-
Well, I'm Pastor Eng and it is always an honor to minister.
-
I'm so thankful, we Pastor Mike and I are associate pastors and
-
we started coming here about last week.
-
Now I'm just kidding. We've been here for a while and
-
and I can truly say, you know, that our pastors are senior
-
pastors, are they are Shepherds after his heart and we are
-
grateful for that and we thank God.
-
God for them. They're in India right now, with
-
a team and, and I got a text last night from Pastor Marcy,
-
that 15 women got born again and that there are miracles happen
-
now, I'm sure. There's more than that that's
-
even happened. She just happened to put that on
-
our thread. We haven't stayed totally in
-
touch with what's happening other than through Facebook, but
-
there are Mighty things happening while they're there.
-
And, and, and that is our mandate is to take the the
-
kingdom of God. The word of God.
-
Bind to other nations to the Caribbean and Beyond.
-
And so I we're thankful that they can go and they have, you
-
know, trained and built us up. You know, as staff and that
-
there's an anointing in all of our Lives.
-
All of our Lives, you know, to have a place in the body and to
-
step into our fit in the body. So this morning, I'm going to
-
minister to you on healing the Brokenhearted and that's
-
something that That I knew when I was going to minister that God
-
wanted me to go in that direction and been meditating on
-
that, from that point until today.
-
And so, I believe not only will it set you free and, and help
-
you unlock some things in your heart, but also puts you in a
-
position to help others, you know, the body of Christ.
-
We're supposed to Bear one another's burdens.
-
That's what we're supposed to do.
-
And if we as a church body, can be whole ourselves and be
-
complete ourselves. Then then we can have the right
-
discernment when we're ministering others to to others
-
to say they're broken. Hearted, there's an issue there.
-
And and I have words of life, I am, I am that tree that bears
-
fruit. That's planted By the Waters, I
-
can give them life. We can all do that.
-
We don't always have to stem them here to the church for
-
Council and that's necessary sometimes but it's in you it's
-
in us but we want to First make sure that we're allowing God to
-
penetrate and to deal with every part of us.
-
So so let's talk about him this morning.
-
We're going to start in Exodus chapter 15, if you want to turn
Exodus 15 chapter mention
-
there and in Exodus, chapter 15 is the first place where God
Exodus 15 chapter mention
-
introduces Deuces himself as Jehovah Rapha.
-
Jehovah, Rapha and Jehovah, Rapha means, I am the Lord, who
-
heals, I'm the Lord, who cures, I'm the Lord, Who restores and
-
the Lord who completes and makes you whole that's Jehovah-jireh.
-
That's note. He is Jehovah Jireh to, that's
-
Jehovah Rapha. He can provide your needs to
-
trust me, but but in Exodus, 15:26, this is R.
-
He says that not only does he say for an isolated incident
-
that that I'll heal you. You know, if you come against
-
sickness or if you come against anything in your life that I'll
-
heal you. But no, he's saying I am
-
healing. I am your health, I am your
-
wholeness, I am your cure, he is that for us.
-
So let's go to Exodus chapter 15, listen, this Jehovah Rapha,
Exodus 15 chapter mention
-
when we think of this automatically, if you've been in
-
the church for any length of time, you you think of you
-
relate, Jehovah Rapha to physical healing and he is that,
-
and he does do that. But but even in In this, this
-
writing here he's addressing the issue of their hearts and he's
-
not just the Healer of your physical man.
-
But the Bible tells us that he's the Healer of your heart that he
-
wants to, mend and heal those broken places on the inside of
-
you. So, when we're emotionally
-
overwhelmed, depressed, anxious grieving hurt or bitter.
-
God is the one who heals that. And only he can do it only he
-
can bring healing for a broken heart.
-
Only, he can give you Joy for mourning only, he can do that.
-
A Garment of Praise for a spirit of heaviness only God can do
-
that. So Exodus chapter 15, it says,
Exodus 15 chapter mention
-
now, the setting here is that Moses had just LED them out of
-
Egypt and they had just crossed the Red Sea.
-
Now, Egypt is a type of the world, and the Red Sea is a type
-
of us being born again. And so he had I'd just LED them
-
out and now they were in slavery, complete bondage and he
-
had just LED them out now, they began to rejoice in to sing in
-
Exodus 15. It says in Moses and the
-
children of Israel sang, this song to the Lord and spoke
-
saying I will sing to the Lord. For he has, triumphed gloriously
-
the horse, and it's Rider. He has thrown into the sea, the
-
Lord is my strength and my song, and he has become my salvation.
-
He is my God. And I will praise him, my
-
father's God and I will exalt him.
-
And if you continue to read and go down, it is consistent
-
praising and thanking him for that.
