​Matthew 11:28–30

Meekness is not weakness, it is harnessed power, controlled by purpose.

​2 Corinthians 12:9, 2 Corinthians 10:3, 2 Corinthians 10:4, 2 Corinthians 10:5

The theater of war is in our mind.

(2 Corinthians 10:8)

Your relationship (yoke) in Christ gives you authority to build up not tear down.

Theater of War In Our Mind

1. Lack of Integrity: Talk that doesn’t match our walk. (2 Corinthians 10:11)
2. Comparison trap: Comparing your purpose to others. (2 Corinthians 10:12)
3. Operating outside of the purpose or sphere of influence God has assigned you. (2 Corinthians 10:13)

Meekness is not weakness, it is harnessed power, controlled by purpose.

(2 Corinthians 10:17)
