What if the biggest thing holding you back isn’t what’s happening

around you, but what you’re unable or unwilling to see?

Sometimes we get so focused on our circumstances, past experiences,

fears, and frustrations that we develop tunnel vision. We see what’s

wrong, what’s missing, and what hasn’t changed, but lose sight of what

God is trying to show us.

And the longer we live that way, the easier it becomes to mistake

being stuck for simply being who we are.

In Take the Blinders Off, Nycia Emerson challenges us to examine the

things that may be limiting our spiritual growth and keeping us from

experiencing the fullness of God.

Drawing from Ephesians 4 and other passages of Scripture, Nycia

explores how fear, pride, worldly thinking, unforgiveness, and a lack

of understanding of God’s Word can distort our perspective and keep us

from moving forward.

But here’s the uncomfortable question: What if you’ve been asking God

to change your circumstances while He’s been asking you to change your

perspective?

Sometimes growth requires us to confront uncomfortable truths, release

old hurts, question beliefs we’ve never examined, and become willing

to see things differently.

God isn’t calling you to remain stuck in the same patterns, carrying

the same offenses, or allowing the chaos around you to determine the

direction of your life.

He’s inviting you into something deeper: a relationship with Him that

transforms how you think, what you believe, and how you live.

This message will challenge you to ask yourself three important questions:

Where have I stopped growing? What do I already know I need to do but

keep putting off? And what blinders need to come off?

You can’t move forward into what God has for you while refusing to see

what’s keeping you where you are.

It’s time to take the blinders off.
