The Fruit Of Self-Control
from Pastor's Bible Study · host Pastor Chad Thompson
Self-control is the last quality of the Fruit of the Spirit listed by Paul, but there can be no doubt about its importance to Christian living. Can we truly be in a place of pleasing God if we're not living in a way that we exercise self-control? We are to live controlled lives; lives in balance and in the boundaries of God's Word, will, and desire. Self-control in the physical realm may happen by our determination and will power, but strength and victory in the spiritual realm come only by yielding to the Holy Spirit. Surrender + Sacrifice produce self-control through the Spirit's power.
