Growing Your Relational Hedge (3 of 5)
Series: Hedges - Growing Strategic Spiritual Hedges
Frank Damazio
Introduction: We are making progress as we see the absolute importance of growing our strategic spiritual hedges around our lives. The hedge is something we are responsible to grow. We understand the world, the flesh, and the devil are continually, persistently seeking to break our hedge down and find a way to destroy our life and others around us. We are committed to growing strong, powerful hedges right now and ongoing in our life. We will not be like the slothful man mentioned in Proverbs who neglects the hedge and invites trouble. Job had built a hedge around his "household," around his home, and all connected to him. It was a hedge around his possessions and a favor hedge.
