The fruits of the spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodnes,, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control, against such things there is no law.
The fruits of the spirit comes through fellowship with the Holy Spirit. We are to be like God. We are called to be like Christ. The fruits of the spirit will grow in our lives, like fruit grows on trees, they don't show up automatically, you have to work for them.
The world are offering things that might look like the fruits of the spirit, but if you have ever tasted the real thing, you would never want to eat from the world.
Walking in the flesh does not require strength, character of power. Walking in the spirit does require more from you, and will give a result in your life that will last. All fruits of the spirit will build you up and give you power to do the right thing, while walking in the flesh will pull you down and bind you. When we work with the Holy Spirit we will be lifted up and can lift up others.
The bible tells us we are more than conquerors (Rom 8:37). Sometimes we forget that to be a conqueror you actually have to defeat something. When we are fighting we can rejoice and stand on this verse as a promise.
The Holy Spirit is on our side and with Him inside you there is nothing you can not do. For every deed of the flesh there is a fruit of the spirit that is stronger. Choose life!
Have a wonderful day! When you feel like you are gliding down the mountain away from the glory of God, grab a hold of the rope you tied around the cross and pull yourself up again!
