Principality

Galatians 5:22-23      New English Translation

22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23 gentleness, and self-control. Against such things there is no law.

 

Principality

 

Is it for man to control his whole person with their will?

 

For a man to control his whole person, I mean,

Is a principle of God, so how can we work with Him?

If only partially we give and call that full commitment?

Is control then by someone else and possibly called sin?

 

The devil may seize control whenever he has a change

He will not let go of that without a major battle

Injuries and forms of death will be on the field of our being

And everything is affected after all the dust is settled

 

Passivity reflects an attitude that directly comes from the will

It provides liberty for the wicked elements to function

A believer must no follow the thoughts in his head

But only that of the spirit throughout all intuition
