Graham Cooke closes out this opening session with a vision of inner territory reclaimed, of peace as a force that destroys the enemy, and of being so captivated by Jesus that we can never find our way back to old mindsets. The session ends with a prayer that's worth playing on repeat — a Narnia-themed declaration of full immersion in the Kingdom. Key Scriptures: + John 14:6. "Jesus said to him, 'I am the way, and the truth, and the life.'" + 2 Corinthians 10:4. "For the weapons of our warfare are not of the flesh, but divinely powerful for the destruction of fortresses." + Romans 12:21. "Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good." + Psalm 16:11. "In Your presence is fullness of joy; in Your right hand there are pleasures forever."
