Galatians 5:16 - " But I say walk by the Spirit and you will not carry out the desire of the flesh."
To walk out the Christian life, we must do so with purpose and intention. Proverbs 3:5 tells us that if we trust in the Lord and acknowledge Him in all our ways that He will make our paths straight. Similarly, walking with the Spirit's leading is not difficult to discern if we are truly submitted to God.
The ways of the Lord are never compromised or crooked but rather straight paths of integrity. Probably the easiest way to understand this is if we keep doing the right things we won't have time to do the wrong. Both the desire and the ability to do so will come if we ask the Lord who supplies all our needs. Through our simple obedience, we will make straight paths for for ourselves to God and clear ways for others to follow.
