If we are going to join in the fight there will always be undercurrent heart issues that we need to deal with to move forward. The Father Factor/Fracture is one of those issues. This is the first of two messages on this topic.

After salvation and surrender comes learning how to submit... We will be able to get into the fight if we learn how to have an interactive relationship with God, submit to God, and serve God. All these things Joshua learned from Moses. We need to follow a "Moses" in our life and become a faithful disciple.

After salvation comes surrender... we need to learn that God is not only willing to war for our soul but he will guide, provide, and dwell with us. The Lord truly is everything we need in this world.

God went to great lengths to war for your soul... and the events of the Exodus out of Egypt picture this perfectly.

In this final lesson of the series we talk at length about how to live out the Biblical guidelines for dating and relationships. It is not going to be easy, but if we are going to please the Lord in every area of our lives we must follow these basic things.

The first goal of the devil is to remove the authority of the Bible from our lives. The second goal is to make us question God and our relationship with him. His third goal is to make us question and doubt the will of God for our lives, and thankfully Jesus shows us exactly what we must do to fight this battle properly.

First is the spiritual foundation, then emotional, and now we talk about the physical... How can we be prepared in our hearts and minds to date God's way and have a proper perspective physically? God cares deeply about purity, and we should as well.

Job's life is on display as Satan's words are recorded the second time in the Bible. The enemy desires for us to question and doubt our relationship with God in order to defeat us and steal glory from the Lord. Take heed!

After working through how to be spiritually ready for dating God's way, now we need to dive into the emotional side. How can you prepare yourself to date emotionally?

The first time we see Satan show up and utter words his goal is to cause confusion and make us question and contradict the word of God in our personal lives. We need to beware! His tactics haven't changed a lot, but he is incredibly deceptive...
