Throwing Off The Old Rags of Entanglement
We unknowingly entangle ourselves with strongholds when we are in agreement with a lie! I have been self atoning, as if Jesus wasn’t enough. God’s original intention wasn’t destruction. Jesus wants everything He paid for! Hebrews 9:14 says, “How much more will the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered Himself without blemish to God, cleanse your conscience from dead works to serve the living God?” We MUST TAKE EVERY thought captive its sets our hearts free! 2 Corinthians 10:3-5 says, “ For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war according to the flesh, for the weapons of our warfare are not of the flesh, but divinely power for the destruction of fortresses. We are destroying speculations and every lofty thing raised up against the knowledge of god, and we are taking every thought captive to the obedience of Christ.”
These are the lies I have been in agreement with far to long!
- Comparison
- Offense
- Pride
- Insecurities
- Loneliness
- People pleaser
- Worth/Value
- Anger
Fear of Man Put out your withered hands; Jesus wants to turn your hole into holiness! 1 John 3:3 says, “ And everyone who has this hope fixed on him purifies himself, just as He is pure.” Let whats dead (sin) stay dead. Be ruled by the Spirit. Through salvation you are no longer a sinner. Stop referring to yourself as such! You are a Saint. Jesus said we are Sons/Daughters, Co-heirs, and we are BROTHERS/SISTERS of Christ. Galatians 4:6-7 confirms this, “ And because you are sons, God has sent fourth his Spirit of His Son into our hearts, crying “ Abba! Father!” Therefore you are no longer a slave, but a son; and if a son, than an heir through Christ.” A confession is an agreement with another testifying your willingness to change. Hold me accountable. I want to be renewed by my truth!
What’s in your life that may be holding you back? Are you walking in truth and the fullness of your identity in Christ?