-
But now jump down to verse 20. It says then Miriam the
-
prophetess, the sister of Aaron, took the timbrel in her hand and
-
all the women went out after her with timbrels and with dances
-
and Miriam answered them seem to the Lord for he has triumphed
-
gloriously. A ously the horse and it's
-
Rider. He has thrown into the sea.
-
So Moses brought Israel from the Red Sea.
-
Then they went out into the Wilderness of shur and they went
-
three days in the wilderness and found no water, three days in
-
the desert, in the wilderness and found no water.
-
Now we're going to see what's in these people began to come out.
-
Now when they came Tamara, they could not drink the Waters of
-
marah for they were bitter. This is, this is a picture.
-
Sure of their hearts therefore the name of it was called Maria.
-
Now, Mara means bitter, angry, discontented and heavy, bitter,
-
angry, discontented, and heavy verse 24 says, and the people
-
complained against Moses saying, what shall we drink?
-
So he cried out to the Lord and the Lord showed him a tree,
-
y'all are trees telling you when he cast it into the water, the
-
water. Waters were made sweet.
-
There were made made a statue there.
-
He made a statute and an ordinance for them.
-
And their, he tested them and said, if you diligently heed the
-
voice of the Lord your God and do what is right in his sight.
-
Give ear to his Commandments and keep all his statutes.
-
I will put none of the diseases on you which I have brought on
-
the Egyptians for. I am the Lord who heals you,
-
Jehovah Rapha the first time. He's mentioned it right there.
-
Then they came to elim were there were 12 Wells of water and
-
70 palm trees so they camped there by the waters.
-
Now, this Wilderness is a place of Mara where there was Bitter
-
Water, this Wilderness at time, you know, they're their Trek to
-
the promised land was an eleven-day journey, and it took
-
them 40 years and and many, many, many Believers are in this
-
position. I'm, I'm born again.
-
I'm going to heaven. Jesus lives in my heart, but
-
then, when God wants to touch him.
-
When, when, when we've got two right here, where it says, if
-
if, if you'll diligently heed the voice of the Lord your God,
-
and you'll do all his statutes. If you will, when it's time for
-
us to, if you will, when it's time for us to allow him to
-
touch, When it's time for him to allow us, you know, allow him to
-
deal with those those things that are uncomfortable,
-
sometimes, then it is easier for us to keep our Wilderness
-
thinking and and go ahead and take us 40 years around the same
-
mountains that we've been going around year after year, after
-
year. After year, the same
-
strongholds, the same ways of thinking God wants us free, he
-
wants us whole. He is your healer.
-
Listen, he didn't set you free and get you born again and then
-
say, now, I need you to go see a psychologist because you got
-
issues. Know, the scripture actually
-
says, out of the heart out of the heart are the issues of
-
life. Out of the hearts.
-
So now that you're born again. Now, that that you're in the
-
kingdom of God, he says, now, let me mend, you Now that me
-
touch you. Now let me heal and form this
-
morning, I was looking back you know really on his faithfulness
-
in my own life and looking back where, you know, I wasn't
-
married to Pastor Mike at the time.
-
I did not know anybody when I went to Rhema.
-
I did not have anybody, that was, you know, like right there
-
a pastor, Right By My Side to say, girl, you got issues you
-
need to deal with this. You need to let go.
-
I touched it. I didn't have that, but God led
-
me. He led me through the desert.
-
He led me through the Wilderness and that's why I say you guys
-
wear your, we're so blessed. You get the, the fullness of the
-
word, the teaching of God, the move of the Holy Ghost here, and
-
there's no reason that we ought not to be coming out of the
-
wilderness. There's no reason that we ought
-
not to be transformed in our, in our minds and be free.
-
Does he care about your emotions?
-
He does if he didn't, he wouldn't promise to give you Joy
-
and promise to give you peace. Now, those are not just merely
-
emotions. We know that they are a
-
spiritual force, their thus, the fruits of the spirit that are
-
within you, but if you've got issues and in your heart, you're
-
going to reject them. You're going to be hardened,
-
you're going to be calloused. And when God's trying to get you
-
in the joy of the Lord and the peace that surpasses all
-
understanding, you're not ready for it.
-
And you don't want it because you want to hold on to the that
-
hurt and that pain, and that somebody did me wrong.
-
And and someone that broke my heart.
-
Listen, your parents. And your upbringing is the the
-
number. One reason why people have
-
issues in the heart and that was the devil's tactic from the
-
beginning is to destroy the family.
-
And that's why in Malachi says, why did I make them one?
-
Why did I make marriage one for Godly offspring?
