Theme: There is a war inside of us for rulership between Spirit and flesh. There can be only one king!

God speaks to us through the Holy Spirit by the Bible, prayer, circumstances, and the church.

In Christ, you’re “special!”

But you have an anointing from the Holy One, and you all know.

1 Peter 2:9-10

But you are A CHOSEN RACE, A royal PRIESTHOOD, A HOLY NATION, A PEOPLE FOR [God's] OWN POSSESSION, so that you may proclaim the excellencies of Him who has called you out of darkness into His marvelous light; 10 for you once were NOT A PEOPLE, but now you are THE PEOPLE OF GOD; you had NOT RECEIVED MERCY, but now you have RECEIVED MERCY.

In Christ, you’re new!

2 Corinthians 5:17

Therefore if anyone is in Christ, [he is] a new creature; the old things passed away; behold, new things have come.

The clarity from calling and confirmation is intended to produce the endurance needed to obey in difficult circumstance.

1 Corinthians 14:3

But one who prophesies speaks to men for edification and exhortation and consolation. 4 One who speaks in a tongue edifies himself; but one who prophesies edifies the church.

And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may prove what the will of God is, that which is good and acceptable and perfect.

1 Corinthians 3:1-3

And I, brethren, could not speak to you as to spiritual men, but as to men of flesh, as to infants in Christ. 2 I gave you milk to drink, not solid food; for you were not yet able [to receive it.] Indeed, even now you are not yet able, 3 for you are still fleshly. For since there is jealousy and strife among you, are you not fleshly, and are you not walking like mere men?
