Action Jackson, I personalized the Word here as I am "realizing" there are certain keys to walking with God and overcoming the enemy. I made it somewhat Generic to relate to more of the un churched people. As I get more and more into it the only True God that can change lives is Jesus. Here is how I refer to God:

God - Father
Jesus - Son
Holy Spirit - Spirit

This is #4a and tomorrow is 4b in the series.

Q180 DENIAL

What does this mean to me?
What does the World say?
What does The Lord say?

Jesus said, "whoever wants to be with me and follow Me must Deny themselves and take up their cross and follow me."
Matthew 16:24

My first step to Freedom is Self Denial. I must realize that Self Denial each day gives me the confidence and strength that I need to face another.

Self Denial is one of my building blocks for success.

Each Victory with Self Denial strengthens my Character to walk away from the next temptation that I will encounter.

Each set back will build my willpower for the next challenge.

Each setback will also remind me to be tolerant and forgiving to others that also have Character Challenges.

With each Set-Back I must realize that it is a
Set-Up for a future Victory.

I must receive the Son's love and Grace knowing the Son identifies with me and my Shortcomings that were passed down from the Garden through my DNA.

I must continue to remember that the Father gave His Son to die for my character flaws and shortcomings. The Son proved He was All Powerful by raising Himself from Death after three days.

Because of this the Son was able to send a personal Holy Spirit called, "The Helper" to work on me, in me and through me giving me strength each day.

I must realize that this incredible process begins when I Deny myself daily.

"This Attitude of Denying myself is another key to my success."

You're Beautiful
