Lesson 28 Warring Against the Flesh Review
Question 7
Our Call to War
Oh, friend, like David, you too can be assured that the Lord is for you and that He has provided everything you need to win the fight against your flesh! So fight! Fight in the shadow of the cross, knowing Jesus reconciled you to God through His death (2 Corinthians 5:18-20), knowing that Jesus has paid your sin debt in full (Romans 5:6-8), knowing that Jesus has removed your guilt (Romans 3:25-28), knowing that Jesus has taken all of God’s wrath for you (1 Thessalonians 1:10), knowing that Jesus has gone before you to defeat your enemy (Colossians 2:15, Hebrews 2:14-15)!
Seek the Lord for plans, make them specific, step out by faith, and you’ll see God’s power working in and through you to defeat the army of substances! Bam! Down they go!

I was reminded that the first step to war against the flesh is death! I have to die daily! I make this a reality by denying myself, going to share my faith, giving my heart to the brothers and sisters during fellowship, trying to put other people's needs above my own. I have to radically attack any desire that sets itself up against God. I was also reminded that Jesus goes before me to defeat my enemies. SO I am not a victim of substance abuse, I am a victor over it.
This was our last lesson on warring against our flesh. Are you fighting with God's plan, friend? If so, I know you are walking in victory. I was decades in bondage to sin and have been free for decades now; I'm praying that this will be true of you too.
In the next lesson, we will see an amazing illustration of how to apply all three principles of freedom: washing at the cross, walking by the Spirit, and warring against the flesh.
