PRESENTING YOUR BODIES (FLESH – SENSES) TO GOD: THE EASIEST WAY TO KNOWING GOD’S WILL AND TO TRIUMPH IN CHRIST JESUS STEAD!
“This I say then, WALK in the Spirit, and ye shall not FULFIL the LUST of the FLESH . . . 24 And they that are Christ’s have CRUCIFIED the FLESH (SENSUAL) with the AFFECTIONS and LUSTS. 25 If we LIVE in the Spirit, let us also WALK in the Spirit” Galatians 5:16, 24-25 (Emphasis Mine).
I do know that every Believers in Christ wants to live triumphantly and experience the EASIEST way to their daily TRIUMPH and to be A MORE THAN CONQUERORS, OVERCOMER and VICTORIOUS (2 Corinthians 2:14; Romans 8:37; 1 John 5:4-5; 1 Corinthians 15:57); also, everyone in Christ Jesus stead wants to KNOW THE HOW and OPERATIVE PRINCIPLE in God’s WILL, for them, as they do life and live in grace, without obstructions.
Being a GOSPEL Minister have given me such a rare privilege to know relatively, the questions and the feelings of people who struggles day to day, in order to ensure that they are at peace within themselves, especially on matters affecting their personal relationship with God; and in the HOW they do life with others and in carrying out their daily earthly affairs. Unknown to some, the solution and matters are simple – it’s for you to PRESENT YOUR BODIES AS A LIVING SACRIFICES UNTO GOD.
But HOW can one present one’s BODIES to God as a living sacrifice? To present your BODIES simply means to hand over your SENSES which makes you BODY-RULED or FLESH-RULED toward God instead of being SPIRIT-RULED or WORD-RULED toward Him. The human body is functional by the operation of the FIVE SENSES: These senses are –
** Sight (Seeing),
** Hear (Hearing/Listening),
** Taste (Tasting),
** Feel (Feeling) or Touch (Touching) and
** Smell (Smelling).
These five senses have made and unmade humanity in various shape in what they have become to themselves and relatives to OTHERS intentionally and unintentionally. It’s of these senses that man failed and fall in the first place with God and himself. And many are still in such a great danger in their daily walk with God.
The scriptures enjoined us to WALK by FAITH SENSE – that’s by the WORD SENSE, for FAITH is functional by the WORD, it comes by the WORD and it’s build up by the WORD; hence we should not WALK by SIGHT – SENSE (Five Senses of seeing, hearing, smelling, tasting and feeling (touching).
More so, FAITH IS SPIRITUAL, and it’s of the Holy Spirit. Therefore, PRESENTING YOUR SENSES TO BE SPIRIT-LED (WORD LED), will ensure EASE and TRIUMPH in knowing and operating in God’s precious – GOOD, SURE, TRUE, ACCEPTABLE and PERFECT (wholesome, mature and complete) WILL for your life and unhindered in the grace wherein you stand in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:
“I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye PRESENT YOUR BODIES (SENSES) a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service. 2 And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the RENEWING OF YOUR MIND, that ye may PROVE what is that GOOD, and ACCEPTABLE, and PERFECT, WILL of God” Romans 12:1-2 (Emphasis Mine).
“I therefore so run, not as uncertainly; so fight I, not as one that beateth the air: 27 but I keep under my BODY (SENSES), and bring it into subjection: lest that by any means, when I have preached to others, I myself should be a castaway” 1 Corinthians 9:26-27 (Emphasis Mine)
“For we WALK by FAITH, not by SIGHT (SENSES)” 2 Corinthians 5:7 (Emphasis Mine)
“This I say then, WALK in the Spirit, and ye shall not FULFIL the LUST of the FLESH . . . 24 And they that are Christ’s have CRUCIFIED the FLESH (SENSUAL) with the AFFECTIONS and LUSTS. 25 If we LIVE in the Spirit, let us also WALK in the Spirit” Galatians 5:16, 24-25 (Emphasis Mine).
“LOVE not THE WORLD, neither THE THINGS that ARE in THE WORLD. If any man LOVE THE WORLD, the love of the Father is not in him. 16 For all that is in THE WORLD, THE LUST OF THE FLESH, and THE LUST OF THE EYES, and THE PRIDE OF LIFE, is not of the Father, but is of THE WORLD. 17 And THE WORLD passeth away, and THE LUST thereof: but he that DOETH the WILL of God ABIDETH for ever” 1 John 2:15-17.
“From whence come WARS and FIGHTINGS among you? come they not hence, even of your LUSTS that WAR in your members? 2 Ye LUST, and have not: ye KILL, and desire to have, and cannot obtain: ye FIGHT and WAR, yet ye have not, because ye ASK not. 3 Ye ASK, and RECEIVE not, because ye ASK amiss, that ye may CONSUME it upon your LUSTS. 4 Ye adulterers and adulteresses, know ye not that the FRIENDSHIP of the world is ENMITY with God? whosoever therefore will be a FRIEND of the world is the ENEMY of God. 5 Do ye think that the scripture saith in vain, The spirit that dwelleth in us LUSTETH to ENVY? 6 But he giveth more grace. Wherefore he saith, God RESISTETH the PROUD, but GIVETH GRACE unto the HUMBLE. 7 SUBMIT yourselves therefore to God. RESIST the devil, and he will FLEE from you. 8 Draw NIGH to God, and he will draw NIGH to you. CLEANSE your hands, ye sinners; and PURIFY your hearts, ye double minded. 9 Be afflicted, and mourn, and weep: let your laughter be turned to mourning, and your joy to heaviness. 10 HUMBLE yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and he shall LIFT you up” James 4:1-10.
