Blessed greetings everyone and welcome back to another episode of Tuesday Tune-up with Pastor Shirley Johnson. I am always blessed and honored to have you tuning in with us to hear what the Lord is saying concerning you. We have been enjoying a rich Summer Series over the past couple of months on victory through the Word of God, and victory through worship, and this month we will conclude our summer series with victory through warfare.
Often in this program, we look at positive ways that God flips situations in our favor or empowers us to overcome the attacks of the enemy. Our examination of warfare will be a bit different in that we will review battles lost because of disobedience as well as victories gained. I feel that it is important to view warfare through both lenses because sometimes we can experience defeat that should have been a victory because we failed to consult God or because we acted in opposition to His instruction. At other times, the deck can be fully stacked against us, and we can pull out an insurmountable victory because we dared to trust the Lord’s instruction and provision. The next 4 weeks are going to provide us with some dos and don’ts of Christian warfare that will allow us to create effective strategies for victorious living. Today’s episode, “The Cost of Disobedience” will focus on King Saul and the battle with the Amalekites. It is an example of the havoc disobedience wreaks in our lives and the devastation it brings to others because of our actions. This lesson is going to be riveting, but before we jump off the deep end, let’s pray and prepare to get tuned up in the word of God together.
