2 Corinthians 10:3-5; Deuteronomy 12:1-3

– We all have strongholds in our life, they’re called ‘issues.”

– Strongholds, places that are fortified to protect it against attack.

– A place where a particular cause on belief is staunchly defended.

– A stronghold is a mindset, a way of thinking that hinders our growth and development.

– The result of lies and accusations planted in our mind by the enemy.

– He then erects walls around the lies, to keep out the Truth of God’s Word and Who God is.

– We cannot bring human weapons to a spiritual fight.

– The best opinion is inferior to Truth.

– We have to capture those thoughts and bring them under subjection to the Word of God.

– Love is our most powerful weapon. Faith works by love.

– Joy is a weapon also. The joy of the Lord is our strength.

– God can remove the strongholds, but He wants us to do the work using the weapons He has given us.

– Sometimes we have to trace the origin of the issues in his life.

– Anything that competes with God and the supremacy of God is a stronghold.
