DO YOU NOT KNOW? (2)

Rom 6:16 ESV
Do you not know that if you present yourselves to anyone as obedient slaves, you are slaves of the one whom you obey, either of sin, which leads to death, or of obedience, which leads to righteousness?

The visible physical universe was created and is sustained by the Invisible God from the invisible realm and was not designed to exist on its own but is inseparable from and controlled by the invisible spiritual world. This is the reason why certain circumstances would remain beyond our explanation and control except when seen and tackled from the perspective of the invisible controlling forces.

The first man Adam was made both a spiritual and a physical man, so he could rightfully relate with the physical earth and govern it from the spiritual realm. But when he disobeyed the spiritual law of God, he ceded the spiritual government of the earth.

The second man and last Adam, the Lord Jesus Christ who is God, came down from heaven and through obedience of the Father and sacrifice of himself for sin, fulfilled the demand of the law, subdued sin in the flesh and discontinued the reign of the devil in the lives of all those who believe.
But the devil still continues to subtly contend with those who have been redeemed just so he might gain control and enslave them once again. However, for as many who would not give in to his schemes would overcome indeed.

As the spiritual controls the physical, if one yields to the control of sin which is a spiritual force, he would become a slave of the fleshly lust of sin but if through obedience, he yields himself to the righteous Spirit of God, he would become a servant of righteousness and would walk in holiness.

As you go into the day, pray and submit yourself to God and present your body as an obedient instrument of righteousness.
