In (2 Corinthians 10: 2-5) in the Passion.
Listen to how Paul wrote it.
"Now, I plead with you that when I come, don't force me
to take a hard line with you."
The spirit of slap over there, he said, "Which I'm willing
to do by daring to confront those who mistakenly believe
that we are living by the standards of the world,
not by the spirit's."
Wisdom and power, all right?
"For, although we live in a natural realm,
we don't wage a military campaign employing human weapons,
using manipulation to achieve our aim.
Instead, our spiritual weapons are energized
with divine power to effectively
dismantle the defenses behind which people hide.
We can demolish," listen, "every deceptive fantasy
that opposes God
and break through every arrogant attitude
that is raised up in defiance of the true knowledge of God.
We capture, like prisoners of war, every thought
and insist that it bow in obedience to the anointed ones.
Since we are armed with such a dynamic weaponry,
we stand ready to punish any trace of rebellion as soon
as you choose to completely obey him."
All right? So, we're not to fear him.
Wesley also wrote this, "Don't tremble before Satan.
Challenge his authority."
Leah, you challenge his authority in that dream.
"Don't cower when he roars like a lion."
Remember the Bible says he is as a roaring lion.
He's not a lion.
"Take authority in Jesus' name
and the old lion will slink away
with its tails between his legs."
So we have to commit, we have to equip ourselves, all right?
And so the enemy's objective always is to pervert justice,
overthrow government.
You know, look at the craziness that's in the world,
the woke mentality
and the, you know, just establishing,
look at the anti-Semitic spirit that's out there.
Look at all the fighting and the violence,
the immoral leaders, right?
We have that authority to pray and God has a plan.
Listen, we're not defeated.
And so, but if you look at it from that perspective,
from a worldly perspective, like you know,
we're up a creek without a paddle, you know,
that's not where we're at.
The enemy is defeated by our prayer.
Now, what can hinder us?
Who can abide now in Psalm 15, is that not working up there?
(Psalm 15: 1-4)  in the New King James version.
All right, Lord, we just thank you
that the word's still coming forth, right?
"Lord, who may abide in your tabernacle,
who might dwell in your holy hill, he who walks uprightly
and works righteousness and speak."
This is the key piece that I want.
"And speaks the truth in his heart.
Speaks the truth, is honest," stop blaming everybody
and your mother for your issues.
"Speaks the truth in your heart,
who does not backbite with his tongue,
nor does evil to his neighbor,
nor does he take up a reproach against his friend."
We have got to be honest.
We have got to say, "Lord, here's my issue.
Lord, show me my heart, I can't..."
Listen, people are going to offend you.
People are going to hurt your heart, it's just life.
And you say, "Oh, but it's in the church."
It's in any place that you're at.
If you're around human beings,
you're going to get aggravated with people, right?
So whether you're in the workplace,
whether you're in the church, you know,
and I get it, your expectation is,
Well, we're in a church, we should know better.
We all should know better but why do we then
want to blame someone else when we don't
look at our own stuff?
You know, we can point our finger,
but we got three of our own pointing back at us.
You want mercy, but you don't show mercy,
you have bitterness in your heart,
but,  that's okay, but if someone's bitter towards you,
you're all bent out of shape.
See, we have to look at what's going on in our heart.
Now, there are times, you know, that we have to confront.
That doesn't mean you're combative,
it just means speak the truth in your heart,
Lisa's going to teach on that, and feedback is your friend.
I used to hate that.
Like, oh, I'm afraid to hear what they had to say.
But feedback is our friend, right?
But we have to be and say, "Lord,
I don't want my prayer life hindered.
I have to choose to forgive people, I have to choose."
Listen, offense is the major, major area.
I was just listening,
did anybody ever hear of a girl, she's Colombian, I think.
Her name is Julia Lopez?
Now you can check her out online.
She was in the occult and her family was in Santeria.
And she said, "One of the main ways the enemy
keeps you in bondage,
hinders your finances,
hinders your relationship,
