Wrestling Your Way to a New Place with God

  • Personal Notes based on the message Wrestling Your Way to a New Place with God by Beth Moore

“Through the worst of our struggles, it will be through wrestling the hardest things we ever go through in life—wrestling those things out with God—that we come out on the other side walking in our identity.”—Beth Moore

1.) To A New Kind of Courage

2.) To A New Kind of Intimacy Ps. 62:8

3.) To A New Kind of Identity Gen. 32:26-27

  • What’s your name? Jacob – supplanter, heal grabber, cheater, deceiver
  • Israel – struggler with God (intamacy)
  • He wanted him to say his name so He could change it.
  • Not with people—with God
  • Not about ever doubting, but coming out with twice the faith in God
  • To him that overcomes Rev. 2:17
  • Those places between just you and God where He renames you and only you can understand
  • He sees you for what He’s making you, not who you are today.

4.) To A New Kind of Walk (Gen. 32-33) – overcome with a limp from struggling/wrestling with God.

  • Injured – by wounds we are healed
  • When you hold on to Jesus, you cannot be defeated.
  • You may be wounded, but you will find He is huge—He is faithful!
