There are several references in the Word of God to 'shaking something off'. We are told to shake the dust off our feet. We read of Peter shaking a snake off his hand. By principle, we are taught to shake things off! Remove their influence from our lives! Shortcomings! Religion! Heaviness! Both external and internal things must be shaken off to leave us free to pursue the things of God in our lives! This message will give you the necessary tools to help you shake off the things that hinder your progress in God!
In what we know as the 'faith' chapter, Hebrews 11, it describes the fanatical ... beyond the normal ... outside the usual ... faith that these men and women exhibited in the face of great adversity. One of those men mentioned in this passage is Noah, indeed a man of fanatical faith! It is because of his fanatical faith that he survived one of the most incredible destructions of the known world at that time. If we follow his example, we will survive the floods that come against us with that same fanatical faith!

John 15:16 says, "Ye have not chosen me, but I have chosen you, and ordained you, that ye should go and bring forth fruit, and that your fruit should remain: that whatsoever ye shall ask of the Father in my name, he may give it you." It is a wonderful thing to know that we are ordained to bring forth fruit that remains! It is great to know that whatever we ask of our Father in Jesus' name, He will give it to us! But it all begins with LOVE ... obedience to John 15:12 will cause John 15:16 to come to pass!

We all have a comfort zone where we like to live, but many times our miracle and breakthrough requires our flesh to be made uncomfortable. It is through this time of being made uncomfortable that our faith is fully on Jesus and we are now positioned for our miracle.

If you have lived for God any time at all, you understand the feeling of wanting to do what is right and fulfill the word of God, but still at times failing God. Your flesh and your faith are battling continually. Our main goal in our walk with God is to crucify the flesh daily and keep the Spirit stirred up.
