Patient through the Pressure

Success in life is often most determined by winning the battle within. It’s the internal war not the external battles that most shape our lives. We are far too often victims of our own negative emotions. How the year ahead will shape out is much more about us than them. It’s much more about what’s happening in us than around us.

King Saul is the perfect example of self-destruction. He had been chosen by God to be king over Israel, yet early on in his reign he developed attitudes and made decisions that would eventually cut his reign as king short. Like, Saul, we are often our own worst enemy. We just can’t get out of our own way. We miss out on the fullness of God because of our own unwillingness to recognize our shortcomings. In this series, we will look at 5 attitudes/actions that ended Saul and learn how we can avoid those in our own lives.

Impatience will often cause us to do the right things at the wrong times. We let circumstances drive our decisions instead of obedience to God. We act by what we see instead of what God has said. How do we avoid that? Through clarity and courage. We have to learn to wait. Join us for Part 1 of “Win Within” where we learn how to stay patient through the pressure.
