Fillers ( 2 of 4)
Series: More Than Enough
Lenny Ports
Revelation 4:1
In this series More than Enough, we want to ask ourselves, ''what are we filling our lives with? We want to be filled with Jesus. He is more than enough. Everything else is a substitute or a counterfeit, or a thief seeking to steal that which God desires to give us, or fillers which are those things that are attempting to push Jesus out.

The same is true with us. We must ascend in prayer and praise to that higher place to get perspective on where the enemy's attack is, to see where there might be a formation and positioning of enemy forces at work to try to attack us in certain weak areas of our lives.
FLESH
The 5 senses are the gateway to the mind. What we take in affects our lives every day. The issue lies in the place when we aren't careful what we allow through the gateway of the senses. For instance, Jesus said in Luke 11 (AMP),
33 ''No one lights a lamp and then puts it in a cellar nor under a basket [hiding the light], but [instead it is put] on the lampstand, so that those who co ...
