If you can not handle violence then please dont watch the below video
I really like this video so if you want a soundtrack for this blog take a listen.
The mixed martial arts video demonstrates well what im about to talk about
One thing I have fully embraced on the race is honesty, brutal honesty. I have shared things with team mates early on in the race I never have with strangers before. I remember training camp before we even started the race, I was open and honest with parts of my past that I had tried to cover up. I ran up the cage and drop kicked the enemy in his face, and I have stayed in that place the ever since.
The amazing thing about the video is that no one had ever done that in Mixed Martial Arts before the guy had no clue why he was running up the side of the cage and next thing you know he gets smacked in the face. I believe its the same with the enemy he wants us to stay tamed, predictable, he wants us to respond to the fear inside and not act on what we should act on, or say we we should say.
For me this is why we need honesty with ourselves and one another
James 5:16
Therefore confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous man is powerful and effective.
GET IN THE ENEMIES FACE! HE'S SCARED OF YOU!
If you have people in your life, confess to them and be there for people when they confess to you. There is freedom in that so so so much freedom. I have tasted it and currently living it.
Yes you are not perfect, I am not perfect it dosent matter that I have just spread the gospel in 11 countries this past year. I am still flesh and blood, I still mess up, but its what I do with that, that matters the most.
Go ahead I dare you do the unexpected, kick the enemy in the face, do not let him trap you and keep you down. Fight to your very last breathe and the rest in him and who he is. He has you he holds you and he is the ultimate champion the beginning and the end AMEN
WHO EVER IS FREE IS FREE INDEED!
