want your way, not his way?
And so Jesus, he comes, and he’s in a pool of religious people, and they do not recognize the presence of god near them.
Now, I wanna open up a little parenthesis here before we jump to a specific person that I wanna draw your attention to.
He’s the only person in the text who actually sees Jesus But I wanna open up a little parenthesis because you may have recognized that Luke went into a whole lot of detail to tell us something about the Texas.
One thing I love about Luke. Is that he gives us details.
I like all the juice and all the details out of the text so that I can get a full picture painted of what’s happening in the story And Luke wants us to know that that Mary and Joseph are coming for the ceremonial dedication of their firstborn son.
It’s what everybody did. That would come to Jerusalem particularly during this time when they had a newborn son to present their newborn son to the lord.
Get the picture of this. The lord, in this case, is being presented to the lord.
And they come in and Luke writes and tells us exactly what they have with them other than the baby Jesus says that Mary had 2 turtle doves or 2 pigeons for her sacrifice.
Now that wouldn’t really be of interest except that we know from Leviticus, from the sacrificial system that had been set up finally mandated by god in Leviticus that when someone came to make their sacrifices, they didn’t need 2 animals to be sacrificed One was a pigeon or a turtledove.
The other was supposed to be a lamb, that they were supposed to bring a lamb with them.
But we find them Luke’s gospel that he’s made sure we know, Mary and Joseph do not have their own lamb.
Luke chapter 12 tells us our leviticus chapter 12 tells us that there was a caveat for why someone would not bring a lamb to be sacrificed.
There’s one little verse, Luke chapter 12 verse 8 or so, that says, if someone could not afford a lamb, if their financial resources were so that they could not buy for themselves a lamb, to bring into the temple to be sacrificed, there would be an exception made for them.
They could bring 2 turtle doves instead of one turtle dove and a lamb.
They could just bring 2 tarle doves, but that was a symbol of the fact that they were insufficient in some way.
They did not have the finance finances to buy their own land, which means when Mary and Joseph came on that particular day with their 2 hurdle doves in tow.
People would have automatically looked at them and recognized them as a couple who had insufficient funds.
As a couple who was inadequate in some way, as a couple who had lack and who had knees.
I wonder how many people turned their noses up a couple who could not afford their own lamb.
I wonder how many people ignored the poor couple who didn’t fit in with everybody else who had been able to purchase their own lamb.
I wonder how many people did not get an opportunity to have an encounter with the baby Jesus because they ignored the people who had him carried in their arms.
I wanna speak to who anybody who’s in this room and you’ve ever felt at excluded or ignored from the click of people who have the money to buy their own land.
They drive the car, and they live in the house, and they’re able to to communicate or to experience life in a certain way that that, man, you just can’t afford.
Maybe you’ve got lacked financially or you’ve got emotionally. You have lack relationally.
You have poured everything out, and you find that you’ve got insufficient funds in some way in your life.
And you can’t afford what it looks like everybody else can afford. And you’ve been ignored or ostracized.
People have turned their noses a you.
Can I just tell you that sometimes you don’t need to have your own lamb when you can carry the lamb of god that takes away the sins of the world?
In fact, the lamb is most often best experienced in the lives of those who have insufficient funds.
Yeah. In fact, I think it is our affluence that keeps us from actually having an counter with the living god.
We’ve become so used to being able to bless ourselves that we don’t have a real authentic relationship with the blessed or.
We are so affluent. We have prosperity, particularly in this part of the world. We’re, listen.
If you’re poor in this country, you’re rich in other countries.
And here where we’ve been able to sustain ourselves where we know where our next meal is coming from, where we choose from a closet full of clothes as to what closed, we’re gonna wear to a particular event where we might have financial struggles.
Everything is not perfect, but we still have our daily needs met.
It is sometimes in our affluence because our arms are so full of the lambs we have bought for ourselves.
We actually don’t even have room.
We don’t have margin to have an intimate ongoing relationship with the lamb of god that takes away the sins of the world.
Lord, forgive us when we’ve turned our noses up at people who don’t have all of the external markings of a of a fluent in doing that.
