Bishop Odell Townsend's 4/5/09 Sermon Notes

Power of darkness rides a bad attitude.

You cannot stay mad too long before it turns into bitterness. Don't let the sun go down on wrath. Colossians 3:8 put off (rid yourself of) all of these: anger, wrath, ...

long-term anger = bitterness

biblical perfection = motive + commitment

1 Peter 5:7 Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you.

Worry & Fear will ride you to the wave of Mr. Unbelief.
Worry & Fear will take you to the arms of Mr. Unbelief.

Power - Proof of winning every round

WORD - Way Of Rebuking Devil

1 Peter 5:8b The devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour

Do NOT fear the lion's roar; Fearing a lion's roar will move you from God's protection to unbelief (the devil's place of destruction).

Do NOT attempt to fight the devil when you're in HALT - Hungered, Angered, Lonely, Tired.
