Control 

I do not understand what I do. For what I want to do I do not do, but what I hate I do. I know that nothing good lives in me, that is, in my flesh. For I have the desire to do what is good, but I cannot carry it out. –  Romans 7:15,18

When have you felt this way?

Why do you think it is so difficult to do the things that you want to do?

 

Those controlled by the flesh cannot please God. You, however, are controlled not by the flesh but by the Spirit, if the Spirit of God lives in you. Romans 8:8-9

 

What do you think it means to be controlled by the flesh?

What does it mean to be led by the Spirit?

 

Make it personal

What is an area you tend to be led by your flesh?

Is there anything you continue to do that you do not want to do?

How can you learn to let the Holy Spirit lead you in this area?
