Galatians;2:20b( NASB20)………………………………………….and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself up for me.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The above words are describing the practical side of someone who is living after the Spirit, that being, what one’s inner life of faith actually looks like in real terms… The ‘I now live’ puts everything in the present present, this is what one’s life is to look like on a moment by moment basis, a life of one following after the Spirit by faith….
This is where the peace of Christ in the heart plays its role as the director, as the arbiter in one’s life, as the pointer of what to do and what not to do….. This constant looking to Christ by faith to live His life of righteousness in and through one…. Because Jesus did die and the believing one with Him, now all things take a second place to this being joined with Christ in both His death and resurrection….
I.E. the life of faith is lived out practically as one goes through their day….The life of the Spirit of faith becomes more and more real as it is seen Christ of a truth does deliver one from sin…. Sin stays very real and alive but being joined with Christ when He died sets one free from the power of sin that dwells in one…. This can and will only be experienced to the degree one would rather die then sin, for when one would willingly enter into Christ’s death rather then sin, that one as fast as a blink of an eye is set free from whatever they would rather die to then sin….
As the experience of this is experienced does one’s joy in their salvation become a palpable thing….. Because Christ’s deliverance from sin is real and it is for the time in this world, accessing this deliverance is done by the faith of the heart being willing to die to all the things of this world….
Be blessed in accessing the deliverance that being joined with Christ brings, and the new life that follows…
