1. Your full COMMITMENT in pursuit of Jesus is REQUIRED if you want to see BREAKTHROUGH. You don’t become holy by accident. And if you check out every time it gets difficult, you will never see true breakthrough in your life.

2. Arm yourself with the ATTITUDE of JESUS. Look at this arsenal: Willful, joyful suffering, self-denial, willing to die, humble, servant, obedient – these are simply NOT POSSIBLE without receiving the very DNA of JESUS

3. You can’t pursue SIN and pursue JESUS. Again, doesn’t make you sinless, but you SIN LESS, because you are on a journey to become more like Jesus (Hebrews 12:1-2)

4. Jesus frees you from SIN and frees you to pursue GOD’S WILL. When sin no longer owns you, you can RUN TOWARD JESUS

5. You are not who you were. If you call yourself a follower of Jesus, time to take stock in your life. Is there anything I am protecting that is keeping me from pursuit of Jesus?
