EPISODE 03

WHAT MAKES YOU WEAK

In this episode, Pastor Jordan Boyce shares what causes men to be weak and how they can overcome weakness and be strong and effective in society.

SUBSCRIBE & LISTEN:

WHAT YOU’LL LEARN:

  • The consequences of “hiding” things from God.
  • How to identify areas of your life where you’re trending towards defeat.
  • What to do once you spotlight secret sins.

KEY TAKEAWAYS:

0:53 – 🔑 WHY SOME MEN ARE WEAK

  • “You cannot stand against your enemies until you remove them.”
  • God’s people can become weak and ineffective because what they keep hidden keeps them weak.
  • Hidden sin in the camp opens the door to defeat in battle. As long as men are gripped by hidden sin, they will be ineffective on the battlefield.

6:12 – 🔑 HOW TO COMBAT SECRET SINS

  • When we begin to confess, confront and contend with our secret sins, we get our strength back.
  • The process of sin: You See » You Covet » You Act 
  • Sin can be keeping for ourselves what belongs to God.
  • What areas of your life are you saving for yourself and holding back from God?
  • What remains uncommitted to God often is an open door for the enemy.

12:50 – 🔑 GOD’S GOAL IS TO GET ALL OF YOU

  • God wants all of you committed to Him.
  • God is Good — He comes to you so that you would not be condemned but so that you would confess, to get freedom, so that you can become a conqueror again.
  • Make no space for the devil in your camp. If the enemy can get a foothold in your life, he can build a stronghold in your life. Don’t make a hidden place for your sin.
  • What’s hidden is the very thing that is holding you back from who God’s called you to be — and to be the strong man in your home.
  • Everything in the dark will eventually come into the light.
  • What you don’t contend with now will eventually conquer you later.

19:24 – 🔑 DON’T GET CAUGHT, CONFESS.

  • When you confess, you get right with God and take back the power from the enemy.
  • Confess to someone that’s an authority in your life and partner with them in prayer.
  • Confession breaks the control of shame and sickness over your life.
  • Sin and secrecy is the thing that makes us weak, but when we commit it to Christ, we get to live in freedom.
  • Your sin does not just affect you; it always attacks the next generation.
