POWER TO CONTROL

Galatians 5:22 (TLB) But when the Holy Spirit controls our lives he will produce this kind of fruit in us: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness,   As an observer of nature, it's clear that when a house is neglected, nature quickly takes over. Animals will make their homes inside, while plants will overgrow. The very same animals and plants that were once prevented from entering the property by its owners will now claim it as their domain. This highlights the importance of man's responsibility to dominate and manage what's been created. The same applies to your own physical dwelling – your body. Unless it's properly maintained, it will soon exert control over you. Many people think of the lust of the flesh only in sexual terms. However, controlling our appetite for food is equally important. Apostle Paul said he put his body under subjection every day. This means disciplining one's body rather than letting the appetites of the flesh control.    You too can exercise control over your appetite. Try this simple exercise. The next time you feel hungry, wait a few minutes before eating, even if food is right in front of you. This small change reminds your flesh that you’re in control and can help you take charge of your appetite.   PROPHETIC DECLARATION My appetites are under the influence of the Holy Ghost. I create an environment of Heaven on Earth in my physical body by prioritizing my spirit and exercising self-control.   FURTHER STUDY 1 Corinthians 9:27   DOWNLOAD YOUR FREE COPY OF THE GOODNEWS DAILY DEVOTIONAL AT: www.goodnewsworld.com/goodnewsdaily
