A Place to Grow

When you accepted Christ, you were made into a new creation that enabled you to leave your old habits and addictions behind. You have a choice to live holy or return to your past.

There are seven barriers that block your favor from God and we'll begin discussing those today. When you follow God, he showers you with blessing and favor. But disobedience can inhibit these.

The Bible tells us that Israel could not ascend to the Promise Land because of fear. The spirit of fear is a major hindrance to fulfilling God's destiny for us.

Hindrances can be a person or thing that makes a situation difficult or a barrier that gets in the way of progress. These can be supernatural, as the Apostle Paul experienced during his ministry.

We have to start taking inventory of our relationships. Even past relationships can result in present-day temptations. We must fully leave the past behind.

Today we will continue to talk about soul ties, what they are, and how the knitting together of two people in a relationship can either motivate us to obey God or disobey him.

Our blessings come through obedience to the Word of God. We must avoid living by our emotions or the opinions of others but if we do, we can face serious negative outcomes.

Relationships are very influential in our lives. We must base our relationships on the Word of God to build healthy soul ties and avoid those that will hinder our purpose.

People who attach receiving money with giving out miracles are on shaky ground. We should never use the power of the Holy Spirit as a means to benefit monetarily. Gehazi, Elisha’s servant, thought he could get wealthy as a byproduct of God using his master to operate in the supernatural.

The church teaches a gospel predominantly about the Father and the Son but there are fewer messages about the Holy Spirit. However, Jesus placed much importance on the Holy Spirit as a catalyst for helping understand God’s destiny for our lives.
