014 - Week Ten (Chapter 10) of the "10-4" Program

The Feeling Better - Gambling Addiction & Spiritual Warfare

This podcast episode is read verbatim from my book, "The Feeling Better: A Faith Based Approach to Overcome Your Gambling Addiction" which is available on Amazon.
In this episode I'll be covering the four Battle Plans from the tenth week of the "10-4" Program:
Battle Plan – The Enemy’s Playbook: (This Ruined Your Life) If you made it this far to the end of the book, thenyou’ve seen countless examples of me explaining that there is purpose for all of this. God doesn’t care about material things or money or man’s version of success. If this experience transformed your soul, then you won. If your addiction is bringing you closer to God, then you just hit the real lotto. You didn’t ruin your life. You changed the course of your future, and I know that course is a better one than before. Why? Because look at how much you’ve learned and understood these last ten weeks. That level of wisdom is rarely achieved by the average individual. Don’t believe for a moment that your life isn’t valuable to God. He picked you to be His perfect, completed 5-star general, His masterpiece, His chosen one. Now the only question is, what are you going to do with that?
Battle Plan – God’s Intel: (Life IS Eternal!) I talk about the special prize crowns that we’re eligible to receive as rewards in Heaven, when we finally meet God. One of those crowns is a special prize for keeping your eyes on the eternal life, waiting for Jesus to return. Can you see it coming? Look at the world around you, the increase in chaos, lawlessness, sin. God handpicked you to refine you like gold, holding you up to the fire so that you can shine and gleam and reflect His glory. You are going to inherit a huge jackpot. Want to visit Fiji? Watch tigers play in Malaysia? Visit other solar systems and galaxies? Have a listen to this episode. You’ll be amazed.
Battle Plan – Weaponry: (Remove the News) I don’t know about you, but the news was starting to mess with my head in very negative ways, distracting me from my mission at hand. Never before in history did humans have instantaneous and immediate access to headlines about violence, tragedy, suffering, catastrophe, war, murder, and injustice from around the world. Turn off your alerts. Stop reading the headlines and watching the news. You can’t change the outcome or the situation regarding any of it. Give your poor brain a break from the negativity.

Battle Plan – Armor: (Let Nature Be Your Guide) For the last 25 years of my life, I have relied on the outdoors to be my sanctuary, the place where I have the most direct connection to God. Whether it’s the trees, fresh air, sunshine, birds, or lack of modern noise and sound, I don’t know. Every living being gives off vibrations, and we know that all of creation sings the glory of God. Don’t worship the creation, but rather, get outside and find your sanctuary where you can worship the Creator. Just try it. Make a plan to visit somewhere new that may just be the spark of a new passion.
