Permission to Break the Agreement

Permission to Break the Agreement27 jul38 min

<p>Welcome back to <em>The Power of Permission.</em></p><p>Today we’re talking about a kind of agreement that many of us don’t even realize we’ve made.</p><p>Not a contract we signed.</p><p>Not a promise we spoke out loud.</p><p>But an agreement we quietly accepted somewhere along the way.</p><p>Maybe it sounds like this:</p><p><em>“I’m not enough.”</em></p><p><em>“I have to earn love.”</em></p><p><em>“If I disappoint people, they’ll leave.”</em></p><p><em>“I have to be perfect.”</em></p><p><em>“I’ll never change.”</em></p><p><em>“This is just who I am.”</em></p><p>The problem is, what we repeatedly believe eventually begins to shape how we live.

He called Abram by a new name, reminded Gideon he was a mighty warrior while he was still hiding, restored Peter after failure, and declared that in Christ we are a new creation.</p><p>God has always been in the business of breaking false agreements.</p><p>Today we’ll explore the lies we unknowingly partner with, how those agreements influence our lives, and what it looks like to replace them with the truth of God’s Word.</p><p>Because freedom doesn’t begin when your circumstances change.</p><p>Freedom begins when you stop agreeing with what God never said about you.</p><p>If you’ve been carrying labels that don’t belong to you, believing lies that have kept you stuck, or living from an identity rooted more in your wounds than in God’s promises, this episode is for you.</p><p>It’s time to break the agreement. </p><p>Pull up a chair and let’s begin.</p><p><br><a href="" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">Christian Dior Dior Addict Lip Glow Oil - 012 Rosewood Women 0.2 oz https://a.co/d/01kfj957</a></p><p><a href="Watch Wild at Heart Podcast" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">Watch Wild at Heart Podcast</a></p>
