I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service. — ROMANS 12:1(NKJV)

What we need to do is crucify the flesh. Crucifying the flesh is not something God does for you. It is something you do for yourself. Present your body as a living sacrifice. You present your body. You do it! You do it! It is the inward man—not the outward man—that becomes a new creature in Christ. We still have the same body we had before we became a new creature. What we must learn to do is to let that new man on the inside of us dominate. With that new man, we control the flesh.

“Therefore, if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.” 2 CORINTHIANS 5:17(KJV)

It is the man on the inside who has become a new creature in Christ Jesus and is filled with the Holy Spirit.  The man on the inside is the new creature that was born again and filled with the Holy Spirit and is the one that has the capacity to dominate the outward man. Just because your body wants to do wrong, doesn’t mean you are not saved, or that you are not filled with the Holy Spirit. You will have to crucify the flesh, as long as you are in this world. Put your flesh until control.

Prayer of the Day: Father in the name of Jesus, I receive the power by your Spirit to keep my flesh under control. I declare that I recognize and follow the detect of the Spirit in all areas and all decision in my life
