W3 Obstacles to Breaking Free
What are the obstacles that “hinder the effective and spirit filled life that God has planned for you”(Beth Moore)? Unbelief? Prayerlessness? Pride? Idolatry? Legalism?
If you are taking Breaking Free with us, these are the questions we encounter this week in our homework. God is trying to reveal to you the areas in your life that keep you disconnected from Him. He is trying to give you insight so that in the coming weeks, you can see what you need to do to remain close or become closer to Him.
I personally have been convicted by God to notice that I struggle most with Pride at this time in my life. He knows that even though I say to Him and others that He deserves the glory and praise, inside I feel good when people praise me. This is hard to admit (yes, there is Pride showing its head again 
), but God knows that there is freedom in sharing the Truth. My truth + God’s Truth = FREEDOM…. Isn’t this right, girls?
For some of you, you struggle with putting the time in to getting your homework done. Pray about it. God will reward the time you spend with Him. Make it a priority. Beth told us in the video this week that True Freedom does not come with just a 5 minute daily devotional… True Freedom comes from doing an in-depth Bible Study and spending a lot of time with the Savior…
So, where do you struggle? Does Beth offer something new that you haven’t thought of before? Will you share it here with us? Be willing to not hide in the darkness anymore. Step out into God’s grace…. Be Free in Christ!!

Pride is a big one for me as well. I have ask the Lord daily to help me humble myself before him. And boy can I tell the days I forgot to ask. Those are the days where nothing pleases me. I get angry over things that normally wouldn’t even hit the radar. Why? Because I’m being prideful and I’m not getting my way. Oh Lord, help me to ever walk in submission to your Holy Spirit and to humble myself before you every day… Cat >
