Today’s segment makes aware of the idea that one cannot separate the personhood from their daily habits. We have many habits that have been carried into adulthood, not realizing they are linked to the beliefs about oneself. Whether they are good or bad habits, they are fully displayed. This chapter challenges us to decide who we desire to become. If we really desire to see some habits changed, we have to dig deep for those underlying beliefs about ourselves. We generally have a plan to change behaviors first. Subsequently, deep issues of the identity gets neglected, hence revolving back to bad habits. We discover that habit formation comes from deciding who you want to become. We then honor our identity by maintaining those habits associated with that identity.

#15 | Tiny Changes Become Mighty
In a world that values grand finales or finally reaching the big goal, it is so easy to forget the tiny steps it takes to get to those magnificent places. We live in a world that is bent towards the idea of greatness and dismisses the tiny moves and endurance that it takes to get there. That greatness, achievement or magnificent place can be equivalent to a person being 37 times better in one year. James Clear, attributes this idea from being 1% better everyday, which results in being 37 times better after one year. What kind of tiny system can you put in place to get you there? Today we talk about Clear’s profound idea in this first chapter.

#12 | Tear Down the High Places
High places are not a new phenomenon. You can read all about it in the book of 2 Kings. It is recorded that many kings enthroned chose not to tear down high places., though it is recorded that there was one that broke the mold. Nonetheless, we are not any different at times. We tend to still have some high places erected in our lives. 2 Corinthians 10:5 explicitly speaks of them, “We demolish arguments and every pretension that sets itself up against the knowledge of God, and we take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ.” They may come in a variety of ways such as achievements, successes, people, fractured and ruminating thoughts, statuses, desires and so much more. All of which, are taking the place of God in our lives. I encourage you to venture with me about this sobering reality that many face today and the dangers of “high places” remaining in our lives.

#11 | Hannah Had Manna
We discover that it takes something deep…a deep seated faith on the inside of us to keep up calling on Jesus! This deep seated sustenance such as Hannah’s faith or this internal “manna” sustained her in her affliction, anguish and sorrow. She knew her LORD was the only one who had the answer in His hands. She knew where her help came from. She depicts an unwavering faith as she continued to pour her heart out to the LORD. We are encouraged to remain with a deep seated sustenance that keeps us calling on Jesus as He is our only hope and solution.

#10 Humility Leads to Calling Upon the Name of the Lord
We must learn to put “self” aside and let humility arise. Though main stream and even some of the Church world views humility as weak, the Lord can be elevated in our weakness. Humility is not exclusive to a weakness, however it is often time in our broken hearts and contrite spirit that results us identifying that we need Him. This is called humility and humility produces a desire within to “call upon the name of the Lord!.” What has kept you from calling on the name of the Lord? Let’s discuss the frailty of man and the need for humility to lead us to the call!

We’ve all had to make a phone call a time or two to obtain some type of assistance for a particular need. But who do you call when people are unmatched to the level of your need? What if we were a people who were so familiar in calling upon the name of the Lord? That our number one choice was to call on Jesus? In this episode, calling upon the name of the Lord began in Genesis 4 and we discuss the need for a believer to have a natural response to just that.

There are many things that we should disregard or dismiss in life but our headspace and speech are not to be taken lightly or dismissed.
