Manage episode 484414949 series 3656592
What if the very thing you're clinging to is the thing that’s controlling you?
In this raw and unfiltered episode of Rooted & Recovered, Dan and Justin walk through Step Seven of the 12-Step journey: “We humbly asked Him to remove our shortcomings.”
This is the line in the sand, the moment where faith gets real. It’s not about just asking God to help—you’re asking Him to take it for real. This is the step where you stop bargaining and start breaking free, where survival strategies are replaced with true surrender, and where the posture of humility unlocks real transformation.
Key Highlights:
- What you cling to is what controls you
- Control is a prison disguised as protection
- Humility isn’t a feeling—it’s a choice to let go
- Why some people choose to limp through life instead of walking in freedom
- Paul’s thorn and the power of God’s sufficient grace (2 Corinthians 12:9)
- Why healing doesn’t start when the pain goes away, but when control does
Scriptures Covered:
1 Peter 5:6-7 • 2 Corinthians 12:9-10 • Isaiah 6:5-8 • Romans 12:2 • Matthew 11:28-30
Final Truth:
Real freedom begins when you stop managing the chaos and let go for real. It’s not about earning your healing—it’s about trusting that God is already enough.
