Get out of your own way

I’m not trying to get my way in the world’s way.
I’m trying to get your way, your Word’s way. Psalm 17:4-5 MSG

Resistance, love has got to fight for its existence 
The enemy has armies of assistants

Rise up, O God, and defend your cause.... Do not ignore the clamor of your adversaries, the uproar of your enemies, which rises continually. Psalm 74:22-23 NIV
 
Your enemies roar in the midst of Your meeting place; They set up their banners for signs. They seem like men who lift up Axes... Psalm 74:4-8 NKJV

Nothing‘s stopping you except what’s inside
I can help you but it’s your fight, your fight

Jesus... said, “There’s one thing left: Go sell whatever you own and give it to the poor. All your wealth will then be heavenly wealth. And come follow me.” The man’s face clouded over. This was the last thing he expected to hear, and he walked off with a heavy heart. He was holding on tight to a lot of things, and not about to let go. Mark 10:21-22 MSG

Freedom, the slaves are looking for someone to lead them
The master’s looking for someone to need him

Slavery is no roadblock to obeying and believing.... under your new Master you’re going to experience a marvelous freedom you would never have dreamed of. On the other hand... you’ll experience a delightful “enslavement to God” you would never have dreamed of. 1 Corinthians 7:20-22 MSG
 
They promise these newcomers freedom, but they themselves are slaves of corruption... 2 Peter 2:17-19 MSG

The ​promised land is there for those who need it most

Abraham: "The Lord, the God of heaven, who brought me out of... my native land and who spoke to me and promised me on oath, saying, 'To your offspring I will give this land'". Genesis 24:7 NIV (First mention of the Promised Land in the Bible)
 
By faith he made his home in the promised land like a stranger in a foreign country; he lived in tents, as did Isaac and Jacob, who were heirs with him of the same promise. Hebrews 11:9 NIV

Blessed are the arrogant for theirs is the kingdom of their own company
Blessed are the superstars for in the magnificence of their light we understand better our own insignificance
Blessed are the filthy rich for you can only truly own what you give away, like your pain

Jesus: "Blessed are the poor in spirit,
for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted.
Blessed are the meek, for they will inherit the earth.
Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be filled.
Blessed are the merciful, for they will be shown mercy.
Blessed are the pure in heart, for they will see God.
Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called children of God.
Blessed are those who are persecuted because of righteousness, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.​ ​Matthew 5:3-10 NIV see also Luke 6:20-23
