Podcasts about Galatians 5

Send a textI once spoke with a woman who had spent years in a church a full of rules and regulations. When she finally moved to a church that simply taught Scripture without adding man‑made religious rules, she told me she felt something surprising:  FEAR!Those rules, she said, had given her a sense of security. When they were gone, she felt exposed. I also remember a teenage girl I once met at a youth club who reacted the opposite way.  When I told her we are not under the law, she said, “Great — that means I can lie to my mother, I can go out and party, and tell her I'm here at the youth club.”  And that's the problem. Whenever Christians hear that we're justified by faith apart from any legalistic requirements, some people panic. “Won't that give me a license to sin? And some say great, that gives me a license that means I can do whatever I want?” So, if we are not under the Mosaic law, what guides our conduct?That is exactly what Paul answers for us today in the second half of Galatians 5…..RISE RADIOEach week we discuss some of the most important issues we face in our society today.Listen on: Apple Podcasts SpotifySupport the showFollow and support me on Patreon.

Send a text For four chapters, he has been laying down argument after argument, Scripture after Scripture, illustration after illustration, pleading with them not to return to the bondage of the law....  But now the question he asks becomes: If we're not going back to the law, then what kind of life do we live now?Beginning in chapter 5 — and running through the rest of the letter — he finally explains it in detail.  This is the start of the practical section of Galatians. This is where Paul tells us what to put in place of the law. This is where he shows us how to live as people who have been set free….RISE RADIOEach week we discuss some of the most important issues we face in our society today.Listen on: Apple Podcasts SpotifySupport the showFollow and support me on Patreon.

This week Pastor Mike explores the importance of bearing one another's burdens and gospel-centered confrontation and confession.

Jesus promised Hisdisciples in Acts 1:8, “But you shall receive power, after that the HolyGhost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me….” My friend,when the Holy Spirit is upon us—when He is guiding and leading us—then we willbe praying in the Spirit with the power and authority of heaven behind our prayers. RememberRomans 8:1: “There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are inChrist Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit. In Romans 8:9-14, we read: “For if you live after the flesh, you shall die:but if you through the Spirit do mortify the deeds of the body, you shall live….”,“For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.” Inother words, Ephesians 5:18 tells us, “Be filled with the Spirit.” Onceyou have been born again, the Holy Spirit indwells you. As you yield yourselfto His control, He fills you and directs your life—your thoughts, yourattitudes, your desires. He imparts to you the very divine nature of God (2 Peter1:4). Whenyou are filled with the Spirit you will bear the fruit of the Spirit. Galatians5:22-23 says, “But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace,longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control.Against such there is no law”.  Myfriend, when you are praying in the Spirit, you have a heart of love, a heartof grace, a heart of mercy, gentleness, kindness, and patience. You cannot prayin the Spirit if you are impatient with God and impatient with others. Youcannot pray in the Spirit if your heart is filled with hatred, bitterness, orunforgiveness. In that condition, the Holy Spirit will not lead you in yourprayers. Thenwe come to Romans 8:26–27: “Likewise the Spirit also helps in ourweaknesses. For we do not know what we should pray for as we ought, but theSpirit Himself makes intercession for us with groanings which cannot beuttered. Now He who searches the hearts knows what the mind of the Spirit is,because He makes intercession for the saints according to the will of God”. Wehave the Holy Spirit to teach us to pray. Praying in the Spirit means prayingin dependence upon Him and in alignment with God's will. It means praying inharmony with Christ's name and His nature. It is the fruit of the Spiritflowing from our lives because we have yielded to Him. Prayingin the Spirit does not mean ecstatic speech or a loss of control, for 1Corinthians 14:32 says, “And the spirits of the prophets are subject to theprophets.” You can pray fervently in the flesh and accomplish nothing. Butyou can pray quietly in the Spirit, and heaven and earth are moved. That iswhat it means to pray in the Spirit. As we yield ourselves to the Holy Spirit,He directs our prayers. He gives guidance. He places in our hearts and mindsthe very things we should bring before the Lord in intercession. He fills uswith love for those around us. Youmay drive past an accident on the highway, and the Holy Spirit prompts you:Pray for those people that are injured. Pray for the first responders. Youdrive through a school zone and slow down and the Holy Spirit prompts you to prayfor the teachers and students. You are always ready to pray wherever you are,for whatever you might encounter as the Spirit prompts you! That is praying inthe Spirit. Itis so important to understand that any prayer that will have effect in heavenand move heaven and earth must be prayer offered in the Spirit. And remember,there is no condemnation. We pray with great confidence according to the mindand will of God when we are praying in the Spirit. The power of prayer isavailable to every believer who yields to the Holy Spirit. May God help us aswe all learn to pray in the Spirit. Godbless you, and may you have a wonderful, wonderful day.