-
So, if he can keep the marriages from being one, if he can keep
-
the husbands and wives broken themselves, even if they stay
-
together, then then The Godly Offspring is greatly affected
-
and the end their, their, their love tanks are not full and
-
they're, they're not confident in who they are in Christ.
-
And so God wants us to be whole us to be complete.
-
He's Jehovah Rapha the Lord. That heals the law.
-
Lord that restores. Okay, Hallelujah.
-
So the bitter water. Here was a reflection of their
-
hearts. I didn't know what to title this
-
but I said from bitter too, sweet.
-
Because we're going to not only go from bitter too sweet but we
-
need to help other people go from bitter too.
-
Sweet and their lives. So first Peter 3, let me just
-
mention this. It says, it says I About your
-
hardest. What is the heart?
-
It's the hidden man that it's a very center of your being.
-
It is your spirit. It is if you look it up in many
-
places that says the very seat of your emotions in your
-
passions and your desires, it's different from the soul realm.
-
The scripture says, the Bible separates Soul and Spirit joints
-
and Marrow, but it does encompass your soul.
-
Everything that happens in your spirit is affecting your the The
-
way you think and your soul round.
-
So when we're talking about the heart, when God's talking about
-
the heart, this is the very core of you.
-
This is the real, you the real, the real man, you are a spirit.
-
You have a soul and you live in a body.
-
And so God wants to deal, you know, the Bible talks about men,
-
having a strong Spirit or or when a spirit is weak, it will
-
fail them in cygnus God wants you to be strong in your heart.
-
Strong in your spirit, man. Strong From the Inside Out.
-
Not just coming here and being in a position to to why do I go
-
to church? I'm here.
-
I'm right. Listen, before you go ahead and
-
say I'm good before you do that. I'm just asking you to please be
-
like David. Because the Bible says that
-
David was a man after God's heart and the scripture
-
continually in Psalms he is constantly saying God search me
-
God, no, my anxieties and know my thoughts and know my heart
-
and lured. See if there is any offensive
-
way in me and Lead Me in the way Everlasting, David was always
-
doing that. Now, we have a, this life of
-
faith. Earth where we stand and we
-
believe and we speak. And we do that.
-
But it does not mean that you can't cry out to God.
-
You can he is your father He's your father, his mercies are new
-
Every Morning. The scripture says and like
-
David we can say God you see My Heart Lord you know that that my
-
heart is hurting in that area. Father I'm opening my heart to
-
you, touch it, mended I forgive. I release my faith now I'm
-
trusting you to heal. I'm trusting you to men many
-
times we as Believers will. Yeah, I forgave, I did.
-
I forgave and that's good. You spoke it and you forgave by
-
faith. Most likely because your
-
emotions were I forgive your emotions.
-
May not have been there at all, but your job is to forgive by
-
faith and then stay God. Now, you heal, you meant, you
-
restore my heart. You know what's going on in my
-
heart? Because it's only going to hurt
-
you. It's only going to eventually
-
kill you and affect your body. Okay, I'm getting ahead of
-
myself so because because the heart is the root of the
-
problem. The scripture says in Jeremiah,
-
we're going to read it in a minute that the heart is
-
deceitful above all things and desperately wicked.
-
You know, it says that about the heart, but then he says, but I
-
the Lord, don't worry, I the Lord search the heart.
-
No worries. He'll help you, he's the one who
-
will guide you, he's the one I look back.
-
Back on my path of healing. And it was just the Holy Ghost
-
when I when I you know, put the joint down and said here I am
-
then then he said for me to go to, I knew there was a Bible
-
bookstore in our town. I went there, I found a, it was
-
a Kenneth Copeland who I didn't even know who that was at
-
Kenneth, Copeland devotional that was called from Faith to
-
Faith and he said, get that one. I just knew I just knew and I
-
was just learning how to hear him.
-
You know, it just seemed right. It just what you know and when
-
we were at Rhema he called it your seamer just seems right,
-
just seems right. So I seemed right for me to get
-
that. I went home, I found my Bible
-
and I pulled out this Faith to Faith devotional and just day by
-
day, day by day, day by day, just read it.
-
And just just let the word wash me and that's what it'll do.
-
It'll wash you. And to think let me go back
-
because I was saying, if you think you're good, please be
-
like David this this process will never end and you can
-
rejoice in it because it's not laborious.
-
The scripture says his yoke is easy and his burden is light, so
-
I'll allow him. You know, is once you've been
-
delivered and once you, you know, he's set you free and
-
you've tasted. I'm telling you, once you Have
-
been delivered from some things that that was was not good at
-
once you've been delivered and he set your feet on Solid Ground
-
and you've tasted and you've seen that the Lord is good.