We have missed out on the blessing of having a relationship with the people who often have the most intimate relationships with Jesus Christ.
Because sometimes y’all, those people are not in the in the spotlight. They’re the ones behind the scenes.
Sometimes those are the people that are not in megachurch churches. They’re in storefront churches.
Sometimes there are the people that are not the ones on the platform with the microphone in their hands.
They’re the people that volunteer their time to clean up in a sanctuary like this to sweep up after us.
They’re the people who volunteer their time to be in the Sunday school, teaching our 2nd graders and 3rd graders so that you and I can enjoy an opportunity like that.
Forgive us when we ignore those people and clamor after the people whose gifts happen to put them in the spotlight, but we ignore those people who are who are, uh, an intercessory prayer, who are on their knees in the secret, quiet places, the lamb of god tucked within their arms, having an intimate counter with him, but we ignore them because they don’t look like us or dress like us or drive what we drive or live where we live.
So if you’ve ever been that person, the text speaks to you today that it was Mary and Joseph who did not have what everybody had.
But they had what everybody else didn’t have. And so they come into the building.
Nobody recognizes that Jesus has arrived. Except one person.
Luke writes at the top of the passage. He writes and behold. Somebody say behold. Behold.
Come on. Y’all say behold.
Anytime an author in the text writes that word, it isn’t a throwaway word.
It isn’t something that you just need to skip or skim over quickly.
Anytime you read behold and the text, the officer’s trying to tell you, lean in, put your chin in your hands, just in case you kinda fell asleep during all the minutiae and the fine details that led up to this moment.
This is when the author wants you to open up your eyes and sit straight because there’s somebody he wants you to meet.
He says, behold, there was a man named Simeon.
And when no one else recognized the presence of god when god came near, there was one guy who did.
And if in this room today, there are only gonna be a handful of us who actually have an encounter with god I’m talking about where for the purpose that he has for our life, if there gonna be a whole lot of us who have an experience today, but only a few that actually encounter the living god that I don’t know about you, but if there’s only gonna be a few, I wanna be one of them.
Anybody? So Luke says pay attention because there’s one guy that’s gonna show you how to have your eyes open so that you aren’t just in the religious place but so that you encounter a holy living god.
He says there’s a man named Simeon. He’s righteous devout And he’s looking for the consolation of Israel.
His eyes are open peeled to the horizon waiting for Jesus in whatever package he chooses to come.
Waiting for an encounter with the the long awaited messiah.
And then he gives us at least the one.
There are many throughout this text but the one characteristic of his life that I believed opened up Simeon’s eyes to catch sight of god that will open up our eyes to catch sight of god.
He says at the bottom of verse 25, he says, and the Holy Spirit was upon him.
Luke says Simeon’s eyes were open to catch sight of god.
Because god’s spirit was on him.
The holy spirit is the greatest gift you will ever receive this side of eternity.
The moment you place faith in Jesus, The moment you received Jesus as your personal savior, I don’t know if you knew it or not, but you received in that moment the greatest gift you will ever receive, the Holy Spirit of God.
And the Holy Spirit is not a ghost or a wind or a fire or a dove.
He is often embleized by those things, but y’all they ain’t who he is.
The Holy Spirit is the 3rd person of the Trinity, not third because he is least in value, just 3rd because he is the last to be revealed to us in the pages of scripture, but all of the fullness, all of the power, all of the authority, all of the greatness, All of the grandeur of god the father is in the person of the Holy Spirit, which means when you place faith in Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit takes up residence in you, That now means that all of the power, all of the glory, all of the grandeur, all of the greatness of god, the father now lives on the inside of you.
Ephysians chapter 1 says, the moment you believe you receive the Holy Spirit with Promise, you are not waiting on the Holy Spirit.
You have the Holy Spirit right now. You did not receive the Holy Spirit in installment plans.
You can’t give away a person in parts.
All of the Holy Spirit you ever gonna get, you got, the moment you got saved.
Now we need to be filled by god’s spirit as we yield to his conviction in our life in obedience as what is happening in us becomes an outward expression as our is modified as we are sanctified.
