Living an abundant life means letting go of lies and past sin patterns that hinder us.

These lies and bad habits can often feel comfortable, but they're truly keeping you from

experiencing abundant life every single day.

The best truth of all is that they have no power or authority in your life anymore

through the power of Jesus.

To release the lies and old patterns of thinking and acting, we'll see a new life spring

up in our lives everywhere that we look.

May this be the case for each one of us today.

Welcome to the First of Team podcast.

The scripture for today comes from Psalm 103 verses 2 through 4.

God's word says, bless the Lord, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits, who forgives

all your iniquity, who heals all your diseases, who redeems your life from the pit, who crowns

you with steadfast love and mercy.

Too often we as believers settle for lives less than what God intends for us.

God has the desire and ability to do far greater than we can ever ask or imagine.

He longs for us to live healed, transformed, and set free from the bonds of sin and slavery

to the world.

As we look at God's plans for healing, transformation, and freedom today, I pray that you will be filled

with the hunger for the fullness of life available to you in Christ Jesus.

Jesus spent most of his ministry doing powerful works of physical and emotional healing.

And once he ascended to heaven, he passed on the ministry of healing to his disciples

and empowered them to do even greater works.
