We're Ghana Go Back, Again - https://mailchi.mp/32358e0064d8/were-going-back-to-ghana-7277068

It’s time to embark again on a mission to Accra, Ghana with two focuses: the first will be on the immersive acts of worship, and the second on the strength of small group fellowship through modeling. As we immerse ourselves in the richness of Ghanaian culture, we'll be sharing with our brothers and sisters unique ways to express devotion to God. A part of our journey will also lead us to the northern region to revisit once more the Kpatinga Witch Camp.

Here's a link that will tell you everything the CIA knows about the country of Ghana (or any other country for that matter). All of the information is current.

Ghana is a multiethnic country rich in natural resources and is one of the most stable and democratic countries in West Africa. Ghana has been inhabited for at least several thousand years, but little is known about its early inhabitants. By the 12th century, the gold trade started to boom in Bono (...

DAY 20: OUR EYES AND EARS ARE GATEWAYS TO THE SOUL

Psalm 101:3 - REPEAL

I will set no worthless thing before my eyes; I hate the work of those who fall away; It shall not fasten its grip on me.

Matthew 6:22-23 - REPLACE

"If your eye is pure, there will be sunshine in your soul. But if your eye is clouded with evil thoughts and desires, you are in deep spiritual darkness. And oh, how deep that darkness can be!

Today, we are looking again at what we regularly allow through our "eye gate." Our eyes and ears are gateways to our mind and the way we think. People have told me that they can watch certain things in movies and television and not be affected. This cannot be farther from the truth. Everything we hear and see creates an imprint, or permanent record, within our brain. Jesus is our Savior, our brother, our husband, but we can never forget he is the form that we fill in the earth. We are now ONE WITH HIM. That oneness means we are IN AGREEMENT WITH JESUS. This is an easy test to see if what you are watching passes the test: is Jesus in agreement with it. Is Jesus ONE with what you are watching and listening. If not, be brutally honest with yourself and know that your mind will not be

transformed while it is being imprinted with darkness. God loves you and wants you to know the BEST

of life that His Son, Jesus, died for you to know. Lift your eyes from the darkness of this world, to the light of your destiny.

DAY 14: THE WISDOM OF THE WORLD IS EMPTY

Colossians 2:8 - REPEAL

Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ.

1 Peter 1:12-15 - REPLACE

It was revealed to them that they were serving not themselves but you, in the things that have now been announced to you through those who preached the good news to you by the Holy Spirit sent from heaven, things into which angels long to look" Therefore, preparing your minds for action, and being sober-minded, set your hope fully on the grace that will be brought to you at the revelation of Jesus Christ. As obedient children, do not be conformed to the passions of your former ignorance, but as he who called you is holy, you also be holy in all your conduct,

The Apostle Paul in Colossians 2:8 reminds us that there will always be someone who will be encouraging you to think and engage with wrong behavior. Know this, it is not only what you think, say, and do; but it is who you listen to and observe that forms you. You cannot be bombarded with a wrong way of thinking and behaving and think that it will not affect you. Sometimes we willingly give ourselves to watching and listening to what is contrary to God's Word. Please know that you will continue in frustration with your life in Christ if this way of living persists. Then there are times our environment is hostile to the Word of God and it is not of our own choosing. Either way, you are responsible to acknowledge the truth from a lie, and practice the truth. Be honest with yourself today. Take action to turn off the wrong thoughts and corrupt actions. You are on a new pathway of life.

Repeal and replace!

DAY 13: IT IS A MATTER OF LIFE OR DEATH.

Romans 8:12-13 - REPEAL

So then, brethren, we are under obligation, not to the flesh, to live according to the flesh-- for if you are living according to the flesh, you must die; but if by the Spirit you are putting to death the deeds of the body, you will live.

1 Peter 2:24 - REPLACE
..and He Himself bore our sins in His body on the cross, so that we might die to sin and live to righteousness; for by His wounds you were healed.

It is a matter of life or death. When you hear that phrase, your attention is captured. You know that you must listen intently, and without fail, proceed according to instruction. Jesus is the Way, the Truth, and the LIFE (John 14:6). Today, we repeal old ways of thinking that have kept us in a cycle of death. We declare death to death! Look at I Peter 2:24, this scripture reveals that Jesus bore our sin and death, but look, there's more; "by His wounds you were healed." We are delivered from sin and death, AND WE ARE HEALED! Rejoice, that Jesus has brought death to death and celebrate your life and health.

Practical step: W**d and seed: When a thought enters your mind that is not in line with the kingdom agenda and kingdom living (weeds), immediately Stop, Challenge, and Choose-then practice replacing that thought with what you would like to produce (seed).

DAY 12: YOU ARE THE LIGHT

1 John 1:6 - REPEAL

If we say that we have fellowship with Him and yet walk in the darkness, we lie and do not practice the truth;

1 John 1:7- REPLACE

but if we walk in the Light as He Himself is in the Light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus His Son cleanses us from all sin.

Stay in the lighted areas! It is time to admit that we cannot live a double life. James 3:11 reminds us that a well cannot bring forth bitter and sweet water. Neither can we, as sons and daughters of God live in darkness and light. John 1:4-5 says, In Him was life, and the life was the Light of men. The Light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not comprehend it. Darkness cannot intermingle with light. Yes, the blood of Jesus cleanses us, but you do not come out of a shower to roll in mud! The Holy Spirit alive in you will guide you into all truth (John 16:13). Your job is to follow directions with great love and gratitude!

DAY 11: DEATH AND LIFE ARE IN THE POWER OF THE TONGUE

Matthew 15:11 - REPEAL

It is not what goes into the mouth that defiles a person, but what comes out of the mouth; this defiles a person.

Proverbs 18:21 - REPLACE

Death and life are in the power of the tongue, and those who love it will eat its fruits.

Remember, this is a fast, and the Hebrew meaning of the word fast is "to shut the mouth." We are shutting our mouths from releasing negative life-killing words that should no longer be a part of who we are. Words begin as thoughts. Luke 6:45 reveals, "Out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks." You have heard the phrase, "think before you speak." When you have a negative thought, there is a 3 second period where you can change that thought on purpose. The second a negative thought comes into your mind, acknowledge it is illegal and change it on purpose by speaking the opposite. STOP CHALLENGE AND CHOOSE. This is how we overcome, by the blood of the Lamb and the WORD OF OUR TESTIMONY (Revelation 12:11). We overcame the test with our words and by the blood of Jesus.
