Healing The Heart of The Church: Overcoming Bitterness & Disappointment // Tirsha Thornbury

Bill Johnson recently spoke about how bitterness and an inability to overcome disappointment are crippling the church. Disappointment can prevent us from being trusted with God's promises. Good soil allows for the growth of good seeds, but it also makes it easy for weeds like bitterness and disappointment to grow. We must be vigilant in uprooting these weeds to ensure they don't choke out the good things God is growing in our lives.
Sin is more than just a moral failing; it's anything that distorts our ability to see, know, and reflect Jesus. The first mention of sin in the Bible describes it as a beast crouching at the door, ready to overtake us. There are various Greek words for sin, each highlighting different aspects of how we miss the mark. Whether it's through ignorance, willful disobedience, or falling down when we should be standing, sin distorts our reflection of Jesus.
The solution to overcoming sin and spiritual warfare is to confess, repent, receive forgiveness, and release our expectations. Confession helps us acknowledge our struggles, repentance changes our mindset, and forgiveness releases us from bondage. Finally, releasing our expectations allows us to trust God fully, even when things don't go as planned.
