Rom 8:9-11

9 But you are not controlled by your sinful nature. You are controlled by the Spirit if you have the Spirit of God living in you. (And remember that those who do not have the Spirit of Christ living in them do not belong to him at all.) 10 And Christ lives within you, so even though your body will die because of sin, the Spirit gives you life* because you have been made right with God.

NLT

The spirit that lives in a man controls the man. You were born with a spirit that was sinful in nature and that was why you were born a sinner. When you became born again, it was your spirit that was born again into a new man; born of the Holy Spirit thereby producing the nature of the Holy Spirit (the former was born of flesh). The Holy Spirit therefore dwells in your Spirit and He quickens, controls and strengthens your spirit, mind and physical body so that you can do the will of God.

If you have the Holy Spirit living in you, you cannot be controlled by the sinful nature but by the Spirit.

Many Christians that walk in the flesh usually do this because they have left the Holy Spirit’s control. You cannot afford to do this if you want to live the life of peace and joy in the kingdom of God.

Make up your mind that you will go around with a Holy Spirit consciousness (a God consciousness). Let the words of God dwell in you richly that you may express His nature indeed.

Prayer: Dear Lord God, I thank you for this day. I thank you for your love and mercy. I pray that you fill me with the Holy Spirit that I may walk on the earth as your child. Thank you father for hearing me, I Jesus name I pray. Amen
