Are you waiting on God? After God Calls you, you have the responsibility to do your part in the preparation process.

The enemy will tell us a lie that seems to be supported by  our emotions and/or experiences. Beware of this trap.

The enemy is a master of spinning us around through religious antics. As long as he can get us to continue doing religious things he can distract us from standing on the word. Learn how to stand and why we have the authority to stand.

The enemy will try to bully you. However, God has given you power over the enemy. In this sermon learn how to overcome the enemy with boldness.

And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not. The enemy is always trying to distract, temp and trap you. GOD has a reward for you if you follow his plan. You will have a lifetime of blessings if you obey him. Remember these three things: 1. Never use your spiritual gifts for personal gain. 2. You don't have to prove yourself to the enemy. 3. Don't accept the cheap substitutes of the enemy. The enemy wants you to have fun now and an eternity of suffering, GOD's system may have you suffer for a little while, but if you stay on GOD's side you will reap and eternity of blessings. 

It is important to have fellowship with God. When you are in fellowship with Him, you will see your covenant from His perspective. You can lean on your covenant in faith and confidence knowing that God has already provided the solution.

The Lord will give you an assignment. When you obey him and follow his plan, HE will take you to a place where you can bless others. Can you believe GOD even when it's uncomfortable? Can you be like the widow woman with the cruze of oil and Elijah? Would you have enough faith to follow instructions and believe even though you can't see how it's going to work out in the natural? You must believe that GOD's plan is best for you and if you obey HE will bless the work of your hands.

When you are discouraged and feel like there is no hope. God wants us to remember the good things that God has done for us. It will encourage and strengthen our hearts.

The enemy will plant fear in our lives and entice us to meditate on the fear. Fear must be dealt with by the power of God. If not, the enemy will use the fear planted in our lives to keep us from receiving the things that God has for us.
