Many People including some pastors continually state "I make mistakes and sin all the time and will continue to do so... after all I'm human and so thankful that Grace covers all my sins" When one walks in the Spirit one understands that our battle is not with our flesh but with evil powers. If we truly desire to do Gods will the Lord has given every true believer the armor, power and the authority to triumph over sin. Because of Gods Grace, he has given us through our belief in his son Jesus, his Spirit. The same spirit that dwelt in Christ when he became flesh. It was his connection to God, the direct channel through which Gods will, power, comfort and strength flowed through Jesus. Christ continually drew from the Spirit while living here in the flesh. Upon returning to heaven he had paid the price to buy the Salvation for all who believe. To the believers he left his precious gift of the Holy Spirit, apart of himself, to live in us the same way the Spirit lived in him. He lived to show us how to live! His death paid the price for a permanent connection! Our works and deeds show what we believe. If we believe in the Trinity we have living inside us the Word, all that is necessary to grow and stand strong against any evil power. Gods Grace sets us free to Boldly take a stand and win not to cower and continue on in sin or blaming ones flesh for losing the battle.When we choose to walk and grow in his Spirit, we are choosing to fight the enemy causing our evil fleshly desires.When we put on the whole armor of God ....We Win!
