Fight for Freedom

Because Jesus fought FOR victory, we now fight FROM victory. Be an Esther in this generation. In this message, Zack shares an encouraging word but also practical keys on winning spiritual battles. Notes: Esther 4:14 Recognize You Have an Enemy Expose the enemy Mordecai heard about Haman’s plans A thief is only as good as his ability to not get caught We wont fight for what we don’t know is ours as believers John 10:1 Thief works best in the dark where he can’t be seen Devil is sneaky. Will try to get in and out without being seen We don’t know our portion so we don’t know what’s missing Shine a light to the dark areas of your life. The biggest deception today is bound people think that they’re free. Run to God Fight the Spiritual Battle before the Physical Battle Esther gathered whole nation for prayer and fast she crippled humans in the spiritual realm behind the natural reality, there is a spiritual reality at work first, you have to bind the strong man Matthew 12:29 When people comes out of prayer, they are: Bold Like a sauna, come out steaming Has God’s favor You can die if you go to the kings courts uninvited The one who defeated death hell and the grave lives inside you. Clean life doesn’t mean freedom. Consumed life means freedom. Be consumed with God. Practical God’s Word Can be a book on a stand or a weapon in your hand Prayer life instead of prayer line Fasting Community Join a Life Group Surround yourself with people that are close to God. People that pray and fast People that can fight with you There needs to be a relationship - you can’t destroy a full time devil with a part time commitment to God Esther 4:14 Something will perish. Either your life or the devil. You will either live in battle or in bondage. David was called for battle - but he stayed and ended up in bondage. Like Esther, if you don’t go battle, you will be in bondage. If you don’t fight the big battles God called you to fight you will lose the small battles God never intended you to fight. Your silence will keep you from your deliverance Devil can’t take your ability to pray he can’t stop God from answering your prayers but will try to stop you from praying your prayers Man with the legion of demons He was able to do only 2 things A. Run to God B. Open his mouth And he became free The parts of your life devil doesn’t control are stronger and greater than what he does control.
