The counterfeit stronghold has the power to destroy a believer’s walk through deception. Paul makes it clear that we must wage a spiritual war against this fortress, not a physical one.
For a time is coming when people will no longer listen to sound and wholesome teaching. They will follow their own desires and will look for teachers who will tell them whatever their itching ears want to hear. They will reject the truth and chase after myths. 2 Timothy 4:3-4
Centuries ago, when one kingdom wanted to overthrow another kingdom, the armies would weaken the walls of the stronghold and then advance to take the city. Today dear friend, the Kingdom of Heaven has come to take down the kingdom of darkness in our mind! It begins by entering into His stronghold and allowing Him to tear down the emotional and mental walls we’ve built around us.
The counterfeit stronghold has one single purpose: to prevent those of us who are free in Christ from living out our freedom! Every Believer was liberated from captivity at the cross, but we don’t always know how to live in the freedom we’ve been given. Through this book, you will learn to fight your enemy as the Israelites learned to fight theirs – through the power of God.
At 23 years old I rededicated my life to the Lord, but then what? I had one foot in my old life and one foot in my new one. I still possessed all the mess from the past, and I continued to feel alone inside. Nothing much had changed except one thing – I wanted to be different. I just didn’t know how to do it. Through the faithfulness of God, He brought amazing women into my life and they taught, mentored, prayed, and challenged me. I would not be where I am today if it were not for those faith-filled woman. {You all know who you are} 🙂
God has chosen to partner through people to do His will, and we need each other to accomplish it. We ARE our sister’s keeper! The Stronghold Project will cultivate the same safe community I had and grew in. Through the online and offline small group communities you will connect and grow, too!
My passion is to see every woman living free from their past, in an intimate relationship with God, and connected to a solid group of faith-filled women sharing and growing together! I hope you will join me!
We must remain connected if we are going to stay effective!
I think it is evident right now that people do as they please and not according to the Law because they feel like It’s holding them back. Sad really. I guess that’s where most chaos come from.
I too hope that someday more people and not just women would have intimate relationship with God. That way, we’ll have a stronger hold of the Truth. 🙂
Great post, Beth! I agree with you completely and how important it is to have people be there for you and vice versa, as you journey on your path to getting to know the Lord. Blessings! #bloggercaregroup
