… the sinful nature but by the spirit if the spirit of God lives in you. And if anyone does not have the spirit of Christ. He doesn't belong to Christ. But if Christ is in you, your body is dead because of sin, and your spirit is alive because of righteousness. And if the spirit of him who raised Jesus from the dead is living in you, then he who raised Christ from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through his spirit. Therefore, brothers, we have an obligation, but it is not to the sinful nature to live according to it. For if you live according to the sinful nature, you will die. But if by the Spirit you put to death the misdeeds of the body, you will live. Because those who are led by the Spirit of God are sons of God. You did not receive a Spirit that makes you a slave again to fear. You received the Spirit of sonship. And by Him we cry, Abba, Father.

You don't have to try to do it. You don't have to try to get up. The Spirit is going to quicken your mortal body. By his Spirit that dwelleth in you. Oh my God, isn't that something? You don't have to put on at all. It is there for you. Keep going. Therefore, brethren, we are debtors not to the flesh to live after the flesh. I don't owe the flesh nothing.