-
You don't want to go back. So I would say to you if you
-
haven't tasted and there's not something in you.
-
That knows he's my only thing. He's My All In.
-
All I can't live without him. I can't breathe without him.
-
I can't do anything without it, if you're not in that.
-
A position then. I asked you to search your
-
heart, because maybe there's a little area of Pride there,
-
because the scripture says, the man who trusts in his own heart,
-
as a fool. It's a fool, so don't trust in
-
your own heart. But trust your God.
-
Who knows your heart? To minister to heal and to mend,
-
amen. So your heart is a field.
-
It's a field where the seed is, sown the seed of the word, you
-
know, he says I'm going to write the law in their hearts.
-
I'm going to put it in their hearts.
-
Let me go to you at Matthew Chapter 13 real quick.
Matthew 13 chapter mention
-
This, the parable of the sower it says on the same day Jesus
-
went out of the house and sat by the Sea and the great multitudes
-
were gathered together to him so that he got into a boat and sat
-
and the whole multitude stood on the shore.
-
Then he spoke many things to them in Parables saying, behold
-
A sower went out to sow and as he sowed some seeds fell by the
-
wayside and the birds came and devoured them devoured.
-
Them some fell on Stony places. This is, these are pictures of
-
our hearts where they did not have much Earth and they emit
-
immediately sprang up because they had no depth of Earth.
-
But when the sun was up and they were scorched they and because
-
they had no root, they withered away and some fell among thorns
-
and the Thorns sprung up and choked them.
-
But others fell on, good ground and yielded, a crop, some
-
hundredfold, some sixty, some Thirty, he who has ears, let him
-
hear. And the disciples came and said
-
to him, why do you speak to them in Parables and he answered and
-
he said to them because it has been given to you to know the
-
mysteries of the Kingdom. Mm of heaven, but to them, it
-
has not been given for whoever has to him, it more will be
-
given and he will have an abundance, but whoever does not
-
have to him more, will be get, whoever does not have even what
-
he has will be taken from him. Therefore, I speak to them in
-
Parables because seeing they do not.
-
Now, listen to this, I speak to them in Parables Parables,
-
because seeing they do not see, and hearing, they do not hear,
-
nor do they understand and And in them, the prophecy of Isaiah
-
is to fill, which says hearing you will hear and shall not
-
understand and seeing you will see and not perceive listen to
-
verse 15 for the hearts of his people have grown dull.
-
The hearts of his people have grown dull, their ears are hard
-
of hearing and their eyes, they have closed.
-
This is his people, the hearts of his people have grown dull,
-
the ears are hard to are hard of hearing and the eyes they have
-
closed lest they should see with their eyes and hear with their
-
ears lest they should understand with their hearts turn so that I
-
should heal them. M.
-
And with their hearts turn so that I should heal them many
-
times we as Believers have learned to cope.
-
We have learned to suppress. Our emotions we've learned to
-
cover over our hearts in ways that we don't want God to touch.
-
And to, to, to minister to does he understand, does he see,
-
does? He know, he does.
-
And thank God, he went through it, so that you could be free
-
from it, Isaiah 53, Verses 4, and 5.
-
It says he was despised. That means he was counted as
-
worthless. He was despised and rejected a
-
Man of Sorrows acquainted with deepest grief, deepest grief,
-
There's no grief that he can't touch.
-
We turned our backs on him and look the other way.
-
He was despised and we didn't care.
-
Yet, it was our weaknesses. He carried it was our
-
weaknesses. He carried, he's Jehovah Rapha.
-
It was our weaknesses. He carried, he carried your
-
weaknesses. It was our sorrows, our sorrows
-
that weighed him down our sicknesses and our sorrows in
-
our sadness. And we thought his troubles were
-
a punishment from God a punishment for his own sins but
-
he was pierced for our Rebellion crushed for our Our sins.
-
He was beaten so that we could be whole.
-
Remember, Jehovah? Rapha is wholeness completeness.
-
He was beaten so that we could be whole he was whipped so that
-
we could be healed. Spiritually, physically, and
-
emotionally in every Arena of your lives.
-
So then why are there so many Believers why?
-
Why are there so many Believers that steal?
-
You see them going around the same the same mountains.
-
They can come in here and and it's easy to come in here in
-
this atmosphere. For all of us.
-
I love the corporate anointing and you need the corporate
-
anointing. You need to be up underneath
-
this anointing and, and in this anointing bondages are broken.
-
It happens, and it's real. And there's a joy here and
-
there's a piece here, but we Hard not to be like Saul who had
-
David come and and play for him, because it caused the demons to
-
go away. But then when David left you
-
there, he was still in that same spot.
