Jesus leaving the 99 for 1 sounds crazy, until you're that 1. Yes, something has to die, but it's not you. The enemy wants you to believe the only way out is to take your life, but that's a lie! We have hope for you in this message.

Have you ever made the mistake of thinking something, somewhere or someone was safe just to find out they sabotaged your focus, peace and direction? It's critical we identify the differences in safe spaces and sabotages.

Can you discern when God has called you to be number two? Until we realize that our role is for God's glory and not our own, we'll never be able to find unspeakable joy in the reality that we must decrease, so that God increases.

We have to get to a place to where we stop listening to people's advice who don't have to deal with the outcome if we follow it. We must be cautious about who has access to your ear!

Can you identify when a failure isn't a part of the process, but it's a part of protection? This doesn't mean we need to work harder; nor is it adversity, it's clarity! This is God being clear about what is and isn't in His will for your life.

If you don't disciple your imagination, it will begin to filter everything through fear, threats and worst-case scenarios. This is no way for a Christ follower to live and thrive. We must get our anxiety under control so that it stops dictating our lives!

So many of us are engaged in historically inherited wars and we don't even know it! Generational cycles gain momentum by stories being left untold and scars that were covered by statements such as, "what goes on in this house stays in this house."

When we're emotionally exhausted, we tend to revert back to the version of ourselves from before Jesus called us. It's time we develop a pain plan, because your pain process sets protocols for those who are coming behind you.

In order to succeed in life, we must be able to identify which type of valley we are in. The anointing is forged in the valley!

Could it be possible that our lack of properly placing people is the role that we're playing in our own suffering?

There's some pain we don't have to experience if we would just take the wisdom!

Have you ever lost something before, only to realize it's right there in your face? Inattentional blindness is whenever you become so focused on one thing, that you miss the details right in front of you. This is one of the cancers responsible for relational breakdown.

The fastest way to waste your life is to live thinking you have more life left. You get one life and to waste time is to waste life!

It's critical that we remain healed, because brokenness blurs your vision and causes you to not be able to discern the true nature of people. How many times have we seen people in the improper light due to the fact that we got healed, but never stayed healed?

Some of us are fueled by feuds - we love to fight! It's possible that our harvest is being strangled by our obsession to fight. Sometimes fighting is necessary, but do we have the maturity to know when, where, how or even what to fight? Do we have the discernment to know that we shouldn't be fighting for free?
