Strongholds That Keep Us From What We Want

Strongholds are the things that keep us from what we want.  Dr. Kevin Elko lists three Strongholds that hold us back in our lives.

3 Strongholds In Our Lives:

1. COMFORT--we always want to be comfortable.  Can't get what I want because there's discomfort out there.
2. APPROVAL--want everyone to like me.
3. NEED TO BE RIGHT--This will keep you from Peace & Happiness.  It's fighting because they're "right".  We must let go of the need to be right.  Pick your battles--big enough to fight and small enough to win.  If there's nothing to be gained, then there's no reason to fight.  Don't get sucked into another's need to simply be right.  If I win the argument, what did I win?  We all know people that challenge you to go nowhere.  Keep your focus to being a blessing to others instead of simply trying to be right.
