Thoughts that go unchecked long enough in our minds cause us to stumble and sin against God. It’s the enemy’s plan to let these thoughts fester and grow. However, we must remember that the work of Jesus is FINISHED. Not only has Jesus established a beachhead for us to launch into #Victory-he has provided us with blueprints of the enemy’s plans. In the power of the Holy Spirit and the knowledge of how the enemy operates, we defend our thoughts and break the cycle of sin and temptation! Join us next week as we dive into practical steps to defend ourselves against the enemy.
To beat the enemy’s plan, it helps to know his thoughts. Look at the seven steps below that lead to the spiral of sin and temptation so that you can fight the enemy.
1. A temptation from the enemy enters our minds.
2. We act on that temptation and we sin.
3. There is usually momentary pleasure.
4. We discover sin’s hook.
5. We are met by feelings of frustration guilt and shame.
6. The enemy shifts to a new tactic - condemnation.
7. We find ourselves vulnerable, weak, isolated, empty and longing.

At Passion City Church we believe that because God has displayed the ultimate sacrifice in Jesus, our response to that in worship must be extravagant. It is our privilege, and our created purpose, to reflect God’s Glory back to Him through our praise, our sacrifice, and our song.

I stood up during the call of confessing sin. I remember not thinking I was in sin because I had the 10 commandments down, but the Spirit said "Stand up." I was just selfish. Seeking my own destiny. I stood and tears flowed. It was a pivotal day in my walk with Christ.
Such a relevant message to us as human beings with a sin problem. Been in this cycle as a believer for some time. On personal struggles that seem to be so heavy and have done many things you say here. It seems I need to keep my focus on Christ and not myself or performance for the victory. Well here goes....Lord let's start fresh and rely on You and not me for victory even though I've failed countless times. Please give me Yourself as You are my living hope.
please pray for me. I have a stronghold that keeps coming up that keeps tempting me and I've given in from time to time. Doing what I don't want to do and not doing what I want to do. Thank you and God bless you. I am grateful for your sermons Louie
I know sin all too well but I don’t live in it anymore. 🙏 Thank you Jesus.
This is a much needed message for me I’m in that exact point feeling helpless hopeless and being continuously accused by the devil but I believe God spoke to me through this! I believe that my story’s not over yet! Thank you pastor Louie ❤️
Thank you for sharing this message. We are often taught that “sin is evil” but we are rarely provided Satan’s tactics the way it is broken down in this message.
@Louie Giglio - how many books would I sell if I told my testimony of God, that didn't involve entering a church, tithing, praying, or anything other than just God showing up? Not a lot of money would be made for churches or causes... but oh my... the glory it would bring to the Lord. It seems churches, like doctors and all worldly organisations, need people to be continually broken so that they can get the money and continue... God isn't like that. And Jesus let us know that.
This talk is FUEL for the fight! Great job Louie!
I can so relate to this as a heroin addict, how the devil can deceive me as simple as a thing of lust before the drug relapse
Glory, awesome, thank You Lord Jesus.
Please pray for me.

I will!
Thank you Louie! I sat under your teaching at 7:22 in Dunwoody over 20 years ago. God Bless you Brother.
Amen, can't wait for Sunday!
I never skip ads...this is the only way I can show my gratitude for Ptr. Louie

Nice
and stop saying that it's lack of faith that leaves me in abuse. I was born. And on my way from birth to childhood, someone outside of me chose to sexually abuse me - and in sexually abusing me, he also emotionally abused me by assuring I had no knowledge of love. he wasn't a parent, so he also destroyed any and all hope I might have had in trusting a parent. I grew up trying to protect myself, from the shame of what I was enduring, from the shame and filth I felt about myself being with my family, and from the shame and filth I felt in the world... and this was before I'd even entered preschool. I also learnt to protect my family from my shame so that the perpetrator would appear normal and that I took on the entirety of darkness... not to protect the abuser, but to protect the people I loved dearly and so dearly wanted them to love me... and I continued this pattern all my life and still do to this day - 50yrs later. It was never lack of faith.... I know that. I know how many times without even calling on God, that He entered into a situation that I couldn't bear... and He held me. He just held me. He didn't rescue me. He didn't demand more faith from me, and He didn't ask me to repent, He just held me. So churches, sort yourselves out because God is and always has been meeting people in the darkness - but you guys are so self righteous that you are missing it.
WOW!!!!!!!!
Thank you sir
can I just say that the church is always saying that 'we' fail because of our lack of 'faith' but when we look to the church we see - that the church idolises couples and marriages - that the church does nothing to welcome the ugly and the lost - that the church does nothing to look after the widows (the husbandless), the aliens (the lost and alone), the fatherless (the godless) - but instead worships exactly the same thing that the world worships... so what's the difference? the church doesn't welcome the abused - the broken, or the lost? it only welcomes the ones it idolises. no wonder Jesus chose to give up his life outside the gates - because the inner gates are bollox. and people think that the churches of today, have nothing in common with the church and ritual/religious set up of the one that Jesus tore to pieces on His way to the Cross. He was demolishing all their self righteousness... and churches of today, don't think they have it - but just like that market that He demolished - today we see preachers setting up tables, marketing their wares, selling tapes and all sorts of promises on how to get close to god... and it's horrendous. I see so many people saying things like 'Joyce Meyer' has saved my life, 'Louie Giglio' has saved my life, John McArthur has changed my life, Elevation Church has changed my life, Matt Chandler has inspired me to fight the good fight, Steven Furtick and my tithing to his church has given me a new life... and I can't see any difference in these testimonies in comparison to the testimonies printed in Tony Robbins conventions, so worldly. Is it Jesus that changes lives, or isn't it? I won't step a foot back into a church that idolises wordliness - and most, if not all of them do.
Any one know if there is a scripture related to the ministry 722
