REBELLION 1
Gd created man in His Image. He wanted man t have a Gdly relatinship with Him. As a result f sin, this Gdly relatinship was brken and rebellin became the nature f man. Rebellin is a self-destructive prcess that is rted in the ccult. This is ne f the mst difficult areas t be set free frm we truly need Gd s GRACE! The Hly Spirit must cnvict yu and yu must make a definite decisin t get rid f it be mtivated t FIGHT against every sign f rebellin in yur life! Deliverance starts at the place f man's rebellin where he surrenders the right t lead his wn life, and surrenders himself t the rulership f King Y shua (Jesus Christ). Satan s nature is rebellin. In previus manuals, we have seen that WITCHCRAFT is making yur wn desires and wn reasnings superir t Gd s Will and Wrd. 1 Samuel 15:23 23 Fr rebellin is as the sin f witchcraft, and stubbrnness is as idlatry and teraphim (husehld gd luck images). Because yu have rejected the wrd f the Lrd, He als has rejected yu frm being king. Let s lk at the Hebrew understanding f the ACTION f rebellin M-(a)-R-(a)-D 1 [Strng s Hebrew 4775] Jb 24:13 13 These wrngders are f thse wh rebel against the light; they knw nt its ways nr stay in its paths. 1 M- R- I- Y [Strng s Hebrew 4805], meaning bitterness, is clsely cnnected t this wrd. 2
Deuternmy 1:26,43 26 Yet yu wuld nt g up, but rebelled against the cmmandment f the Lrd yur Gd. 43 S I spke t yu, and yu wuld nt hear, but rebelled against the cmmandment f the Lrd, and were presumptuus and went up int the hill cuntry. Psalm 78:8 8 And might nt be as their fathers a stubbrn and rebellius generatin, a generatin that set nt their hearts aright nr prepared their hearts t knw Gd, and whse spirits were nt steadfast and faithful t Gd. What picture-meaning d we get? MEM: Living water, A sheepfld, T bend, An utstretched arm. We need t recgnize that water is the carrier f smething it prjects bth energy and time. Water flws in a given directin therefre it will take yu: Twards smething OR, Away frm smething. RESH: The back f a man s head, Pverty that is the result f the reasning f an unstable mind. DALET: A dr, The heart f a matter. 3
The picture frmed shws us that the water life-giving ptential f man can be directed dwn the wrng paths when we listen t the unstable emtins f ur hearts and allw ur minds t becme divided and unstable. C-(a)-R-R [Strng s Hebrew 5637], meaning: T turn away, Refractry, Revlt. Psalm 66:7 7 He rules by His might frever, His eyes bserve and keep watch ver the natins; let nt the rebellius exalt themselves. Selah [pause, and calmly think f that]! Psalm 68:6,18 6 Gd places the slitary in families and gives the deslate a hme in which t dwell; He leads the prisners ut t prsperity; but the rebellius dwell in a parched land. 18 Yu have ascended n high. Yu have led away captive a train f vanquished fes; Yu have received gifts f men, yes, f the rebellius als, that the Lrd Gd might dwell there with them. Isaiah 30:1 WOE TO the rebellius children, says the Lrd, wh take cunsel and carry ut a plan, but nt Mine, and wh make a league and pur ut a drink ffering, but nt f My Spirit, thus adding sin t sin; P-(a)-SH [Strng s Hebrew 6586/8], meaning: Break away frm authrity, T trespass, Apstate, Quarrel. What picture-meaning d we get? PEY: SHIN: A muth, T speak. Within this meaning we understand that speech is a place where significant things happen. In ther wrds, by ur speech we bring t fruitin the internal spiritual event that is in yur heart. T change, T repeat, 4
T be different. Therefre what we d again and again (that which frm the majrity f ur actins) serves t nurish the envirnment arund us. Negative actins therefre g n t be repeated. We get the imagery in the winepress ur actins will have the same effect we will: Oppress, Trample under ft, And tread dwn. The picture frmed fr the actin f rebellin is ne where ur muths frm the fundatin f ur resulting actins f ppressin/destructin, by giving vice t the inner man. Understanding rebellin 2 Tday rebellin is seen as acts f defiance t authrity and inability t stay in step with the cmmn, accepted nrms, and the taking part in things such as the ccult, and s frth. Frm the Grec-Rman perspective, it is the lack f cnfrmity t the accepted nrm that is the standard. Hwever, the Hebraic [Biblical] understanding f rebellin is the degree that we frget Gd. 2 This Biblical understanding is very different t the Greek mindset! 5
