Taking Back What Belongs To You

Transform means "change complete".
Walk in love and freedom.

Freedom means understanding what you're dealing with.
Like fear. and I'm not going to bow down to it.

Adam sinned and everything gets passed down to us.
Jesus fixed it and everything he has gets passed down to us.

We've been robbed.

Full commitment to God. No foot in the world.

If you've got a problem, ask God what is wrong.

Religion
God will not love you more than He does right now.
He already loves you completely.
No amount of work will buy love for you.

Favor of God translates into:
Old Testament / religion / living by the law: physical wealth.
New Testament / living by grace: hardship and sacrifice.

John 10:10
The thief comes only in order to steal and kill and destroy. I

came that they may have and enjoy life, and have it in

abundance (to the full, till it overflows).

The thief is the system of religion, i.e. Pharisees.


Your problems in the past is etched in the way you think.
Compare it with the Bible.

God uses us when we didn't even know about it.

Isaiah 42

Dare to believe that no matter how long you've been messed

up, God can help you.

The more you focus on your faults, the more power it has over

you.

Don't : Don't walk in the flesh.
DO: Walk in the Spirit and you will not satisfy the lusts of the flesh.

Guilt is not the answer, Jesus is the answer.

Joshua and Caleb is indicative of the amount of Christians that

know who they are in Christ.

Anything you run from is going to be waiting for you somewhere

else. The only way out is through. Confront.

Press through doing what God wants you to do.

Have your mind set that you're going press past what you're

running away from.


Joshua 1:2-3
Dispossess to possess.

You don't have to fight the devil all the time.
You just need to know the truth, act on the truth
and the truth will make you free.

repent - penthouse is the highest place in the building.
when you repent, you go back to the highest place in God.


God changes us from glory to glory.

You leave because you can't stand your neighbor, and then you move to 2 more just like them.

You weren't really saved, after all.

I want your will in my life and
I'm expecting You to take care of this.
