Set Apart and Sanctified?
For now in Christ, it is our body
That is the temple, of the LORD
His Spirit, to dwell within us
Be dedicated, His glory poured.
Out of Control?
Not by our own efforts
Our flesh, cannot conquer
We need Jesus’ power
Without Him, we falter.
Self-Control
And as a branch, in His vine
Jesus tells us, keep abiding
To bear fruit, of God’s Spirit
His ‘Self-control’, He is providing.
Walk in the Spirit or Flesh?
For if ignoring, or ignorant
Of God’s truth and reality
We’re poorly armed in the fight
Against temptation, so face calamity.
Overcome Works of the Flesh
We daily crucify our flesh
As we abide, in Christ Jesus
Resolve to live, but by God’s Word
Assured God’s Spirit, is ever with us!
Our Battles are Won
For Jesus only, our Creator
Living in us, He can supply
His grace, ever sufficient
Simply trust Him, and abide.
He Fills My Cup
LORD God, fill my cup
In love chose to die
Living waters to give
That never runs dry.
Flesh or Spirit?
In Christ we are righteous
Through Him, overcome
By His Spirit, victorious
Our battles are won!
Leave No Leaven!
So like Israel, we too co-habit
Instead of purging, die to self
Compromising, we let our flesh
Pursue the carnal, and worldly wealth.
Sealed by God’s Spirit
Know if trusting, believing
The gospel of Jesus’ salvation
By the pledge, of His Spirit
We are sealed, His new creation!