In Galatians 5:13–15, Paul reminds believers that Christian freedom isn't a license for self-indulgence but a calling to love. Freedom from the burden of the law and the condemnation of sin, we're not released into selfish living but Spirit-empowered service. True freedom fulfills the righteousness the law demanded but could never produce! When we walk in love, we reflect the heart of God.

Join us for our Sunday morning study through Galatians.

Get the complete and comprehensive notes here!Victory in the Great Battle: Understanding the Flesh vs. the SpiritIn the life of every believer, there exists an internal conflict so significant that it determines the very quality of our walk with God. In his letter to the Galatians, the Apostle Paul identifies this as the struggle between the Flesh and the Spirit.This tension is not merely about “trying harder” to be good; it is about a fundamental shift in whose power we rely on to live a holy life.The Core of the Lesson: Liberty vs. LegalismMany Christians fall into the trap of legalism—attempting to keep God's righteous standards through human willpower. Paul argues that this is an “opportunity for the flesh” that inevitably leads to failure, pride, and division within the Church.The alternative is not license (sinning because we are under grace), but Liberty. True Christian freedom is the power to serve one another in love. When we “walk by the Spirit,” we are empowered by God Himself to fulfill the heart of the Law naturally, without the bondage of a written code.The Dual Nature and the Divine GuaranteeThe believer possesses two natures:The Flesh: Our innate sinful inclination that produces deeds like immorality, strife, and sorcery.The Spirit: The divine nature that produces the singular fruit of Love, Joy, Peace, and Self-control.Paul provides a divine guarantee in Galatians 5:16: If you are being led by the Spirit, it is impossible to satisfy the desires of the flesh. The Spirit cannot sin; therefore, when we are dependent on Him, victory is secured.Equip Your Ministry: The Complete Product PackageTo help you or your congregation master these truths, we have packaged this teaching into a comprehensive digital resource.

Send a textSupport the show

Here again we see the mind and love of God as he inspires the recording of his instructions for humanity as to how we demonstrate his personality in our everyday vocations. What we do is what defines us. We cannot please God yielding to the will of the flesh. It is important and imperative that we learn the desire of God by his word for believers and then embrace them and walk in them.

2/22/2026 - Galatians 5 - Built On Purpose: Surrender On Purpose by Pastor Dennis Fountain

In chapter 5 of Sinclair Ferguson's "Devoted to God," we confront an unavoidable reality: the Christian life is a battlefield. The moment you became a Christian, you stepped into a war zone where the flesh and the Spirit are locked in mortal combat for your soul.Paul's command in Galatians 5 is both a promise and a call to action: "Walk by the Spirit, and you will not gratify the desires of the flesh." This isn't about trying harder in your own strength. Christian holiness is rooted in what God has already done through Jesus Christ and the gift of the Holy Spirit.Ferguson helps us understand that we live with a foot in two ages. We live in the old age dominated by flesh, sin, and death, and the new age dominated by the Spirit, grace, and life. We explore the biblical pattern of indicative (what God has done) leading to imperative (how we're called to live), and discover five practical principles.This is a battle, but it's one we fight as wounded soldiers, encouraging each other onward and upward, always finding our resources in Christ.

Today’s Bible Verse: “A little yeast works through the whole batch of dough.” — Galatians 5:9 Galatians 5:9 uses a simple image to reveal a powerful truth: small influences have big impact. Paul warns that even a little false teaching or compromise can quietly shape the direction of our faith and lives. What seems minor at first can grow, spread, and affect everything.
