Open Doors: Conversations with Heart of the Father
Open Doors is a conversation about inviting God’s love, presence, and power into our hearts. We are friends and teammates from Heart of the Father Ministries who share in the mission of setting captive hearts free through Unbound ministry. We’ll be touching on the impact of Neal Lozano’s book, Unbound, and hearing stories of lives changed through Unbound ministry. At times we’ll dig deep into the Five Keys of Unbound, simple responses to the gospel with profound impact on hearts and lives. Join us for stories, insights, reflections, and prayer as we seek Him together! Learn more at www.heartofthefather.com. Music by Christian Harper. Artwork by Rosemary Strohm at Command-S.
Open Doors: Conversations with Heart of the Father
"It's a Good Time to Consider Renunciation" with Jenn Lozano and Neal Lozano
In this episode, Jenn hosts Neal as they discuss the reasons why Renunciation, the Third Key of Unbound, is so important.
So you're following Jesus, and there's something in your life that doesn't belong to you and in that relationship you have with Him. Well, it's a good time to consider renunciation!
Renunciation means that, in the name of Jesus, we break with any ties which are not of God – saying in essence, “I’m done with this!”
The need for renunciation occurs when there is something in one’s life that doesn’t belong – things like sinful patterns, lies, fears, and unholy attachments. We can renounce these things using the great power that comes from Jesus’ name. Renunciation is a normal part of a Christian's life.
Satan, our enemy, is the father of lies and Neal explains how this plays out into one’s thought life. When we host deception and lies about God and ourselves, the enemy draws near and wants to bring us into bondage. We begin seeing these things as a part of us, and therein agreeing with them and making a home for them. Once we recognize the lies, we can take a stand against them.
Learn the three steps of renunciation and what happened at a Freedom in Christ conference that caused someone to say, “I feel like I just took a spiritual shower!”
