“I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me.” Galatians 2:20
The crucified life is one that is wholly given over to God in absolute humility and obedience. It is a life of sacrifice that is pleasing to the Lord.
Living a crucified life implies being dead to sin and being alive to God in holiness and righteousness.
Children of God living this way are transformed in character into the image of God that they possess within them through Christ.
You need to enforce the power of the crucified life that you possess inside of you continually by not yielding your natural body as an instrument to sin.
Galatians 5:24 says clearly that those who belong to Jesus Christ by being born again have crucified the flesh with its affection and lusts. You need to believe this and walk in its reality.
We attain this level of grace by daily walking in the Holy Spirit, who lives inside us.
Father, I receive the grace to walk in the reality of Your truth that my flesh has been crucified; help me to daily walk in the life of the resurrected Christ in Jesus Name.
Shalom!