Somebody say sanctified. Thank god. That means as we are molded into the image of Christ Jesus so that we start to think like him in talk like him and walk like him and behave.
Like Jesus Jesus behave, we need to be filled by god’s spirit.
But when you got saved, listen to me, You received the Holy Spirit of God. God’s spirit is in you.
The benefit of this is All of the fruit of god’s spirit is available to you.
That means that that there is gentleness that you don’t have in your own natural ability for that person or that problem that now you are able to have that is beyond your own natural capacity because the Holy Spirit, what he does is help us to live beyond ourselves.
When we’ve come to the end of our patients, you know, with that one coworker, that one that if she says one more thing to you, you go knock her out.
That one. The Holy Spirit is the one that gives you patience when your patience has long since run out.
The Holy Spirit is the one who gives you self discipline so that you have discipline in areas where you know left to your own now desires and propensities, you would not have discipline in that area of morality or that area of gluttony.
You wouldn’t have discipline But now, because the Holy Spirit lives on the inside of you, you can live beyond your natural capacities.
Anybody excited about that? The Holy Spirit gives you fruit so that you are able to have more than what you would have if left to your own.
But you don’t just get his fruit. You get his gifts.
The Holy Spirit gives you gifts through which you can edify the body of Christ he turns what would have maybe possibly been just a talent into a gift that actually causes what you do or what you craft to actually get to the hearts of the people that you were singing to or speaking to or dancing for or writing to those people now don’t just read words on a page that you wrote.
Now the words are like fire shut up in their soul. It changes their heart.
It renews their mind, it accomplishes spiritual purposes in their lives.
So listen, if you’re a writer, well, then write do your best work, but in the end, what you’re praying for is that god’s spirit will anoint your words with power and with fire to affect people for the glory of god.
Yeah. Don’t just speak. Ask god for fire on your message.
Don’t just dance, perfect your craft, but in the end, what you’re looking for is not just talent.
What you want is a gift.
And there’s no amount of manufacturing that can give what only the hear holy spirit can give.
So when the Holy Spirit takes up residence on the inside of you and on the inside of me, at the moment we are saved, we have the privilege of having relationship with Jesus Christ, having relationship with god, having communication with him, because of the Holy Spirit that lives on the inside of us, that if when god sent his son Jesus to die on the cross.
If when we received that gift, we got a ticket to eternity, and that was all we got.
Just that we knew we were saved from death, hell, and the grave, and we got to experience eternity.
Would Jesus Christ? Listen, if that all we ever got out of this salvation deal, that would have been enough for us to celebrate for the rest of our days.
But when that might have been enough for us, it wasn’t enough for him. Amen. He said, no.
I’m a send you the Holy Spirit so that I don’t you don’t have to wait to get to heaven to experience heaven, but so that you can have a little bit of heaven right now while you’re here on planet Earth, I’m going to give you myself in the person of the Holy Spirit so that you will see what it’s like to walk with me and talk with me and have friendship with me and an ongoing relationship with me.
That is what it means to have the Holy Spirit. Amen.
But Luke says that Simeon did not just have the spirit in him.
It says that the spirit was upon him.
This tells us that there is a difference between the spirit being in you and the spirit being on you.
I wanna live a life that invites the presence of god’s spirit on me.
I know he’s in me, but I want the kind of life that is a magnet that calls down the grace to favor the anointing the presence of god upon my life.
I wanna live in such yielded surrender to him that not just is he in me, that’s a gift that all of us get who have placed faith in Jesus Christ, but I don’t just want him in me.
I want him on my life. I want the evidence of him on my life.
I want it so that when I do something or say something or participate in something or pray over something, I want it so that when I walk away.
People don’t just say Priscilla was here. I want them to say no god’s presence was here.
That only happens when the spirit of god is on you.
And so if you wanna mother your kids in such a way that you leave the imprint of god on those kids, the spirit can’t just be in you.
He gotta be on you. If you wanna be the wife that god has called you to be single woman, if you wanna be the kind of single woman that god has called you to be, if you wanna be the kind of employer or employee that god has called you to be.
If you wanna walk with purpose in the way that god has called you to, then thank the lord that god’s spirit is on you.
