One of the biggest struggles people tend to have is changing, but if we don't Change we remain in a RUT and go backwards! Why no trust God's Word and counsel?  

James 4:17 - defeat - out of God's will
 
Matt. 6:33 - victory - in God's will

* Truth of life + the Word = A VICTORIOUS LIFESTYLE - #1 Priority
 
BIBLICAL CHOICES
James 4:4 - How? The world's influence - the enemy of God!

James 4:17 - What Is sin? DISCERN IT -------------------> SIN

James 4:7 - Submit to GOD and ----> Satan will flee

Prov. 14:15-16 ---> WISE Choices

FAITH
James 2:14-19 Believe in God- the demons SHUTTER!!

James 2:24-26 - Faith + Deeds = a victorious Lifestyle as by faith we "TRUST and OBEY there is no other way."

Standing still or moving?
* Standing is not possible! To attempt and fail 10,000 times seeking God's will is better than doing nothing which is BACK-SLIDING . There is always something we can or should do. 

i.e. Ex. 14:13-18 Moses was told what to do---> vs.21 Moses OBEYED (in process   all night ) and God's promise occurred --> vs.27 AGAIN Moses OBEYED and God defeated "the fleshly world."
