Every day I am allowing Christ to overcome my pride, self-importance and self-reliance. (2 Cor. 10:5. “Take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ.”) Allowing Christ’s will to overcome my will. This Message was given by Pastor Clark Cothern on Feb 2nd 2020 @ Living Water Community Church Message Notes: Feb. 2, 2020 Every day I am allowing Christ to overcome my pride, self-importance and self-reliance. (2 Cor. 10:5. “Take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ.”) Bottom line: Every day I am allowing Christ’s will to overcome my will. Think for a minute about how many dangerous thoughts can bombard your mind in just one hour. 2 Corinthians 10:3-5 This battle takes place in the mind. What is a “stronghold?” We can demolish those strongholds and Paul the Apostle tells us how. “We take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ.” (2 Cor. 10:5) Here’s the big question: How? Three practical principles for taking down strongholds: 1. You can’t __________ everything you ____________. (see Jeremiah 17:9) 2. You need to _________ your mind from _______________. (see Proverbs 15:14) Just because you can do a thing doesn’t mean you ___________ do a thing. Sometimes the reason we _______ like garbage is because we’re _____________ on garbage. Philippians 4:6-7: Continual ____________________ prayer. 3. Share your ____________ with other __________________. (And) “I pray that the fellowship of your faith may become effective through the knowledge of every good thing which is in you for Christ's sake.” (Philemon 1:6, NASB)
