There is now no condemnation,
For those who are in Jesus Christ;
The Law of the Spirit has done,
Sets you free who was sacrificed.
You are free from the sin and death,
From what God has done with the Law;
Strengthens the flesh with every breath,
Erasing the sin from the flaw.
Because of our flesh is weak,
And as God by sending His Son;
Confession through prayer that will seek,
Giving you the victory won.
That the righteousness of the Law,
Might be fulfilled in the Spirit;
Prayer is the means for you to call,
With righteousness for your merit.
Living to the flesh sets your mind,
Is setting thoughts on carnal things;
Living by the Spirit is aligned,
The flow of a blessing that brings.
To be carnal minded is death,
Spiritual minds is life and peace;
The Spirit gives life through each breath,
Enticements that allure will cease.
Carnal minds are hostile to God,
It does not submit to His Law;
They never give honor and laud,
Causing someone another flaw.
Those in the flesh cannot please God,
But if you are in the Spirit;
God dwells in you who will applaud,
Because of your righteous merit.
The body is dead from your sin,
The Spirit is life if righteous;
Your salvation will then begin,
When acquitted through His justice.
