Break the Attitude barriers …..Then the priorities will come
I’m not ashamed to own my Lord
Nor to defend his cause
Maintain the honor of his word
The glory of the cross
At the cross, at the cross
Where I first saw the light
And the burden of my heart, Rolled away
It was there by faith, I received my Lord
And now I am happy all the day

BREAKING THE ATTITUDE BARRIERS VIDEO 1 - Jump1/14
“Forty years old was I when Moses the servant of the Lord sent me … to spy out the land; and I brought him word again as it was in mine heart.
“Nevertheless my brethren that went up with me made the heart of the people melt: but I wholly followed the Lord my God.
“And now, behold, the Lord hath kept me alive, as he said, these forty and five years, even since the Lord spake this word unto Moses, while the
children of Israel wandered in the wilderness: and now, lo, I am this day fourscore and five years old.
“As yet I am as strong this day as I was in the day that Moses sent me [at least in the spirit of the gospel and its call and needs]: as my strength was then, even so is my strength now, … both to go out, and to come in” (Josh.
14:7–8, 10–11).
SAID CALEB, NOW AT 85 YEARS, “GIVE ME THIS MOUNTAIN” (Josh. 14:12).

THEME VERSES 2
LUKE 4 18-19
The spirit of the Lord is upon me to preach the gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to heal the broken-hearted, to preach deliverance to the captives; and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised. To preach the acceptable year of the Lord
ROMANS 10:14
How then shall they call on him in whom they have not believed? And How shall they believe in him of whom they have not heard? and how shall they hear without a preacher
