We want a savior – but do we really want a king? Let Earth receive her KING!
Prepare a Place John 14:1-3
Only one place can hold all of God – the heart of the believer. Is there room in your heart for Him? Jesus will not force His way in; He stands at the door and knocks.
* Door #1 Joshua 1:8-9
FEAR – holds you back! Open the door on all your fears and let Jesus take them. God is with you always, everywhere!
* Door #2 Col 3:13
UNFORGIVENESS – Jesus saw everything that happened, so why hold onto it? He understands and will walk with you to help you let go. When you do let go, He will leave peace and joy in place of the unforgiveness.
* Door #3 Rom 10:11-13
SHAME – keeps us apart, prevents us from getting close to others, and locks us in addiction. It locks us away as prisoners. You don’t need to hold onto shame – Jesus took it for you!