-
We can't come in here and be like saw and glory to God glory
-
glorious. Hallelujah.
-
You know, we're like song and I feel good and its presence and
-
he is mighty and he is awesome. Hallelujah, Glory Glory and then
-
you walk out of here and husband, I told you, you know,
-
or whatever. You know I mean there there's
-
anger in you. There's bitterness in, you
-
there's there's hurt and you there's Brokenness and you
-
there's there's things in you that God wants to touch.
-
He didn't want you to be Snappy and have ugly looks on your
-
faces. He doesn't want that.
-
We ought to have joy at home. We are to have peace at home.
-
I got sickles really tickled at my husband last night because we
-
were watching what he got. Tickled at me about something
-
too. But I don't tell mine all the
-
time we were watching, Remember the Titans.
-
And and at the at the end of a walk Amber what part it was.
-
But it They're going to state championship.
-
So, it wasn't when, you know, there was a sad part at all, it
-
was just a, you know, a motivational moment and I, he
-
was trying to talk. He was doing role play for the
-
girls while we were watching it. And so he was doing a roleplay,
-
no sun is low voice cracked and he and he was teary, he's guilty
-
right now, but he's he's so passionate about winning, you
-
know, it was a winning in the king.
-
Love God and he could coach a football team.
-
I'm telling you to and winning on the football field and it's
-
just seeing them, you know, it's just animate just you know, it's
-
just there and I just died because I love him.
-
I love that about him because I need that passion because
-
sometimes I'll be like, I'm not doing that today and, you know,
-
working out or whatever. And he helps me, he helps
-
strengthen me. And ants.
-
Come on, baby. You got this and he'll speak the
-
word to me and encouraged me as a coach.
-
He A good one, but but we need to have be able to laugh if I'm
-
locked up with him, then I wouldn't be laughing with him.
-
If he and I weren't. Okay.
-
Then I'd be like, what is wrong with you?
-
You know? But but you want to be right at
-
home and this is really relevant to whether you're married or
-
not. This is, are you right with God?
-
Are you right in your heart? Have you allowed him in those
-
secret places in the shower, when you washing your armpits,
-
have you allowed him to to wash you?
-
To touch you to minister to you. Because that you are, you are
-
told to be naked and not ashamed before him.
-
And that's not physically. But that is spiritually that we
-
are completely bare. He sees it all anyway, you can't
-
hide it from him. Psalms 147 3, Psalms 147. 3 says
-
he healeth the broken and heart. And bind us up their wounds or
-
he heals the Brokenhearted and binds up their wounds.
-
That word broken means broken down, crushed maimed, and it
-
means a shattered. Heart wounds means you've been
-
pained, hurt injured, you have sorrow.
-
You've got, you've been grieved. You're worried displeased hurt
-
along the lines, and some Ashen God desires to touch those
-
things. True, true change happens in the
-
heart. So how do we do this?
-
Psalms 139 verses, 23 and 24 again.
-
Search me thoroughly o God and know.
-
My heart. Try me and know, my thoughts and
-
see if there's any wicked or hurtful way in me and Lead Me in
-
the way Everlasting. Psalms 26 to says, examine Me O.
-
Lord and prove me test my Heart and my mind test my heart and my
-
mind, Psalms 51 6. It says behold you desire truth
-
in the inward parts and in the hidden part you'll make me to
-
know wisdom. You desire truth in the inward
-
Parts. Listen, if you allow the if you
-
allow God to touch you and Mandy I'm telling you only he can do
-
it and the whole that's why the Holy Ghost is here, that's why
-
he's here. He is the spirit of truth.
-
And the scripture says he searches And he knows the heart
-
of man and in 1st Corinthians it to a says, who knows that the
-
spirit of the man except the man, you know your heart.
-
You know what's in there and and allow God and I'm telling you it
-
is not always easy but as you grow with him you know that if I
-
don't deal with that, it is not good for me.
-
I will. I know I will shrink back.
-
I know, I will lose my joy. I know I will lose my peace.
-
I know that God's always wanting to deal right now.
-
God's ministering to administering to me about
-
something. I know, he's just tweaking, some
-
on the inside of it. I told my husband, there's
-
something here with this. I need to die.
-
Need to deal with that, and I want to deal with it.
-
I want him to I know where he's brought me from, and I had
-
nothing in me. Wants to go back and there's
-
nothing for you there. He has given you greatness and
-
and and provision and everything that he is Jehovah.
-
Jireh Jehovah, Nissi Jehovah, sick, canoe, Jehovah Rapha.
-
He's although he is everything that you need, everything that
-
you need. There is nothing that you need,
-
that he hasn't provided. The scripture says, he'll give
-
you everything you need for life and for godliness.
