The Biggest Mistake In Spiritual Warfare: Trying To Defend You

One of the hardest things I've had to learn is that a victory doesn't automatically mean I'm doing everything right.

Sometimes we can look at the things God has allowed us to accomplish and assume that because we're winning in one area, everything in our lives must be in order.

I don't believe that's how it works.

I have to continually come back to a posture of humility and submission before God.

I'm still a broken vessel. I still have blind spots. I still have things in my heart that need to be surrendered.

That's why consecration is so important.

When God gives me new territory, I don't want to take that territory and put myself on the throne. I want to establish Him there.

Because anything in my life that isn't submitted to the government of the Kingdom of Heaven can eventually become a liability.

And then there is the battle that happens when someone attacks my identity.

They say something about me.

They misunderstand me.

They treat me unjustly.
