For those who are according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh, but those who are according to the Spirit, the things of the Spirit.
For the mind set on the flesh is death, but the mind set on the Spirit is life and peace, because the mind set on the flesh is hostile toward God; for it does not subject itself to the law of God, for it is not even able to do so; and those who are in the flesh cannot please God. However, you are not in the flesh but in the Spirit, if indeed the Spirit of God dwells in you. But if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, he does not belong to Him.
And if Christ is in you, though the body is dead because of sin, yet the spirit is alive because of righteousness. But if the Spirit of Him who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you, He who raised Christ Jesus from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through His Spirit who indwells you.
Because the devil feeds on the carnal nature of man, when we fall into carnality we are feeding and strengthening his domain in our lives. We must learn to feed our spirits, not our carnal nature. We feed our spirits by keeping what we read, watch, or even think about pure. Our spirits will grow stronger by fellowship, sharing the gospel, and exercising the spiritual gifts that we have been given. We are told in 1 John 3:7-8,10-11:
Today @ 3:42p.m is the last quarter moon
- This is a period when the occult increase their enchantments, strength and fortification because of the many dedications that this month attracts from the kingdom of darkness
- The quarter moons are used by the occult as bows for shooting very destructive arrows of bitter words of curses, barrenness, calamities, failures, incest, and every imaginable evil against the righteous.
- Pray that every bitter word spoken by the occult during any phase of the moon should fall to the ground unfulfilled, and the Lord should turn all curses into blessings for His people worldwide. (1 Sam 3:19; Neh 13:2b)
