Key Scriptures:
+ Romans 8:31. What then shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who is against us?
+ 1 John 4:17. By this, love is perfected with us, so that we may have confidence in the day of judgment; because as He is, so also are we in this world.
+ Exodus 14:21-22. Then Moses stretched out his hand over the sea; and the Lord swept the sea back by a strong east wind all night and turned the sea into dry land, so the waters were divided. The sons of Israel went through the midst of the sea on the dry land, and the waters were like a wall to them on their right hand and on their left.
+ Numbers 14:9. Only do not rebel against the Lord; and do not fear the people of the land, for they will be our prey. Their protection has been removed from them, and the Lord is with us; do not fear them.

| 0:01.0 | What if the very thing you're seeing as an obstacle is actually a neon sign pointing |
| 0:06.7 | to the sight of your next breakthrough? |
| 0:09.0 | Hey friends, welcome back to the Brilliant Perspectives podcast. |
| 0:15.0 | Today, we're exploring what it means to step into the territory that God has already prepared |
| 0:20.6 | for us, where problems |
| 0:22.9 | don't block our way, but actually become our way forward. |
| 0:28.0 | We'll talk about how the power of agreement with God's promises shapes our reality, |
| 0:33.4 | transforms our perspective, and releases us into greater favor and faith. |
| 0:38.3 | Ready to explore? Let's dive in with Graham Cook. |
| 0:42.3 | I'm Graham Cook, and this week I want to explore with you how to establish the territory that God wants to give you. There are two stages to every piece of our |
| 0:58.2 | development in Christ. Number one is the discovery of what we are meant to receive in Jesus in this |
| 1:06.8 | moment. Then secondly, learning how to step into that experience, how to own it and establish |
| 1:15.3 | it as a lifestyle. Powerful truth releases living power. The living word becomes the life of Jesus |
| 1:24.2 | in our daily reality. Life situations, they can be good, bad or ugly in the natural |
| 1:31.4 | world. But the kingdom produces a lifestyle of presence, promise, and power that allows us to rise |
| 1:42.4 | up above life issues, so that in all things we're learning to access the |
| 1:48.7 | same favor and faith that Jesus has with his father remember as he is so are we in this world |
| 1:57.9 | and all things are possible in him. If Christ is our internal territory, |
| 2:06.9 | then we must encounter his fullness as a way of life. I love the fact that God exchanges |
| 2:13.1 | the weaknesses we have in the world for the strength of Jesus in the kingdom. |
| 2:20.8 | And, you know, just as an overcomer must have something to overcome, |
| 2:26.7 | also a person with lack needs a promise in order to inherit. |
