Once you’re born again, the rest of the Christian life is learning to walk in the spirit. It’s letting what God has done through the new birth dominate you more than your physical, emotional realm.
That’s really how simple the Christian life is!
It may be simple, but it’s not easy! One of the hardest things you’ll ever do is learn how to turn from your natural self-rule and let who you are in Christ dominate instead. Why is it so difficult?
You must perceive your spirit by faith in God’s Word because you can’t see or feel it. Jesus’ words are spirit and life (John 6:63).
When you look into God’s Word, you’re looking into a spiritual mirror (James 1:23-25). The only way to really know what is true about who you are in the spirit is by believing God’s Word. You must shift from walking by sight (sense knowledge) to walking by faith (revelation knowledge) (2 Cor. 5:7). All you have to do is start basing your thoughts, actions, and identity on who you are in Christ.
