This is just a snippet from my devotional called : Holy Emotions- Biblical Response to Every Challenge.
This devotional (that you can find on youversion.com and do yourself) has blessed me so much, every day I do it , im like blown away. lol
Just something I wanted to share. Sometimes we feel so defeated because our flesh is so hard to kill, but we must understand that if it was easy, then it wouldn't be worth it. Next time you find yourself struggling with fleshly desires, think among things like this:
Anyone who desires to be used in a consequential way by God, understands the divine prerequisite in overcoming one's own fleshly responses to life. Your flesh, which also can be recognized as your human emotions, stands in opposition to your spirit and to God's Spirit in you, unless you have learned not only to discipline the flesh but crucify it as well.
If we want to be used by God and prosper in our life like he has individually promised, then 'flesh killing' is essential, dont beat yourself up for it. Use it as ammo, you know the devil will tempt you the MOST when God is using you for His kingdom!
Peace!
