How to Know if You are Carnal
IF NOT, WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR? YOU MAY NOT BE ABLE TO DO SO TOMORROW.

How to Know If You Are Carnal
I Corinthians 3:3, “For ye are yet carnal: for whereas there is among
you envying, and strife, and divisions, are ye not carnal, and walk as
men?"
According to the scripture above, to be carnal is to walk as
men: to behave, speak, and think in the manner men do, and a few ways a
Christian can behave as a natural man is through walking in envy, strife and
divisions in the Body of Christ. Other
terms for being carnal are walking in the flesh, walking in darkness, and not
being led by the Spirit of God.
Matthew 5:16, “Let your light so shine before men, that they may see
your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.”
Instead of walking in carnality, God wants us to let our “lights
shine” before men. What is this
light? It is our good works, which is different
from that of the world because it is based on the teachings of Jesus
Christ. When we do this, the Scripture
states that the Father gets glorified in heaven because we were created to be
the praise of His glory.
There are too many of us who are in the Body of Christ and
are still walking according to the flesh.
The light of Jesus Christ is not shining through us as it is supposed
to, and we have become candles placed under a bushel rather than cities placed
on a hill—a thing that is hidden instead of a thing that is seen. Your light sparkles when you spread the good
news of the Gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ as well as live the life God
ordained for you to live.
When you walk in darkness you blend in with the world and become
difficult to be seen; that’s why the Bible commands to be in the world and not
be conformed to the world, for this is not the life God desires for you. He wants you to standout as light on a dark
night. He wants you to live according to
the Word of God and not according to the wisdom of men. You must endeavor to live by the Bible. God’s
Word should be the number one authority in your life. Anything else is secondary
and should be compared to the Word of God.
Romans 8:14, “For as many as are led by the Spirit of
God, they are the sons of God.”
Beloved, sons of God are led by the Spirit of God and as a
result have life and peace. Children of
God please God because they are spiritually-minded--they are subjected to the
law of God. The carnal mind cannot
please God because it does not subject to the law of God, and thus, it
brings death.
Romans 8:13, “For if ye live after the flesh, ye shall
die: but if ye through the Spirit do mortify the deeds of the body, ye shall
live.”

It All Depends on You
Last week, I read an article about a young student who
contracted a flesh-eating disease after an accident, which led to her losing
one limb and is threatening the others.
I immediately looked at my life and decided that I would not want to be
in her shoes and instantly repented of the little things that I was
complaining about.
Sometimes, we need to remind ourselves to be thankful and
sing praises. It is so easy to focus on
the negatives but it takes effort to focus on the positives. It is so easy to focus on what is wrong and
not on what is right in our lives. Many
times, we overlook how blessed we are and need to be reminded through the life
experiences of others.
The choice is yours.
You can decide to be a positive thinking individual or a negative
thinking one. You can decide to
be a person who looks up at all times or a person who looks down at all
times. You can decide to be pessimistic
or optimistic. You can decide to see the
glass half-full or half-empty. You have
the power to do it. It all depends on
you.
Psalm 92:1, “It is a good thing to give thanks unto the LORD, and to
sing praises unto thy name, O most High.”

It's not what I build in the Kingdom of God; but it is more whether what I build will withstand the fire of God and REMAIN.
Strive to be a masterbuilder in the Kingdom of God and not a destroyer.
Remember, you are a laborer with God and not with man.
Remember, you are His husbandry.

Let not your faith stand in the wisdom of men; but in the power of God.
