and let us know which passage
you’ve memorized.
Today’s passage: Galatians 5:16-26
16 So I say, let the Holy Spirit guide your lives.
Then you won’t be doing what your sinful
nature craves. 17 The sinful nature wants to do
evil, which is just the opposite of what the
Spirit wants. And the Spirit gives us desires
that are the opposite of what the sinful nature
desires. These two forces are constantly
fighting each other, so you are not free to carry
out your good intentions. 18 But when you are
directed by the Spirit, you are not under
obligation to the law of Moses.
Galatians 5:16-18 (NLT)
19 When you follow the desires of your sinful
nature, the results are very clear: sexual
immorality, impurity, lustful
pleasures, 20 idolatry, sorcery, hostility,
quarreling, jealousy, outbursts of anger, selfish
ambition, dissension, division,21 envy,
drunkenness, wild parties, and other sins like
these. Let me tell you again, as I have before,
that anyone living that sort of life will not
inherit the Kingdom of God.
Galatians 5:19-21 (NLT)
22 But the Holy Spirit produces this kind of fruit
in our lives: love, joy, peace, patience,
kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23 gentleness, and self-control. There is no law
against these things! Galatians 5:22-23 (NLT)
24 Those who belong to Christ Jesus have
nailed the passions and desires of their sinful
nature to his cross and crucified them
there. 25 Since we are living by the Spirit, let us
follow the Spirit’s leading in every part of our
lives. 26 Let us not become conceited, or
provoke one another, or be jealous of one
another. Galatians 5:24-26 (NLT)

Anything produced, accruing; a product
or a result.”
