- 0:00Speaker 1: We all have things that come against us in life.
- 0:03Speaker 1: people that aren't fair, a sickness that won't seem to
- 0:06Speaker 1: go away, or a setback in our finances. Sometimes it
- 0:11Speaker 1: was no fault of our own. We were born into difficulties,
- 0:15Speaker 1: parents that weren't around, depression and addictions that keep getting
- 0:19Speaker 1: passed down. We wonder, why am I having this opposition?
- 0:24Speaker 1: Why was I raised in an unhealthy childhood? Why did
- 0:27Speaker 1: this company let me go after all these years? It's
- 0:31Speaker 1: because there's something in you that the enemy's trying to stop.
- 0:36Speaker 1: Those bad breaks were not random. You weren't just unlucky.
- 0:41Speaker 1: Those were strategic attacks. If the enemy wasn't threatened by you,

- 0:49Speaker 1: couldn't see greatness in you, he wouldn't waste his time
- 0:54Speaker 1: bringing those challenges. When you gave your life to Christ,
- 0:58Speaker 1: God marked you. He said, you're mine. He put that
- 1:01Speaker 1: crown of favor on your head. That's great, but the
- 1:05Speaker 1: challenge is you became a target to the enemy. He
- 1:10Speaker 1: knows you're destined to take new ground. He knows God
- 1:13Speaker 1: has favored you to leave your mark. So he's going
- 1:17Speaker 1: to work overtime to try to stop you. Many times
- 1:21Speaker 1: the enemy knows who we are, even before we realize
- 1:25Speaker 1: who we are.
