The Spirit is above the Law

 But if ye be led of the Spirit, ye are not under the law.Galatians 5:18

The Law was first given because of the sins and hardened heart of human. Though it was given to guide the Israelites so that they could be righteous but never made them righteous and it never stopped them from being ruled by the flesh. The Law couldn’t fulfill itself by making human righteous.
However, Christ purpose through the help of the Holy Spirit fulfilled the Law and this fulfillment is to make human righteous that is; to be above the law and sin. (Romans 8:4) “That the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.”

There’s a condition in Gal 5:18 & Romans 8:4 ; for any believer that would live above the Law and the  works of the flesh such a believer must be prepared to be led by the Spirit. Being led by the Spirit encompasses all the fruits of the Spirit 
Galatians 5:22-23  But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law.
The Scripture clarified it that through these fruits of the Spirit there is no law.

Conclusion:
Do you want to be above the Law and the flesh. covet and ask God for the fruits of the Spirit today.
