Hey, it's Terry, your cheerleader of dreams.

Today I want to talk to you about the challenges you're going through right now

and the reason you're going through them.

You know, let me just ask you real quick.

Have you ever watched one of those professional bull fights

with those matadors and they've got the red cloth,

and they, you know, dangle it in front of the bull, and he rubs his little foot in the dirt,

and then he charges after the matador, and then he goes like this, and the bull gets angry,

and he goes around and charges after the red cloth.

Here's the thing.

The red cloth is not the enemy. It's the guy holding it.

But if the bull would just wake up and realize who the enemy is,

he could annihilate the Matador with one charge.

Well, the reason I'm telling you that is because the Bible says

we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities and powers and rulers of darkness.

I want you to know that your war is with the devil. I want you to know, sometimes you just have to hear that, that the enemy hopes you never get the right perspective about what you're going through.

He hopes that what you're dealing with right now

intimidates you, worries you, causes you to just shrink back in fear.

I'm here to tell you that what you're going through

is leading you to the greatest breakthrough you've ever had.

If you keep the right perspective. Listen to this. The size of your

challenge is an indication of the size of your calling. I want you to let that sink in. See,
