Romans 7:23
". . . but I see another law at work in the members of my body, waging war against the law of my mind and making me a prisoner of the law of sin at work within my members." NIV
"But I see another law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity to the law of sin which is in my members." KJV
There are two laws in conflict within us all the time. God's law, which is His Spirit guiding us into truth, and the law of sin which seeks to satisfy our physical senses and desires. If we do nothing with this conflict, our natural desires will automatically have precedence. If we allow the Holy Spirit to guide us, we will not give in to the human nature in us, but to the living Spirit of God in us.
Heavenly Father, how we need your grace and mercy as we live in this world with the conflict so active in the spiritual realm. We thank you for your loving faithfulness to us so that we can have all we need to allow the Holy Spirit to rule in our hearts. We pray in Jesus' name, Amen.
