The journey from half-way living to the all-in life in Christ requires that we cultivate a holy defiance of the enemy.  Jesus set the example.  When Peter questioned his mission he shot back, ‘get behind me Satan’.  When the Pharisees challenged his authority he shouted, ‘you brood of vipers!’  When commerce invaded the temple it incited such righteous anger that he overturned tables and drove out merchants declaring for all to hear that this .

I am convinced that God is more concerned with who we are than what we do.  He is more concerned with the transformation of our hearts than the transaction of our business.  I have learned the hard way that He loves us enough to let us falter and fail when we try to live life on our own terms according to our own strength.  He will deny us prosperity if it proves the only .

I am beginning 2012 with one defiant proclamation – I’m done, through and finished with living half-way.  I’ve been trying it for years, and I have come to the conclusion that as a Christian the half-way life sucks! Actually, for anyone, there is nothing satisfying, fulfilling or joyful about half-way.  Leaving half-way through a movie, going half-way to your vacation destination, completing half of your degree, climbing half-way up a mountain, being committed half-way to a project, .
