Key Element for Thriving Relationships-Walk with God’s Spirit

December 13th, 2022

JOHN SHIRK – Today’s Key Element for Thriving Relationships is Walking with God’s Spirit.

Galatians 5:19 to 26 presents two very different lists. Which list contains qualities that lead to thriving relationships?  The first list consists of Hatred, discord, jealousy, impurity, fits of rage, selfish ambition.

The second list consists of love, joy, peace, kindness, goodness, and faithfulness.

The answer is obvious. The first list flows out of the acts of the flesh. The second list is the fruit of the Spirit and flows out of keeping in step with the Spirit of God.

This is how God’s Spirit instructs us to live. “You were called to be free. But do not use your freedom to indulge the flesh; rather, serve one another humbly in love.”

Walking with God’s Spirit is a key element for thriving relationships that honor God.
