If we are to ready ourselves for God to move in a way like never before, we have to be careful that we don’t open any new doors to the enemy. So how do we do that? We must consecrate ourselves before the Lord. But what does that look like? How do we set Biblical boundaries? What does this priestly mandate even have to do with us? And what does sacrifice look like when we choose the “set apart” life?

As long as we live on this earth, we must recognize that we have an enemy — and he will do everything possible to keep you away from God, and the call of God on your life. So, if you find yourself in a season of spiritual warfare — what must you do? How do you stay strong amidst the attacks? How do we recognize the devices and strategies that the enemy uses? And how can we better prepare for attacks in the future?

Unforgiveness is the #1 open door to the enemy — which means it’s also the #1 tactic in the enemy’s playbook. He loves it when we hold onto unforgiveness, and hates it when we forgive. So what are the dangers of unforgiveness? What are the benefits of forgiving? Are there levels to forgiveness? And ultimately, what does it look like to truly forgive?

When we get the full understanding of everything we have access to through Christ, it becomes increasingly obvious that the idea of “lacking” ANYTHING is a lie from the enemy. But how do we recognize it when the enemy tries to feed it to us? What does it take to fully realize all that we have access to? And what are some practical ways that we can grow in the knowledge of God?

The #1 thing which makes the Christian life so difficult is not Satan, it is actually any door in a Christian’s life which is open to Satan. Open doors can lead to strongholds, and strongholds can lead to bondages. But how do we know we have open doors? What is a stronghold? How are bondages built? And how do we tear down a stronghold?

In today's world, it's almost impossible to avoid politics, but as a Christian, how should we navigate the political landscape? How do we embrace biblical principals as we cast our votes? What does the Bible say about politics? And how do we tackle the most polarizing issues like Jesus?

God does not always ask for the most expensive thing; He frequently asks for the most excruciating thing — and as followers of Christ, He calls for us to bear our cross daily. While that may look different for each one of us, one thing is for certain: it will cost you. So how do you prepare for it? What if it’s a direction you don’t want to take? What if it’s a decision you don’t want to make? And what does it look like to die daily?

Remembrance of the past is key to preparing you for the promise to come. But how do we remember? What should we remember? And what transformation can happen when choose to remember?

Scripture makes it clear — God wants to be known for generosity. And if that’s HIS heart, why should it not be ours as well? What would it look like as believers, if we became famous for generosity? How do we practically care for those in need? And how can we reflect the heart of the Father in our everyday lives?

God doesn’t want to be first, He IS first. The question is, do we make Him that in our lives? When it comes to tithing, the Bible is clear. So what is the tithe? Why do we tithe? And how does the way we see it change the way we see everything else?
