Day 18: Romans 8: 1-11: Life in the Spirit

You are not condemned. You are empowered by the Spirit.Paul opens this chapter with a life-changing truth: There is now no condemnation for those in Christ.Because of Jesus, the guilty verdict has been removed. And through the Holy Spirit, we are empowered to live differently. The Spirit does what the law could not- it brings life, peace, and transformation. This is not about trying harder. It is about living from the power of God within you. Reflection ?: Do your daily thoughts lean more toward self-reliance or dependence on the Spirit?Dig Deeper: What deoes it practically mean to "set your mind on the Spirit?"
