Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney ...
When we do the works of the flesh, we give place to devils.
Ephesians 4:26 Be ye angry, and sin not: let not the sun go down upon your wrath:
Before we are born again, we do the works of the flesh.
Galatians 5:19-21
19 Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness,
20 Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies,
21 Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.

After we are born again, we have the Holy Spirit of God, and then we can control our flesh by the Holy Spirit, by following the Spirit.
2 Corinthians 5:17 Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.

Galatians 5:22-25
22-23 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness, temperance: against such there is no law.
24 And they that are Christ's have crucified the flesh (keeping our flesh dead) with the affections and lusts.
25 If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit.
The flesh brings to mind something we can do that is of the flesh. But we choose to do that which is of the Holy Spirit, keeping our flesh under control of the Spirit.
