Bible Passages – Matt 7:15-23 | Lk 3:1-9 | Gal 5:16-23 | Rev 1:7b, 11b, 17b | Rev 21:8 | Gal 5:22-23

THE FRUIT OF THE SPIRIT – AGAINST SUCH THERE IS NO LAW – Gal 5:22-23

Against Such There is No Law – Summary of Parts 1-16
Our concluding part is the 17th Part – Against Such There is No Law

The purpose of the law is to shed light on what is right, what is wrong, what God expects of us and to know the mind of God, as well as be able to access His blessings. The law is what we must do and no go against.

As many as the laws are they can be summarised in this Gal 5:22-23 as we need God to obey the law and once we live by the fruit of the Spirit we have obeyed all the laws of God.

Introduction

Remember and never forget without Jesus, without the Holy Spirit you can do nothing – John 15:5
The Lord is the Spirit. The fruit of the Spirit is of the Lord. Who can stand against the Spirit of the Lord. When the Spirit of the Lord brooded on the deep, nothing could stand against creation. Gen 1:1 | 2 Corinthians 3:17 | Luke 24:49

In the same manner, no power can stand again the Spirit of the Lord, and His fruit.

The Spirit of the Lord in man is the fruit of the Spirit

The power of the Lord in man is the fruit of the spirit

The presence of the Lord in a man is the fruit of the Spirit.

Where the fruit of the Spirit is, the Lord is there, the name of the Lord is there, the help and refuge of the Lord are there.
Where the Spirit of the Lord is not present, then the Lord will do nothing.

CONCLUSION

Enoch had it. Joshua had it. Daniel and his friends had it The Apostle Paul, Peter and John are great examples
That was what made Stephen prayed for his murderers and one of which was Saul/Paul, those are the categories that pray the will of God, those are the categories that should be prayer warriors and get their prayers answered, these are the sons of God indeed.

These are the Christian the world and the Lord are waiting to see manifestations of the sons of God, those are the Christian’s that can change our nation – at home, in the work places, markets places etc.

This is your calling as a Christian – against such there is no law Your life and living is risen above the law, you are no longer under the law.

For under the law is beneath the call of God for your life, under the law is living in the flesh, under the law is in the trap of the devil & Under the law is living by and for yourself.
