Today on Daily Hope with Pastor Rick Warren, we continue in our riveting journey through the series, The Invisible War.

In it, we'll explore the unseen world of good and evil and see how it impacts our day-to-day existence.

Join us for eye-opening biblical insights into the spiritual dimensions

that influence our lives in ways we never imagined. Right now, here's Pastor Rick Warren

with part one of a message called Set Free from Me. The Bible teaches that you have three enemies that are trying to mess up your life.

They want to defeat your family.

They want to defeat your life.

They want to steal your soul.

They want to keep you from having joy and purpose and meaning here in life.

And these three enemies come against you.

It's kind of triple team and, you know, tag team wrestling or, you know, double team,

take down, things like that.

And the Bible calls these three enemies that you have the world, the flesh, and the devil.

The world comes around you, Satan comes against you, and the battle with you is within you.

And this summer we're going to go in detail into each of these three enemies, because if you don't know who the enemy is, you can never win the battle, and you're going to go through life defeated most of your life.

Now, we're beginning with your biggest enemy and your biggest enemy

is not Satan. It's not the world. It's you. You are your biggest problem. And as I said last

week, I said, you know, when you want to run away from your problems, you want to go to Cancun,

the problem is you take you with you. And all of that internal stuff is inside you.

Now, what we looked at last week as we began studying the battle inside you is that you really

do have two natures if you are a believer. You have your old nature, which wants to do what's

fun, which wants to do what's convenient. Not necessarily the right thing, the best thing, or even what's good for you. A lot of things you want to do are actually self-destructive to you. And you know for a certain fact that there are things you know that be good for you, be healthy for you, and you don't do them. And you know that there are things that are bad for you that are unhealthy for you that mess up your life, and you still do them anyway.
