At War

This I say then, Walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh.
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. Galatians 5

Pastor spoke on how anger is a lust of the flesh.
I looked up some information, for myself to increase my understanding
Lust; is an uncontrolled inclination of the mind or will.
My thoughts then are the release of this anger, that brings satisfaction.
But only for a few moments.
In the calm after the storm, the Spirit comes and you realize that you could have handled the situation better.
In fact, had you taken a moment you would have heard the Spirit say,
"The anger that you are feeling right now is opposite in the nature and character, direction and position that the Lord would have you be."
Had you heard these words, you could have stopped the words or action.
The flesh is at war with the Spirit.
The battles between the two will be many, but the Spirit must triumph over the flesh for the Word says, "...of which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the Kingdom of God."
