Minister Louis shares a timely message about the sacrifices we need to make in the Christian journey. Just like in any society, say a country, we choose to be associated with, we need to abide by their own systems and principles, the same applies to our walk with God. On this journey, we need to shed weight that will prevent us from success and apply the principles of God's kingdom.
He goes further to elaborate on the first point which is to put death to flesh. Now, this is not easy because we are sinful by nature. Even Paul, who wrote two-thirds of the Gospel, cries out in Romans 7:18 (NIV), For I know that good itself does not dwell in me, that is, in my sinful nature [Or my flesh]. For I have the desire to do what is good, but I cannot carry it out. Therefore on this journey, we need help from the Holy Spirit. Hence, Minister Louis cites Paul's continuous message in Romans 8, Life through the Spirit.
He also goes on further to elucidate steps we can take to be successful in our divine pursuit, 1. Death to Flesh, 2. Obedience, 3. Service, 4. Humility, 5. Purity, 6. Sacrifice.