-
He'll give you everything you need.
-
So all you need is him. That's all we need is him.
-
Hallelujah. Okay.
-
Did I read Psalms 51 6? Yes, you desire.
-
Truth in the inward Parts. Jeremiah 17 verses 5 through 10.
-
It says thus says the Lord cursed is the man who trusts in
-
man and makes flesh his strength.
-
We just mentioned that whose heart departs from the Lord for
-
he shall be like a shrub in the desert and shall not see you
-
when good comes but shall inhabit.
-
The parts places in the wilderness and assault land
-
which is not inhabited. Blessed is the man though.
-
Hallelujah. Who trusts in the Lord and whose
-
hope is the Lord for he shall be you here you are this tree for
-
he shall be like a tree planted. Planted By the Waters which
-
spreads out its roots by the river and will not fear when
-
heat comes. Listen if you're if God is on
-
your side and and you're trusting in Him, truly from your
-
heart, there's no fear. God said he didn't give you a
-
spirit of fear and if you're made perfect in love, then you
-
won't have fear if you're made perfect in his love.
-
So it says this Is tree planted By the Waters which spreads its
-
roots out by the river and will not fear when he comes.
-
But it's Leaf will be green and will not be anxious in the year
-
of drought nor will cease nor will cease from yielding fruit.
-
We should never cease from yielding fruit.
-
The the scripture says, even in old age that will bear much
-
fruit, verse 9. The heart is deceitful above all
-
things, and desperately wicked, who can know it.
-
I The Lord search the heart. I test the mind even to give
-
every man, according to his ways, according to the fruit of
-
his doings, eventually, what's in your heart, out of the
-
abundance of the heart, the mouth speaks and out of the
-
treasure your heart. You're going to bear that fruit
-
eventually. What's in your heart will come
-
out? So, I'm 34 verse 17 and 18, says
-
the righteous cry out in the Lord hears.
-
And delivers them out of all their troubles.
-
He's Jehovah rough. It's not just physical healing.
-
He delivers you out of all of your troubles.
-
The Lord is near to those who have a broken heart and he saved
-
such that have a contrite spirit, he brings healing to the
-
bitter Waters, amen. Now, let me say this many
-
physical ailments are issues that we have physically are a
-
result of a broken heart. Many times, not always, there
-
are, there are two ways that the Devil comes to you and in one of
-
them is just by intrusion, you know, he's Diablo.
-
He just, he lb Z, lb Z lb, Z lb until he can get in.
-
And you, you could be dealing with sickness because it's an
-
attack and he's just trying to put cygnus on you or he's just
-
brought an attack of something. He's just trying to get into
-
your life, but your heart. Is good and right and you're
-
allowing God to deal with you, but the other way that he comes
-
is through legal grounds legal access, it's either intrusion,
-
he has no right. And we take dominion over him
-
and he has no place in. If you're sick, will lay hands
-
on you and you'll be healed and you can get in faith and get
-
healed yourself. If it's an attack, then get that
-
thing off of you. But if there's legal grounds,
-
that you've given him, then you better be like David and say,
-
God searched me. Now legal grounds can be there.
-
There's multiple things, it can be because you're living in sin.
-
That is an open door. It's an open door, it's legal
-
access for the devil to come in, and get a foothold, and he will,
-
and he'll take every opportunity.
-
He can so-so. You're living in sin and
-
Disobedience, you've given him legal access and that's why
-
things are consistently happening wrong.
-
Another way, that that he has legal access is through
-
unforgiveness. If there's unforgiveness in your
-
heart, you know, the scripture says forgive so that your father
-
in Heaven can forgive you. In Mark chapter 11, right?
Mark 11 chapter mention
-
Above that is where it says speak to the mountain, you know.
-
And command the This mountain to move and if you believe in your
-
heart and you say it with your mouth and you tell that mountain
-
to move that it has to move. And then right under it says,
-
now if you have unforgiveness I mean there's a reason that
-
scriptures there because some people like to just that I'm
-
going to speak to this mountain, has to move.
-
Hallelujah! And and they've got
-
unforgiveness in their heart and and many sicknesses are a result
-
of legal access. So sin and forgiveness,
-
emotional trauma, broken heartedness pain that has
-
happened, you know, from your childhood or, or something
-
that's happened along the way that they, that you have not
-
been healed of, and you continue to rehearse that thing and
-
rehearse, that thing, and rehearse that thing and you're
-
giving him legal access to continue to pour on the
-
depression. And Pour on the Brokenness and
-
pour on the hurt and he will, he will, he is constantly shooting
-
fiery darts, but if you're in right position, the Bible says,
-
you can extinguish all of them, every one of them.
