Removing the Obstacles to True Devotion

In this urgent message, Dr. Michael Youssef exposes the subtle barriers that cool a believer’s love for Christ. Drawing from the inerrant Word of God, he identifies three dangers that hinder deep intimacy with Jesus: refusing godly correction, resisting Spirit‑led change, and mistaking this temporary world for our eternal home. Dr. Youssef reminds us that genuine repentance and humble self‑examination are essential if we are to love the Lord Jesus—fully God and our only Savior—with an undivided heart. As the culture grows colder and distractions multiply, this episode calls every believer to intercede, to surrender pride, and to return to the passionate, transforming love that Christ alone deserves.  If today’s teaching stirred a question, burden, or need for prayer, you don’t have to walk through it alone.  🙏 Pastoral Care & Prayer Teams Our trained prayer partners and pastoral care team are available to pray with you and offer Biblical support. https://ltw.org/care 💬 Receive personal answers to your faith questions—anytime, day or night—at: https://myfaithassistant.com If you’ve been blessed by this podcast, please consider a tax-deductible donation to help extend this ministry—so another person can be encouraged, prayed for, and pointed to Christ. ❤️ Support Leading The Way: https://www.ltw.org/donate
