INTRODUCTION
​
Do you ever find yourself moving in circles, but seem to be getting nowhere meaningful no matter what material or notoriety you accumulate? Have you ever thought that maybe, JUST MAYBE, you can begin to break this cycle with God’s help? Well, here is a concept you should try. Try becoming a part of THE RESISTANCE. You CAN change your life right now. It takes a single thought, a single step in the right direction, a made up mind.
​
Change has nothing to do with your current situation. It begins in your mind and becomes real when you apply it one small decision at a time. You see, when you begin your new journey with Christ, becoming part of THE RESISTANCE can be a total life changing experience! THE RESISTANCE includes an entire army of believers around the world who RESIST the enemy of our soul.
​
This 4 part series includes the basics on how to unravel those things that prevent you from reaching your full potential.
RELEASING BAD HABITS
​
I John 2:16 KJV reads
“For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world.”
Part 1 is about RELEASING BAD HABITS
FOCUS:
Doing what we want to do and not what God wants, Lust of the Flesh
​
It is so easy to get caught up with what is going on around us. There is such a strong focus on self and it has become magnified by the use of technology and social media. It is absolutely necessary to set our priorities in order, ahead of SELF. There is a never ending list of things we think we want to do. It is important to begin to pray each day for direction and that God guide you in the way you should go. Though you do not have the answers right now, it will come into focus in time.
You can also begin to change your thinking with the help of God.
That moment the YOU want to cuss someone out, hold your tongue and replace that habit.
​
That moment YOU want to take revenge, ask God to help you do nothing. Show God that you trust HIM to take care of the situation and work it out in time.
​
That moment YOU want to go to the party, instead, ask God to fill your time with learning and growth.
​
That moment YOU want to interact with unsuitable material, ask God to help you change your choices.
​
​
Other bad habits to release:
​
Bad choices for your Health
Sexual immorality
Procrastination
Gratifying your body's desires at the cost of morality
​
​
Let us Seek GOD and HIS WILL, before prioritizing ourselves. It is absolutely wonderful to have goals and aspirations. Just make sure that God is guiding your journey! Practicing resistance and taking each moment one decision at a time​ will yield results that can CHANGE YOUR LIFE! Alright, you tried it YOUR way, now try it God's Way!
