Galatians 5:16-17
So I say, walk by the Spirit, and you will not gratify the desires of the flesh. For the flesh desires what is contrary to the Spirit, and the Spirit what is contrary to the flesh. They are in conflict with each other, so that you are not to do whatever[s] you want.

Sometimes, what we want is contrary to what God's want for us. So if we really want to do what is pleasing to our God, Let us walk with his Spirit.
