Occupy Freedom

Your vulnerability makes you human, and your identity make you royalty, you cannot be fully you, without both.

Being vulnerable is God-given and it's what makes us human. When you remove the possibility of weakness and failure, you de-humanize yourself and others. The older we get, the more convinced we become that it is in fact our weaknesses, failures and imperfections that bind us in unity as humans and believers, not our successes or our strengths. Why do you think the enemy has worked so hard to dismantle vulnerability? Because it ultimately dismantles the intimacy and the power of the brotherhood, choking our unity and our ability to govern the earth from a Kingdom perspective.

Have you ever looked back at some thing in your life that you’ve done or said and wish you could hit “delete”?? 

It all started back in the garden when shame and religion entered the picture after the first regret was made. We will all experience these "garden moments" in life, when we must choose between the two trees; life and death. It's in those moments that God desires to show us how to live in the standard of grace and holiness and embrace our vulnerability.  

On this episode, we're going to discuss garden moments, how God asks good questions to draw us out and how we can find a new covering under grace... God may not be in the deletion business, but He is in the restoration business!

Have you ever had a secret that cast a dark shadow over your life? The first step to healing is being vulnerable with your struggle, and on this episode of the Occupy Freedom podcast, Brooke Peterson is sharing her journey to occupying freedom from the struggle of disordered eating and going on to discover her purpose as a woman, a leader and a daughter of the King.

One of the things that we value here on the Occupy Freedom podcast, is the testimony. We want to honor the testimonies of real people who have gone through real processes and had real encounters with Jesus, because as the scriptures say, we overcome by the blood of the Lamb and the word of our testimony. Let's talk about it!!

On this episode of the Occupy Freedom podcast we are continuing the discussion on the concept of "Form Follows Function", by diving into the foundation of our function.

Understanding your function answers the question, "Why am I here?" and it creates focus amidst the chaos and noise of the world. In order to increase in our function we have to understand the foundation of that function. We've broken the foundation of function down into three key parts: calling, purpose and assignments. Your calling is universal, your purpose is individual, and your assignments are seasonal.... let's talk about it!

Jesus came to His own as a servant, to deliver them from the oppression of sin, to heal their identity and reconcile them back to the Father, but it was His own who rejected Him. His own rejected Him because they weren’t looking for a servant, they were waiting for an earthly king; a military-minded ruler who would overthrow the Roman government and end their physical oppression. No matter the number of miracles, signs and wonders He performed to prove His identity, the people could not receive from Him, because their preconceived ideals blinded their eyes and deafened their ears. They were so focused on the form in which Christ came that they completely missed the freedom in His function! How many times do we miss what God is doing because we are so focused on what it's supposed to look like? On today's episode we are diving into the concept of "Form Follows Function" and talking about what it looks like to increase in the function you have so that no matter what the form looks like, you can thrive in life! Let's talk about it!

“But when the fullness of time came, God sent forth His Son, born of a woman, born under the Law, so that He might redeem those who were under the Law, that we might receive the adoption as sons. Because you are sons, God has sent forth the Spirit of His Son into our hearts, crying, Abba! Father! Therefore, you are no longer a slave, but a son; and if a son, then an heir through God.” – Galatians 4:4-7 (NASB)

What is the Spirit of Sonship and how does it affect the way we live as believers? 

When we say YES to Jesus and God seals us with the Spirit of Sonship, He sets in motion a life completely redeemed and continually transformed over time. But He doesn’t stop there, He begins to use our story, our testimony and our purpose to impact the lives of those in need. Your process is not just about you, it’s about those who are praying for what you carry. Let's talk about it!!

You were created as a 3-part being in the image of God the Father, Son and Holy Spirit - You are a spirit, you have a soul and you live in a body. 

To understand you are a 3-part being is crucial in understanding your spiritual DNA, and a vital key to occupying freedom through deliverance and healing. 

We are discussing the war of our inner roommates - soul and spirit - and how to discern between the two. Picture the soul and spirit as roommates who are now travel companions; they’re both in the car but only one can drive. Paul urges us in Romans 8 to be led by the Spirit, not the flesh and in fact if you are a son or daughter of God then you must be led by the Spirit, because you are one with Christ... Let's talk about it!

"Who am I?" This is the most important question you will ever ask yourself and have to give answer to. Often times in our culture we subconsciously take cues from magazines, movies, social media and other outside influences to determine who we are and where we're going, when in reality God has hidden our identity in the nature of who He is. Through the fall of the first Adam, our core identity was fractured and our relationship with the Father severed...but wait, there's more! Through the life, death and resurrection of the Last Adam, Jesus Christ, we find our identity restored to it's original design and discover a life of thriving beyond the circumstances of this world. Let's talk about it!

Casualties of war cannot only be counted among the physically dead and wounded, but among those living silently in mental, emotional, and spiritual torment.

Our five physical senses seem most real to us as we wander this world in search of significance, we spend much of our time measuring all things by what we can see, taste, smell, feel and hear, but then God calls us out of the flesh and into the spirit; to walk by the spirit, to live by the spirit, and experience by the spirit. It is then that we must discover an eternal reality; a new war. We quickly find the futility of fighting the spiritual battle with a carnal weapon. A new war requires new weapons.

How many times have you been around that mountain? You know the one – mental/emotional bondage, various addictions, greed, hopelessness, self-hate, distraction, doubt, etc. You step into freedom for a short time only to find yourself eventually returning to the mountain again.

The Apostle Peter reminds us that God has called us OUT of darkness and IN to His glorious light, but sometimes we only find our way halfway through the process and get stuck in the middle ground.

On today’s episode of Occupy Freedom we’re going to talk about the middle ground – what it is, why it’s the most dangerous space for the believer to get stuck in, and what it means to occupy the position of freedom, so that you don’t become meat in the middle. Let's talk about it!
