My mom and I were talking about how we all have issues/strongholds that we need to take to the alter. Some of us may not know it or choose not to believe it but there is something in our lives that prevent maximum growth. It could be something as small as not following a task through or having too many tasks on your plate at once! Nevertheless we must realize what they are and work towards releasing it. It starts with taking self-inventory and wanting to reach your full potential. Next you have to seek the help/advice you need to accomplish and release, whether it be a friend, counselor, or pastor. The enemy finds a way to kill, steal and destroy all that's in his path. The smallest things could have the biggest adverse effect on you and how you handle certain situations. Waking up a noon everyday or skipping breakfast might seem small or unimportant, but those two things have negative strongholds that could be preventing your maximum growth and potential. The saying, 'don't sweat the small stuff', is not a quote you should follow in this case. It's the small stuff that satan uses to destroy or simply use as a weight in our lives. Make a change, sweat even the small stuff and realize what is your strongholds!

Great post.
Appreciate the reminder @ The smallest things could have the biggest adverse effect on you and how you handle certain situations.
If asking, I believe we all will continue to have strongholds in some area of our life. Sin assures this. But I believe the amount itself can be lessened and better controlled.
If that makes sense.
Thanks DCJ
Makes plenty of sense and I agree totally!!!
Great Post! I agree the small things are equally important if not more and we have 2 pay attention 2 detail cause satan has his popcorn ready watching us take small things 4 granted.
You are sooo right 25champ. Everything isn't about JUST sin all the time, but weights. Things that hold you down and prevent growth can be equally as damaging!
