Amen.
The Apostle Peter tells us that “the passions of the flesh” are waging “war against” our “souls” (1 Peter 2:11). Don’t underestimate the significance of this daily battle for our souls. So, how are we to fight? With what weapons do we wage this war? Peter says we do so “as (or because we are) sojourners and exiles” (v. 11a; see 1 Peter 1:1,17).
His point is that we should draw strength to say No to fleshly passions because they belong to this world and we don’t! We are citizens of a heavenly kingdom that operates under the Lordship of Christ. The culture of heaven is governed by a different ethic, a different spirit, a different morality. So remind yourself often of where you belong. We belong to the Lord Jesus, not to this world, so take your cues from him…

Absolutely Steve. Many thanks.
Amen! I love this…thank you. So many of those who identify as Christians try to live with one foot in and one foot out..they stay “lukewarm” instead of becoming Spirit Filled and on fire for the Lord…but the movement of being all in for the Kingdom of God is gaining ground..the “Kingdom Culture” lifestyle is growing as we experience an OUTPOURING of the Spirit in these Last Days.
