Tammy Hotsenpiller

When we confess, the Holy Spirit cleanses us.  We have to read God’s Word.  God will speak to you.

 

Coaching Tips:

1. Read Psalm 32 and be honest with yourself

2. Ask God if there is someone you need to forgive

3. Confess daily and monitor your faith if you are spiritually growing

 

 

Tammy is a life coach and pastor and loves to teach the Word of God.  There is a lack of discipline in our lives but it is a choice.  Prayer is becoming obsolete.  So many are not having a connection anymore with the God of the Universe.  But the power of prayer is so contagious.  True prayer is a way of life not just an emergency.  We must pray without ceasing or all day long.  

 

Coaching Tips:

1. Set your alarm 5 minutes before you get up and spend 5 minutes on your knees.  Thank God for……

2. Memorize and recite the Lord’s Prayer which is a model prayer.

3. Is there something blocking your prayer request like unforgiveness?

 

 

Tammy will be talking about the difference between spiritual disciplines and personal disciplines.  Both are important.  Spiritual discipline means instruction or training.  Discipline means to discern or to learn.  It helps us overcome laziness.  Silence and solitude = aromas

It is the state of being alone. (internal and external noise).  God speaks with love, peace, patience, kindness.  Solitude is being alone with God or sitting in the presence of God.  God will speak to you.

 

Coaching Tips:

1. Set a weekly schedule time with God

2. Start slow

3. Be prepared for distractions and be focused

 

Sword of the Spirit.  In Hebrews 4:12 it says for the Word of God is living and active, sharper than any two-edged sword.  What is the Word of God?  Rhema is a word from God for me.  Logos is the written Word of God.  The Spirit wants us to understand the power over the enemy.  Quote scripture in the Name of Jesus.  The enemy will flee. What are the action steps?  1)  Prepare every morning for battle (six pieces of armor of God).  2)  Pray!  Ask Holy Spirit to fill you and anoint you. (insight, wisdom and revelation)  3)  Spend a few moments reading and reciting the Word of God.  

 

How has God used this series to change your life?

The helmet of our salvation.  There are two purposes:  protection and identification.  It identifies who you are as a daughter or son of the Lord Jesus Christ. If you don’t know Him personally it doesn’t do any good to put the armor on.  If you do, then stop and thank God for your salvation.  All the promises of God are ours:  1) He will deliver us from fear. Psalm 34:4.  2) He will never leave you. Matthew 28:20.  3) He will guide us. Proverbs 3:5-6.  4) He will forgive you.  1 John 1:9.  Listen and you will hear about peace and rest and the benefits.  If you don’t know scripture, you can’t battle the enemy.

Shield of Faith.  We learn about what is faith and that we have to exercise our faith.  Faith is the shield that extinguishes the fiery darts of Satan.  We also learn about the Hall of Faith.  The Coaching Questions:  1.  We said that Faith, is saying something is so, when it is not so, in order for it to be so.  Does that definition make sense to you?  Explain in your own words.  2.  We read several stories from the Hall of Faith.  Whose faith story do you relate with the most?  Why?  3.  How have you used the Shield of Faith to extinguish Satan’s darts in your own life?

Here we learn about the Shoes of the Gospel of Peace.  The gospel is the Good News.  Then comes Peace which is wholeness and salvation.  Then is Shalom which is completeness, nothing broken, nothing missing.  Here we learn about two purposes for putting on the (Good New) shoes.  We will also find out about peace bandits.
The Coaching Questions:  1.  Are you comfortable sharing your testimony?  What would you say if someone asked you about your faith?  2.  We talked about having the mind of Christ.  Do you struggle with keeping your thoughts positive and edifying?  3.  We learned that often your mind is taken captive by Peace Bandits…those things that try to rob our joy and time.  In what way does the enemy try to capture your attention?

This is about the Belt of Truth and the Breastplate of Righteousness.  The Coaching Questions:  1.  Are you walking in the truth of God’s Word?,  2.  Are you trying to please God by your works and self-righteousness?, 3.  Memorize 2 Corinthians 5:17, “Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation.  The old has passed away;  behold, the new has come.”

This is going to be a teaching series on how to stand strong in today’s world.  If there were ever a time to stand it is today.  The bible gives us authority to stand.  It gives us the armor of God in Ephesians 6.  The enemy wants you to hide.  Don’t put your head in the sand.  It is our watch to make a difference.  Know who your enemy is.  Coaching Questions:  1.  Who are you wrestling with in the physical realm?  2.  In what ways does the enemy have a stronghold over you?  3.  What steps can you take to not react to the enemy’s strategies.  

Clay has taken up the fight for America.  Clay Clark is founder of Thrive Time.  How did Clay get into this entrepreneurship?  1.  Find a problem people have,  2.  Find a solution,  3.  Sell a solution, 4.  Scale it.  Clay Clark also says we have to rethink what we are doing.  If we aren’t diligent now we won’t win the war.