But I’m asking that god will allow it there to be 2 thousand women who leave this place today at the end of the day, and god spirit in just in us, but god’s spirit is on us, where we are marked by the presence of god, where when people encounter us, there’s something unusual, something distinct something that they cannot touch or taste or communicate with their 5 physical senses.
There’s an intangible that is on their life.
Where when the employer is looking to give the promotion, it’s not that your resume says you are the most qualified out of all the candidates, but there’s something about you that they just can’t put a finger on.
That’s called the spirit of god being on you. It’s called favor.
Favor is what opens up doors. No man. Can shut.
Favor is what puts you in place as you know. You don’t have no business being in.
Favor is what sets you in positions that you know you are qualified for.
Say f favor is what makes it so that you are exactly where you’re supposed be to accomplish exactly what it is that god has set for you to accomplish.
It’s it’s what qualifies you. When you don’t have the degree and you don’t have the diploma, you don’t have the connections.
You’re just where god has opened up a door for you to be.
And even though people like to talk badly about you or try to push you out of that place, You cannot be moved, not because you manufactured your way there, but because god’s spirit has placed you there.
God’s spirit on your life is what makes it so that you don’t have to market yourself because you’ve already been marked by the presence of almighty god.
Oh, I want god’s spirit on me. And can I tell you this? Are you listening?
There is one thing that attracts the presence of god to rest on our lives.
And it is holiness.
Plain old, flat out, old school, holiness.
I implore you sisters by the mercies of god.
To walk in a manner worthy of the calling by which you have been called.
That if you come if I come into this room, and we celebrate till we are blue in the face, and we wave our hands, and we read the scriptures, and we worship, but we walk out of here, and we live in a way that is in congruent with everything that we’ve heard here today.
If we do not choose to walk in a way that honors god, we will have wasted the time that we have spent a year.
And if there is something that breaks my heart for my own generation and the generation coming up after me, is that social media has made it so that we are more interested in impressing people than walking wholly before our god.
We are more interested in being perfectly lit than we are in making sure that we’re laying up treasures for ourselves in heaven.
Lord, help us when because of our hubris, because of our arrogance, because of our pride, we are more interested in receiving the applause of people than we are of making sure that we will receive the applause of heaven.
But a day is coming.
Y’all sooner than we think where we’re going to look our savior in his face where we’re gonna see him face to face.
And when we see him, he will not ask me how many Instagram followers I have.
He will not wonder how many people liked my message on Twitter.
What he’ll ask me is number 1, did I have a relationship with his son, jeez?
And then I will give an account. You will give an account.
And I don’t know about y’all, but when I give an account, I’m looking for a well done.
Not because I necessarily please people, but because he is pleased with my life.
And the one thing that invites the favor of god on our life like Simeon, that will open our eyes to see him more clearly so that we don’t miss him when he comes into our circumstances, trying to speak to us, to answer us, to make himself apparent in our lives the one thing that opens up our eyes is god’s spirit on us.
And if you want, if I want god’s spirit on our lives, then we gotta decide to live holy.
I implore you by the mercys of god to lay aside every sin, every hindrance anything that is keeping you entangled so that you cannot run with endurance, the race that is set before you.
Any relationship separate at the past so that you can walk holy sister.
Any addiction, any habit any lifestyle choice that is keeping you from being free and walking in victory in Jesus’ name, let it go by the power of the Holy Spirit so that he can rest on your life.
Going to church is good, but it’s not enough. Doing your bible study.
Oh, it’s great, but it’s not enough.
If you want god’s presence on you, marking you, making you distinct and different from the people around you, then you gotta walk in a manner worthy of the lord.
Be ye holy. It’s not perfection.
It is a call to yield to the power of the Holy Spirit in you so that you do not give way to all the desires of your flesh.
What it means is that you have not chosen as a lifestyle.
An attitude or an action that you already know is displeasing to god.
You know up front that you’ve already got on your calendar after this is over a place you’re going or a person you’re seeing that you know you don’t have biz any business being in relationship with what you’ve already scheduled sin into your calendar.
