EARLY IN CHRISTIAN WALK

THERE’S A FINE PRINT IN THE FAITH WALK

WHAT THEY TELL YOU:

• READ YOUR BIBLE
• GET IN A GROUP
• GO TO CHURCH
• STOP DOING ALL THE OLD STUFF
• YOU’RE A NEW CREATION BUT NEVER DEFINE THAT
• NO EXPECTATIONS OR CAUTION

NOBODY EXPLAINS:

• WARFARE
• YOU’RE NOW A THREAT
• IT ONLY GETS HARDER
• YOU WILL HAVE TENSION IN HEART AND MIND
• DEVELOP NEW LENS
• THINGS TASTE DIFFERENT
• OUT OF SPIRITUAL COMA
• SPIRITUAL ATROPHY 

WHAT I WISH THEY WOULD HAVE TOLD ME:

• YOUR WIFE ISN’T YOUR COMPETITION 
• YOUR MARRIAGE IS MORE THAN OBLIGATORY 
• DEVIL WANTS TO DEVOUR YOUR FAMILY AND HAVE YOUR HEADS AS TROPHIES
• YOU WON’T ‘FEEL’ SAVED
• LIES GET LOUDER
• SHAME & GUILT WILL HAUNT YOU:  NOT OF GOD
• REQUIREMENTS ARE DIFFERENT FOR MEN
• YOU OWN EVERYTHING

• AS THE MAN:  MAY NOT CAUSE IT BUT YOU OWN THE SOLUTION

• SIN DOESN’T GO AWAY
• SPIRITUAL SENSES BECOME SHARPER

• HOLY SPIRIT CONVICTION 
• DESIRE FOR OBEDIENCE 
• UNDERSTAND REPENTANCE 
• DISGUSTED BY SIN
• SENSES HEIGHTENED FOR PRESENCE OF DEMONIC OR EVIL
