174. An Encounter- Laying Down Our Weapons of Self Sabotage in Exchange for the Armor of God
Hey friend, I don't know about you but sometimes I am my own worst enemy. I have picked up my own weapons of self-defense which have turned into weapons of self sabotage. Today I want to walk you through a time with Jesus to exchange our old dull thought patterns which are hurting our hearts in exchange for the freedom and empowering glory of His armor. Grab a journal. Grab a pen. Sit in a quiet space and dig into the truth of His word over you. As always, please feel free to reach out for prayer inside of our FB group, with a friend, a counselor, or spiritual mentor or pastor. Jesus wants you to walk in your KINGDOM identity. Anchoring Scriptures: Isaiah 54: 17 No weapon formed against me shall prosper. 2 Corinthians 10: 3-6 For although we live in the natural realm, we don’t wage a military campaign employing human weapons, using manipulation to achieve our aims. Instead, our spiritual weapons are energized with divine power to effectively dismantle the defenses behind which people hide. 5We can demolish every deceptive fantasy that opposes God and break through every arrogant attitude that is raised up in defiance of the true knowledge of God. We capture, like prisoners of war, every thought and insist that it bow in obedience to the Anointed One. 6Since we are armed with such dynamic weaponry, we stand ready to punish any trace of rebellion, as soon as you choose complete obedience. Ephesians 6: 11-16 11Put on God’s complete set of armor provided for us, so that you will be protected as you fight against the evil strategies of the accuser! 12Your hand-to-hand combat is not with human beings, but with the highest principalities and authorities operating in rebellion under the heavenly realms. For they are a powerful class of demon-gods and evil spirits that hold this dark world in bondage. 13Because of this, you must wear all the armor that God provides so you’re protected as you confront the slanderer, for you are destined for all things and will rise victorious. 14Put on truth as a belt to strengthen you to stand in triumph. Put on holiness as the protective armor that covers your heart. 15Stand on your feet alert, then you’ll always be ready to share the blessings of peace. 16In every battle, take faith as your wrap-around shield, for it is able to extinguish the blazing arrows coming at you from the evil one! 17-18Embrace the power of salvation’s full deliverance, like a helmet to protect your thoughts from lies. And take the mighty razor-sharp Spirit-sword of the spoken word of God. Romans 13:12 1Be enthusiastic to serve the Lord, keeping your passion toward him boiling hot! Radiate with the glow of the Holy Spirit and let him fill you with excitement as you serve him. 12Let this hope burst forth within you, releasing a continual joy. Don’t give up in a time of trouble, but commune with God at all times. Love what we are doing here on Wholistic Hearts, here are three ways to help us spread this Good News Share with a friend!