I’m saying walk away from everything that is keeping you from having the biggest, most amazing blessing you can have on your life, and that is god’s presence, marking you all up on you setting you apart, girl, for his purposes and with his power evident through your life.
If you were in this room and you are in chains in some area of your life where you’ve tried the 12 step program.
You’ve tried to walk away from that illegitimate relationship.
You’ve tried to not live this lifestyle because you know that it is out of alignment with the truth of god, but everything you’ve tried in your own power has not set you free so that you can walk in holiness and have god’s presence resting on your life.
I believe that before this day is over, those chains can fall off of your life that you can decide that I’m a live holy so that I can have god’s favor like simeon so that my eyes can be opened because I wanna see my god.
I wanna hear his voice. I wanna have an experience and an encounter with him.
If you were in this room, and you know you’re not walking in holiness.
You know there is a area of your life, whether an attitude or an action.
I mean, god’s asked you to forgive that person, and you have dug your heels in the ground.
You have refused to forgive, or in your actions where you were literally doing something, participating in something, engaging in something and you’ve dug your heels into the ground, you’ve ignored the little pricks of the Holy Spirit asking you to walk away from that, or to participate in that You’ve you’ve ignored it, and you know you are not living wholly before the lord, and you wanna get that strike today so that we can all be women who honor god in our attitudes and in our actions and invite the favor of god on our lives.
Listen, If you were in this room and you were no holiness is the call that god has given to you this morning, would you please right now when this holy space just rise your feet, if that’s you, if you need freedom in a specific area of your life, we’re gonna walk out of here a holy band of women.
Who want god’s favor on us.
Don’t be embarrassed. Don’t be ashamed.
Listen. Ain’t nobody got time for that.
This is the moment where we say, god, we give ourselves to you and living in Holy sacrifice.
We present our bodies to you. We present our minds to you.
We present ourselves to you, lord. A living and holy sacrifice do with us what you will.
We surrender the area of life that is our area of bondage.
The area we’ve been holding back the little cove we’ve kept from your fingerprints being upon it.
We surrender that to you if you want freedom in Jesus name. This is your moment. Stand to your feet.
You don’t have to go home the same way you came, girl.
You don’t have to think the same.
You don’t have to act the same You don’t have to be in bondage like you are and have been.
We can change that by god’s spirit today. Lord Jesus, I looked up every single sister who was standing.
Underneath the sound of my voice.
And I pray right now in Jesus’ name that you would give them a holy boldness and a courage.
To surrender to you every area of their life that they’ve been holding back.
Sister, would you picture that area where you know you need to ask for forgiveness.
I’m gonna ask you to just put your hands out in front of you, cupped, cupped those hands in front of you like your holding that thing picture it in your hands.
Right now, the scripture says that if you confess your sin, he’s faith and just to forgive you, you’re sinning to cleanse you of all unrighteousness, picture that in his hand, in your hands, ask the lord to forgive you.
Ask for your for his forgiveness.
And only when you are ready, you lift up those hands as if you were yielding it finally completely to him.
And you lift up those hands and surrender.
Give it to him and just let it go.
Lord, every attitude, every action.
Every little hidden place in our life lord, every bondage, lord, every illegitimate relationship, every immorality, father, everything that is not like you.
We give it to you right now in Jesus’ name.
Lord, I pray that if there is a bondage, just shackle on somebody’s life, that is demonic in nature.
Lord, I pray in Jesus’ name and by his bloodshed on calvary that you would cancel every demonic assignment against these women and against their families.
Lord, I pray that you would, by your holy spirit, break the shackles, lord loosen them.
Help us to hear the shackles falling off now in Jesus’ name.
And lord, I pray that we will walk in a manner worthy of the calling by which we have been called father, I pray that you would enable us by your spirit to no longer walk by the flesh, but to walk by the spirit so that we will not fill the desires of the flesh lord.
I pray for freedom in Jesus name.
I thank you for Galatians, 51, that says it is for freedom that we have been made free.
Therefore, we will stand firm and no longer be subject again to any yoke of slavery that is in our life.
We are free in Jesus’ name.
And it is in the matchless name of Jesus Christ that everybody agreed and said. Amen? Amen.