-
So, Saint and forgiveness, emotional, trauma that God wants
-
to heal, I'm telling you and divorce is one.
-
Divorce, brings emotional hurt, and pain and Trauma to not only
-
the husband and wife, but the children, the the parents of the
-
the spouses, the the people that are friends around it brings
-
trauma, God wants to heal those things.
-
He desires to feel those things, another way that you could give
-
him legal access is through inner vows or judgments.
-
You know, the scripture says not to judge and not to We're but
-
let your yes. Be yes and your no be no but
-
what is that? I'll explain I'll give you a
-
personal example, an inner vow down a judgment, many of us do
-
this and and we don't realize until it's been enlightened to
-
us at. Wow, I've done that when I was
-
young and and my parents went through a divorce and I watched
-
my mom, you know, she really suffered daily with depression
-
and and different things. And, and in my heart I said
-
that'll never happen to me. No man will ever hurt me and
-
what that did was it built these huge walls up in my heart and it
-
caused me to respond fleshly from then on because I'll keep
-
my little distance. And any boy, I dated I dumped
-
them before they dumped me, that was for sure.
-
Because no, you don't think you're going to trim.
-
Upon my little achy breaky heart, I'll dump you.
-
I'll let you go before it happens.
-
So we build up these these fortresses, man, we build them
-
up because we've made an inner judgment that my, you know, I my
-
dad was an alcoholic, but my dad who, you know, if your dad was
-
alcoholic, I'll never do that. I hate him for that.
-
And then why do you see the same things happening?
-
Generationally Because not only is there unforgiveness but
-
they've made an inner judgment towards their father that they
-
haven't released and they haven't forgiven and it's huge.
-
And you you listen, this is not a, this is not a.
-
Let me go, you know, home and just get in sackcloth and Ashes
-
and is Wailing weep and God, I'm horrible but it is like David.
-
Just Trust the Holy Ghost and just always be in a position to
-
say, God, you see my heart. You'll show me.
-
I'm trusting you to heal and to mend, this is you God, I'm naked
-
before you. I do what you need to do.
-
I received the word I received the correction.
-
I receive those things that I know it's life to me.
-
So, so, sin and forgiveness, emotional trauma.
-
Broken heartedness inner vows and judgments and then
-
generational curses there are real thing and and and I'm not
-
trying to be super spiritual. But we we ought to know and be
-
aware not be ignorant of the devil's devices and the things
-
that he does. And there are generational
-
things that are that are passed down from the father's to the
-
children. And, and that's why we as
-
believers Believers need to be passing down the spiritual
-
Heritage to our kids because if not, you're passing something to
-
them, what is it? And if there's if the you have
-
any leading or any sense that there are, there has been a
-
generational curse that's that's happened, throughout your
-
family. And, and you see it happening
-
and your cousins and aunts. And, you know, all these people,
-
you see the same cycle, the same thing begin to buy.
-
That thing up for them but you the blood of Jesus, stop that
-
thing. It cut that thing off.
-
So don't continue to yield to those mindsets.
-
Don't continue to yield to those things on the inside.
-
So we either have allowed him to come in or it's just an attack
-
by the enemy. And that's why why are believers
-
sick and why when we're dealing with people with sickness or,
-
you know, when cancer comes, or when things come we have to
-
First examine, we just don't go running lay hands on them and
-
and you know, right it's first. What is the Holy Ghost saying
-
What is the Lord saying? Because he knows, he knows the
-
hearts of man. He knows what's in there.
-
And so I tell you don't just because you're you're a
-
born-again spirit filled believer and you're in a great
-
church. Don't just think I got this.
-
I'm good. You always always, always be in
-
a position to say, God, I trust you and I'm yielded to you and
-
he'll always lead. You always he'll always guide
-
you Proverbs 14. 30 says. As sound, heart is life to the
-
body. Hallelujah.
-
A sound. Heart is life to the body, but
-
Envy is rottenness to the bones. Let me read it into other
-
translations and New Living says, a peaceful heart leads to
-
a healthy body peaceful heart. Let me read it to you in the
-
Amplified a calm and undisturbed mind and heart are the life and
-
health of the body. But Envy jealousy and wrath are
-
like rottenness of the bones. He's Jehovah Rapha.
-
We've got allow him to set us free and Deliver us in our
-
hearts. That word sound, a sound heart
-
means a healthy, heart, a cured heart, as sound and complete
-
heart. I read, I quoted this to you.
-
I just have a couple of scriptures to and I quote of
-
this to you, but let me read it. Corinthians chapter 2 verses 9
-
through 12 says but as it is written Eye Has Not Seen Nor Ear
-
heard nor have entered into the heart of man, the things which
-
God has prepared for those who love him.
