Walking according to the spirit is something that we should do. It is something that we need to do. Romans 8:5:
That the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit
If we are going to fulfill “the righteousness of the law” then we are going to have to learn how to walk according to the spirit.

How do we walk according to the spirit? We know that the spirit is holy and we have an idea what spirit is, see: Holy Spirit Defined . Since holy means separated or that which is separate, to walk according to the spirit is a “holy” act.
How Do We Walk According To The Spirit?
This is a very important question. The answer is not that easy. People have asked this question for over two-thousand years now. So what are we to do? How are we going to answer this very important question? The answer must be in the scriptures. So it is there that we must look for our answer.
We want to know that we are walking by the spirit. We want to be sure that we have the right spirit and not a counterfeit. How can we do this? The first thing is to know what God’s written word says_memorize scripture so we have it in our minds. Then line up our thinking with / by this written word. Ask yourself, “Does what I am thinking line up with this written word?”
Remember that the scriptures are God breathed. They are words that come form the spirit, not from man. The scriptures are the “sure word of prophesy.” 2Peter 1:19:
The scriptures are that, “sure word of prophesy” spoken of here in 2Peter 1:19 (hint: memorize this verse!)

God is a spirit. I love Him. He gives us everything that we need to live and that eternally.
If we are going to walk by His spitit, and indeed we must, then we are going to have to get to know Him. We are going to have to learn what His spirit says, and where are we going to learn that? In His word the Bible where His spirit is revealed.
The entire Bible is an prophetic writing. It is all inspired by the spirit. It all came from the spirit. Isn’t that great? The entire Bible is written by the spirit. It is a spiritual book, that is , it did not come from the five senses, but from the spirit which is unseen in the senses relm.
