To walk in the Spirit (verses 2 and 3) means to be under control of the Spirit, to walk in the flesh means to be under control of the flesh. Every Christian has within him to opposing powers; the flesh and the spirit. There is a warfare going on between them. The Holy Spirit wants us to do God’s will and the flesh wants to please itself. 1 Galatians 6:8 “He that soweth to his flesh shall of the flesh reap corruption, he that soweth to the spirit shall of the spirit reap life everlasting.” How can we overcome the flesh? Galatians 5:16 “Walk in the Spirit and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh.”
