“THE POWER TO HEAL YOUR NEEDS”
Do You, Your Spouse, Your Children have needs and things going on that you just don’t understand? Do they keep you up at night or plague your day. Have you considered the possibility that God is trying to talk to you? Maybe you’re going down a road that does not have a pleasurable ending?
Whether it is financial, relational, physical, mental, emotional or spiritual….God cares and has a plan for you and your life!
God Promises us new life and New Ways to live, (If we will follow His plan)
Over the Years, Wendy and I have ministered to thousands of people in many different settings. We have found that people who are willing to be open and honest in their need before the Lord, they receive healing and restoration in their lives so much easier. They allow the Lord to release them in sensitive areas that would normally be closed off.
God is eager and more than willing to restore the individual as He knows their need before they even ask.
The closer we get to God in our life changes, healing happens for the better.
Romans 3:22 to 24
This righteousness from God comes through faith in Jesus Christ to all who believe. There is no difference. It is for everybody who will trust Him.
For all have sinned and fall short of the Glory of God. They are justified freely by His Grace through the redemption that came by Christ Jesus
SO WHAT IS THE PROBLEM?
IT’s Temptation and Sin
When Temptation comes, and we slip to its enticement, there is a way out again, if we choose to follow God’s direction and His Word.
1 Corinthians 10:13 No temptation has overtaken you except what is common to mankind. And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that you can endure it.
But what if we allow (give authority over to this sin), what happens?
We open the door to Sin and “technically allow” the Enemies attack. We create what I call “Pathways” sometimes willingly and unknowing it allows the enemy a foothold in our lives.
“Inroads” are created and allow access to our being. These pathways open because we sin and go against God’s plan and desire for our lives.
These “Pathways” allow the enemy access and the issues overcome us. It begins to consume us and takes all our focus. It is an open invitation to cause destruction and disrupts our lives.
HOW DO WE CHANGE THIS?
Here is what the Instruction manual (The Bible) tells us.
Ephesians 6:10 to 18
6:10 Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power.
6:11 Put on the full armor of God so that you can take your stand against the devil's schemes
6:12 For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.
6:13 Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand.
6:14 Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place,
6:15 and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace.
6:16 In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one.
6:17 Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.
6:18 And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the saints.
IF we yield, to or allow the access points in our lives – “chaos” happens.
We give over access to our lives by the opening pathways or access point in our armor. The “in-roads” are a “legal way” the enemy can harass and afflict us without us even realizing it.
HOW CAN THE ENEMY DO THAT?
An example for our understanding.
Authority - the right to act out specific behavior to accomplish an activity as it has been delegated. A police officer has the delegated authority from the government or agency to carry out the enforcement and application of the established laws and they are empowered to carry that out those laws and activities of the citizens in that city, county, or state.
They cannot act on their own but carry out the responsibility and authority they have been entrusted with.
Citizens are expected to respect and honor the delegated authority and comply with those authorized actions.
The officer has a jurisdiction boundary to that authority as given by the authorizing agency that oversees them.
They must comply with that delegated authority.
In Our Lives whether we abide by this authority or not – It is there and it controls the situations around us and in us.
Here is the truth and how it surrounds us.
The Kingdom of God – Is the rule and reign of God in our existence
The kingdom of darkness - is real and exists around us whether we understand or acknowledge it is real or not.
OUR AUTHORITY
We live in a war between Good and evil. Jesus Christ settled that war on Calvary, and He alone has the full judgement of right and wrong. While awaiting His return to gather the people of His Kingdom he sits on the throne of Judgement next to His Father.
Jesus has given us (as believers) the authority and power by the Holy Spirit for confront these dark forces and evildoers with His Word and His power. Just like the policeman in our example. (Matthew 28:18 to 20)
Every Believer and Disciple of the Lord’s has this authority and commission to carry out.
We can and are authorized to cast out these dark, evil spirits, break the hold and power they have “technically exerted” in a person’s life.
WE CAN TAKE THAT AUTHORITY BACK
We can break the control and effect in the believer's life. The result is freedom and life in Jesus and His Kingdom. Restoration comes freedom comes. We can break the power of addictions, compulsions and other evil bondages and hidden sin. We all have that calling on us as Jesus' followers.
IT STARTS WITH REPENTANCE
Forgiveness and Unforgiveness is the key – Forgiving others and yourself for issues and situations that have happened in the past. It is time to let that all go.
Releasing Unforgiveness in your heart and allowing God to heal that hurt takes away the legal right these bondages use – you will experience freedom and peace and proper life in God’s Kingdom.
HOW DO WE HELP THE AFFLICTED?
We need to take back the space that these trespassing spirits and sin has occupied. The occupation in these areas of our life needs to be reclaimed for God. The bondage and sinful behavior must go that has found a place in that person’s life.
In our Prayers and Ministry, the Holy Spirit is our guide in searching out, discovering and e free from that behavior.
Jesus has paid the price for everything – let Him have all the things that hold you back in life and hold you back in being the true loving person you are and enter God’s mercy and rest He has for you.
YOU HAVE A CHOICE – Choose to be free from it - DON’T LET THAT BONDAGE HOLD YOU DOWN ANYMORE.
OUR FREE WILL CHOICE:
Out of God's great love for his children, he decided to give us free will so that our love for him would be real, not programmed. But you have to make the choice to let Him have the hurts, the fears and worry.
IT TAKES TRUST
God created humanity in the image of God and called them to partner with him in expanding his creation. But partnership requires trust, so God gave humanity the freedom to make their own choices. Sadly, the first humans made the choice to trust their own wisdom over God's.
Praying for God's miracles to set you free - it requires you to Trust Him and Allow Him to have those blocks, things and issues in your life.
With God - Nothing is Impossible!
So how do people become consumed under the devil’s plan?
Thru sin, hurt, unforgiveness and disobedience to God’s Word.
We do what Ephesians tells us to do – put on the full armor of God for His people
Realize the deep hurts and wounding in our Emotions, our relationships, our experiences can and usually are very damaging to our spirit.
God has made a way to rid all the darkness, if we will simply yield to HIS Spirit and direction.
When you are lost in what to do – God is fully capable and ready to guide you.
IN YOUR LIFE, HERE IS A GREAT WAY TO CHOOSE THE RIGHT PATH.
