Spiritual Maintenance

Admit To Ourselves

In order to be spiritually on track, in other words, in order to deny our flesh, we must admit our fleshly desires so that we may learn the first steps to tackling them. One of our issues with getting rid of the flesh is lack of focus, we focus so much on the cares of this world, social media, Television, sports, music, video games, racism, conspiracies, drugs, partying, working, money, success etc.

In order to battle this flesh, we must admit our issues...yes! it’s a must in this walk.. we have to be honest with ourselves, because we are not fooling anyone.. instead we are becoming the fool if we deny we have a spiritual problem which causes us to react negatively in our everyday physical lives.

Read Galations 5:19-21

19)”And the works of the flesh are well-known, which are these: adultery, whoring uncleanness, indecency,

20)”Idolatry, drug sorcery, hatred, quarrels, jealousies, fits of rage, selfish ambitions, dissensions, factions

21)”envy, murders, drunkenness, wild parties, and the like-- of which I forewarn you, even as I also said before, that those who practice such as these shall NOT inherit the reign of Alahiym.

Have you read the works of the flesh yet? It’s also recommended, to read the precepts as well and look up each definition of these words to analyze them carefully to find out whether you have any of these characters or even if you have all of them.. We’ve got a long week ahead of us…The good thing is.. Just think of this being our next step to spiritual growth!

Now let’s get a sheet of paper and after reading and studying the works of the flesh, this is where the writing down comes in...Write down on the sheet of paper all the fleshly characters you feel still cling to you that you need to work on letting go.. This is a MUST..How else will we get it right.. right?!

Next, Pray and ask The Most High to guide you and give you will power to abstain from fleshly desires..because I find that when you lack spiritual strength, this is where backsliding takes place; you have no strength spiritually to keep you on the right path and stay on that path.. So Praying daily on these issues is a must as well..

Search And Destroy

Have you figured out your spiritual issue/issues? Now what? What should we do to tackle the task at hand? here’s our homework..

Look for scriptures pertaining to the issues that you are dealing with in your life and study them, even look up precepts for them so that you can get a better understanding on what it is you need to do and do this daily…

Learn to examine yourself before you examine others...you may soon find out that you aren’t as spotless as you think…

We spend so much time pointing the fingers at one another but, we don’t do enough self evaluation.

And in turn of us not doing that, we end up being consumed with everyone else and everything else. Let us take a pause and do some self maintenance.

Galations 5:7

You were running well, who held you back from obeying the truth?”

Understanding That This Is An Every examination and you must pray for spiritual discernment to be able to differentiate what is right and wrong in your life and surroundings.. Keep in mind that YAH is with you every step of the way always and He will not leave you nor forsake you!

Let us work on fixing ourselves and in turn we can help fix each other.

This is the steps to spiritual maintenance..
