Romans 8:8, “So then they that are in the flesh cannot please God.” Why?  Because God is spirit and they that worship Him must worship Him in spirit and in truth. Galatians 5:17, “For the flesh lusteth against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; and these are contrary the one to the other, so that ye cannot do the things that ye would.” The flesh and spirit are contrary to each other. They lust/war against each other. The purpose: that you would walk in, live in the spirit. There is no question about your desire to serve God. There is no question about your desire to be faithful unto Him. But if you do not deal with the battle of the flesh/body, then it will keep you from doing the thing for God that you desire to do.