-
But God has revealed them to us by his Spirit.
-
Listen for the spirit searches all things.
-
Yes, the Deep things of God for what man knows the things of the
-
man, except the spirit of the man.
-
Man that is in him even so no one knows the things of God,
-
except the spirit of God. Now we have received not the
-
spirit of the world but the spirit who is from God that we
-
might know the things that have been freely given to us by the
-
Lord. You know, the scripture says
-
where the spirit of the Lord is there's liberty, there's
-
Freedom. So I say to you and I'm going to
-
I'm going to close with Isaiah 61 Chelsea if you want to come
-
and maybe a couple more after that.
-
I say this to you if you will not be like the scripture that
-
says they have a form of godliness but denying the power
-
thereof. There are many, many, many to
-
many that have a form of godliness.
-
And and think more about their Ministry or their how spiritual
-
they are, then allowing the power.
-
The same power that raised Christ from the dead to heal and
-
to minister and to touch their hearts.
-
Isaiah 61 says The spirit of the Lord God is upon me.
-
Now, this is talking about Jesus, but it also is for us.
-
And for us in ministering to others, the spirit of the Lord
-
God is upon me because the Lord has anointed me to preach Good,
-
Tidings to the poor. He has sent me.
-
Listen to this. He has sent me to heal, the
-
brokenhearted to Proclaim Liberty to the captives and the
-
open opening of the prison to those who are bound to Proclaim.
-
I'm the acceptable year of the Lord, the day of Vengeance of
-
our God, to comfort all who mourn to comfort, all who mourn
-
to console those who mourn in Zion to give them Beauty for
-
Ashes. The oil of joy, for mourning,
-
the Garment of Praise for a spirit of heaviness.
-
Man, I implore you today, if you have heaviness He wants to give
-
you a spirit of praise for that that they may be called Trees of
-
Righteousness. The planting of the Lord, that
-
he may be glorified. Let me read in the Amplified,
-
the spirit of the Lord, God is upon me because the Lord has
-
anointed and qualified me to preach the gospel of Good
-
Tidings to the meek, the poor, the afflict.
-
He sent me to bind up and heal the brokenhearted.
-
He did this for you. He always does this for you and
-
then he's anointed you to go help others.
-
Get free to bind up and heal. The brokenhearted to Proclaim
-
Liberty to the physical and spiritual captives, and the
-
opening of the prison, and the eyes to those who are bound to
-
proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord, the year of his favor,
-
and the day of Vengeance of our God to comfort all who mourn to
-
Grant. Consolation, and joy, to those
-
who, Mourn in Zion to give them an ornament, a Garland, a diadem
-
of beauty instead of Ashes. Hallelujah, thank you Father.
-
Thank you, Lord Beauty instead of Ashes.
-
Glory Beauty and said of Ashes. Thank you, Father, Beauty and
-
said of Ashes, the oil of Joy. Instead of mourning, a Garment
-
of Praise instead of a heavy and burdened and failing spirit that
-
they may be called Oaks of righteousness, lofty and strong
-
and magnificent, distinguished for uprightness and Justice and
-
right standing with God, the planting of the Lord, that he
-
would be glorified. That he would be glorified that
-
he would be glorified. Thank you.
-
Lord. Psalm 62. 8 says, just trust in
-
and lean on and rely on and have confidence in him at all times.
-
You people pour out your hearts before him.
-
God is a refuge for us, a fortress and a high tower and
-
let me end with Psalms 18. It says I will love You O Lord
-
my Drink with the Lord is my rock, he's my Fortress and my
-
deliverer, my God, my strength in whom, I trust my shield, and
-
the Horn of my salvation, my stronghold he wants you to let
-
go of the the other strongholds. He wants to be your stronghold.
-
He is your stronghold. He wants you to hold strongly.
-
To him. Hold on, hold on to him, hold
-
strong to him. In Jesus name, I'll call upon
-
the Lord, who is worthy to be praised and I'll be safe for my
-
enemies. You know, an accident says that
-
the body was of one, heart, one heart and one soul for us to be
-
able to do the, the Autumn and mighty things that he has in
-
store for us. He's already doing.
-
It but for us to do the the full capacity of what he's called us
-
to do, we need to be in one heart.
-
We need to be in one Soul. We need to allow God to deal in
-
to touch and to minister to you and those heavy places, those
-
places that need to be touched. And I'm going to tell you just
-
like surgery and just like it says in John 15.
-
It says he wants to cut those things off.
-
Off. But it's so that you can bear
-
more fruit. Off.
-
But it's so that you can bear more fruit.
