Introduction
“A stronghold is what one uses to fortify and defend a personal belief, idea or opinion against outside opposition. A stronghold is the fortification around and defense of what you believe, especially when you are dead wrong.”
In her book Shattering Your Strongholds, Christian author Liberty S. Savard writes, “A stronghold is what one uses to fortify and defend a personal belief, idea or opinion against outside opposition. A stronghold is the fortification around and defense of what you believe, especially when you are dead wrong.” In this study, I will examine spiritual laws regarding strongholds. My goal is to teach you to recognize these principles found in the Word of God and to see how they affect your life for better or for worse. With the help of the Holy Spirit, I will also teach you how to destroy these strongholds, creating the atmosphere for the Holy Spirit to take you into a deeper relationship not only with Himself, but with God our Father.
This study will require determination, perseverance, and self-sacrifice on your part. You will have to seek God to find answers to your issues. I hope to provide you with the tools for this journey.
Get ready, tighten your spiritual seat belt, set your expectancies on high alert, and let us delve into the Word of God together.
“That the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give unto you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of him: The eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that ye may know what is the hope of his calling, and what the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints” (Ephesians 1:17–18 KJV).
