Grace for your spirit January 14, 2009

Like a city that is broken into and without walls, Is a man who has no control over his spirit. Proverbs 25:28

In Bible days, the best defense for cities against enemies were strong walls. When an enemy would break down the doors, they would tear down the walls, and all hope for the inhabitants would be gone. God makes this comparison to a life that is out of control. When we have no control over our spirit, the enemy has overran us. When the devil is controlling our thoughts, our actions, we have lost all of our resistance and protection, and we will be lost. God provides protection for our spirit with His Holy Spirit. When we push the His Spirit out of our lives, the devil will move right in, and take control of our spirit. Let’s be a watchman on the wall of our spirit.

The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit
Philippians 4:23
