TURNING POINT TUESDAY:15 HINDRANCES TO A TRUE RELATIONSHIP WITH GOD. Turn Obstacles Into Victories!

As promised I am continuing the topic of developing the relationship with God we long for and need.  Dealing with the inconsistency of Loving God and being thankful for his Blessings, but not being motivated about having a True Relationship with Him.  This is a continuation of last week's message, so please take time to read the previous blog post.  Again I want to thank one of the supporters of this blog for being honest enough to request that I address this subject.  Below I have put together a list of 15 Hindrances to a True Relationship With God along with questions to assess where we stand.  Please review the list and evaluate if you are being challenged in any of these areas.  I would like to spend some time on these hindrances (avoid breezing over).  For this reason, over the next couple of months I will take time to deal with each one.  Yes, there are  more obstacles but I am sharing the ones the Holy Spirit gave me.  In order to Solve a Problem and achieve RESULTS we must first Identify What the problem is.  Uncovering these obstacles will allow us to know immediately what we are up against and rely on wisdom from God to devise plans to defeat the plots of the enemy.  I do not profess to be a Bible Scholar, I am only a child of the True and Living God on fire to fulfill the Great Commission through writing.  The Great Commission is a command to all those who accept Jesus as their Lord and Savior. (Matthew 28:18-20).  My hopes for the readers of this blog is encouragement that God will use WHOEVER He wants (believer without a title), HOWEVER  He wants (unique gifts) to spread the Word of God (the Master has Great Plans for You).  Before I write I pray for the precious Holy Spirit to take over my mind, heart, and fingers to communicate a word that will encourage readers to Accept Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior and live according to His Holy Word.  For this reason, I pray that these messages will IGNITE each of you to be a Sell Out for Jesus Christ and live the rest of your days  believing, trusting, depending, obeying, and following God (Walk With Him).  Please Note when I refer to God I am also referring to Jesus Christ.  Life Application Study Bible John 10:30 I and My Father are one.

Here we Go.  Can You Identify with Any of these Hindrances?


"The Obstacles of Your Yesterday Hold the Keys to Unlocking the Dynamic Destiny of Your Today." 

15 Hindrances to a

True Relationship with God

1. UNBELIEF - Do you DOUBT God's Ability and Power in Your Life and overall circumstances?
2. ACCOUNTABILITY- Are you Planted amongst a Local Group of Believers (church membership) or are you only accountable to Yourself?
3. GOD'S PROMISES - Do You Really Know What God has Promised you according to his Holy Word?  If the answer is yes, What is one Promise and Where Can it be found in the Bible?
4. UNWILLING TO GIVE UP UNHEALTHY HABITS - Are you continuously doing something that is unhealthy for your spirit and is it taking the place of your time with GOD?
5. PERCEPTION OF GOD - Who do you Really think God Is?  ( a spirit, Jesus Christ, not sure, a figure of your imagination) Must KNOW Who GOD IS...
6. TOO BUSY - Are you Carving out Time in Your Busy Schedule for God or giving Him what is left over?
7. "WHY SYNDROME" - Are you still asking Why something Happened in Your Life and wanting to GET ANSWERS from God? (brought about by tragedy, grief, abuse, hurtful situations, etc.)
8. UNKNOWN IDENTITY- Do you know who you are according to God's definition of You (not the world's definition)?
9. RELIANCE- Are you relying on others for Spiritual Direction and Truth? (Only learn about God through Pastor, Family Members, Friends: All learning is Outsourced instead of Insourced)
10. SIN- What Habitual SINS are taking the place of your relationship and time with God?
11. THE PAST- Are you Still allowing your Past to Control your Future? (Broken Record of your past sins playing in your head)
12. PLAIN OLD LAZINESS- Do you put any EFFORT towards walking with God or do you expect GOD to do all the work?
13. PRIORITIES- What are your Priorities in Life and is God at the Top or Bottom of the List?
14. RELATIONSHIPS - Are you trying to work on a Relationship with God without resolving the Broken Relationships you have with all of Gods sons and daughters (relatives, friends, co-workers, church members)?
15. PRIDE - Are you Depending on God or Yourself? (Hint: If you have not talked with God lately you are probably depending on yourself to get things done)

* Don't forget I will address each Hindrance over the next couple of months....
Thanks and All Glory to GOD that you are reading this post. Please, Please make the enemy mad and pass this message to other people that are struggling in these areas (start reaching the world with God's message versus passing on messages that Glorify Satan).  Just know you are not alone in these hindrances.  God is dealing with me in these areas as well and I thank Him in Advance for the Deliverance!  If you are not having ANY OBSTACLES in your relationship with God and you think this information is not relevant to you, make sure you are NOT ALREADY in RIGHT RELATIONSHIP WITH SATAN!  Satan Does not want the ones He already has.  Continue to pray to GOD for strength in the areas that are keeping you away from him.  Press Into his Word because it is LIFE!  If you know you are struggling start asking God to give you a Plan that involves his Word and not Yours.  I know even right now the enemy is afraid because he knows WE (me too) are going in the right direction to Mature in Christ.  Thank you God for helping us Walk with You!

Psalm 73: 25-28 NIV

25 Whom have I in heaven but you?



And earth has nothing I desire besides you.


26 My flesh and my heart may fail,


but God is the strength of my heart


and my portion forever.
27 Those who are far from you will perish;


you destroy all who are unfaithful to you.


28 But as for me, it is good to be near God.


I have made the Sovereign LORD my refuge;


I will tell of all your deeds




Love You and God Bless,
