Hey, this is Michael Beckier with brilliant perspectives and welcome to this week's

podcast. Today's clip of Graham is titled Stay Tough with Trust. It's a good one.

Graham talks about how we as believers are learning to face life's oppositions from a place of

trust and identity. He discusses how we overcome the difficulties in our lives through our

relational posture before the father, as either a much-love child that's fully provided for

or as a son of the father with God given kingdom authority to step into his promises.

Both of these identities are open invitations into a greater trust and a more dynamic relationship

with father.

Enjoy.

You know, usually you either fight to get into

what God has for you, or you fight to stay in there.

If you come into an experience of God easily,

PONUS, then usually you find that you have a fight to stay in, yeah?

Or if it's tough to break into something that God has got for you, you usually find it's much easier to abide.

Either way, you're going to have a fight, yeah? You're going to have a fight because one because the enemy is going to contest

the ground of your promises and your permissions.

I don't get used to that.

You know, you live your life on a battlefield

between God on the one side and the devil on the other.

Yeah?

When you're on that battlefield,

it's really helpful to know whose side you're on.