What des this mean? 1. Firstly we need t have a relatinship with Gd. Exdus 20:2 2 I am the Lrd yur Gd, Wh has brught yu ut f the land f Egypt, ut f the huse f bndage. Actually, the Ten Cmmandments are better translated as the Ten Wrds. There IS a cmmand t recgnize the fact that He is Gd ur Father the Father wh brught us ut f the land f Egypt, ut f the huse f bndage. This is the fundatinal principle that He is laying dwn fr thse wh desire t enter int relatinship with Him. Accept Gd as yur Father t enable yur redemptin! Relatinship brings abut an inner drive t perfrm t Gd s Will and thus, a willingness t bey any cmmandment He may give. The Bible is nly fr thse wh have accepted the First Wrd. T insist that thers fllw the Wrd withut first recgnizing that He is GOD, ur Father Wh brught us ut f Egypt, is the truest definitin f legalism. But if yu are saved, the nrmal respnse is t want t fllw them because yu LOVE Him. Fllwing His Cmmandments because yu LOVE Him is NEVER legalism. 2. We are blessed because-if-when we are literally living n the heels f being willing servants t His Cmmandments. Deuternmy 7:12 12 And if yu hearken t these precepts and keep and d them, the Lrd yur Gd will keep with yu the cvenant and the steadfast lve which He swre t yur fathers. The KJV and NIV translate this differently: Deuternmy 7:12 12 Wherefre it shall cme t pass, if ye hearken t these judgments, and keep, and d them, that the LORD thy Gd shall keep unt thee the cvenant and the mercy which he sware unt thy fathers: KJV Deuternmy 7:12 12 If yu pay attentin t these laws and are careful t fllw them, then the LORD yur Gd will keep his cvenant f lve with yu, as he swre t yur ancestrs. NIV Ekev is still an unusual Hebrew wrd t use in this cntext, as the Bible uses ther Hebrew wrds fr bth because and if. Quite literally, ekev means heel. Therefre yu culd say that the blessings f ur Gd cme n the heels f ur listening and bedience ur SH MA. Jewish cmmentatr James Stne Gdman pints t the usage f ekev in Psalm 89:51, where it speaks f n the heels (ekev) f the Messiah as referring t the last generatin befre the Messiah. That heel generatin cntains the weight f every generatin prir t it every wrd said, every cmmandment perfrmed, cntributes in sme way t the 6
cming f the Messiah. That generatin is therefre pinted t in Deuternmy 7:12 as the generatin wh will SH MA the Instructins f ur Gd. 3. We are in rebellin when we frget Gd. Deuternmy 9:5 5 Nt fr yur righteusness r fr the uprightness f yur [minds and] hearts d yu g t pssess their land; but because f the wickedness f these natins the Lrd yur Gd is driving them ut befre yu, and that He may fulfill the prmise which the Lrd swre t yur fathers, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacb. 2 Crinthians 2:9 9 Fr this was my purpse in writing yu, t test yur attitude and see if yu wuld stand the test, whether yu are bedient and altgether agreeable [t fllwing my rders] in everything. In practical terms, t frget is smething like this the etymlgy f SH-(a)-K-(a)-CH Hebrew fr frget means t frget due t distractin r inattentin. In Deuternmy 8, we read that the things that distract us are ur full stmachs, ur beautiful hmes, ur jbs, and ur mney. Accrding t the Thelgical Wrdbk f the Old Testament, frgetting is nt simply a psychlgical act f having a thught pass frm ne s cnsciusness it is a temprary r permanent lapse f memry. This is indicated by the frequent identificatin f the verb with an actin. T frget the LORD yur Gd is t nt keep His Cmmandments. Deuternmy 8:11 11 Beware that yu d nt frget the Lrd yur Gd by nt keeping His cmmandments, His precepts, and His statutes which I cmmand yu tday, T frget the LORD yur Gd is t fllw ther gds. Deuternmy 8:19 19 And if yu frget the Lrd yur Gd and walk after ther gds and serve them and wrship them, I testify against yu this day that yu shall surely perish. T frget the LORD yur Gd is t live in fear f harm and danger, t live fretfully and timidly. Isaiah 51:13 13 That yu shuld frget the Lrd yur Maker, Wh stretched frth the heavens and laid the fundatins f the earth, and fear cntinually every day because f the fury f the ppressr, when he makes ready t destry r even thugh he did s? And where is the fury f the ppressr? T frget the LORD yur Gd is t live in rebellin. 7
Psalm 106:13 13 But they hastily frgt His wrks; they did nt [earnestly] wait fr His plans [t develp] regarding them, Frgetting is ften assciated specifically with turning away frm the Wrd. Prverbs 3:1 MY SON, frget nt my law r teaching, but let yur heart keep my cmmandments; Hsea 4:6 6 My peple are destryed fr lack f knwledge; because yu [the priestly natin] have rejected knwledge, I will als reject yu that yu shall be n priest t Me; seeing yu have frgtten the law f yur Gd, I will als frget yur children. Mses was tld t remember t keep the Cmmandments f the Wrd in rder t live in the Prmised Land. Deuternmy 8:1 ALL THE cmmandments which I cmmand yu this day yu shall be watchful t d, that yu may live and multiply and g in and pssess the land which the Lrd swre t give t yur fathers. Frgetting will bring abut exile frm the land, graphically prtrayed in. Leviticus 18:24 24 D nt defile yurselves in any f these ways, fr in all these things the natins are defiled which I am casting ut befre yu. What are sme attitudes that cme ut f hurts and unfulfilled needs? Grudge/grievance, Bitterness, Refuse t cmmunicate, Rebellin against authrity, Duble mindedness (feelings f lve and hate at the same time), Distrustfulness. NOTE! A majr key t deliverance is that we must trust Gd. What are the steps t rebellin (against Gd and man)? An unfulfilled need becmes, A grudge/grievance becmes, Bitterness becmes, Hatred becmes, Rebellin. 8
What are the surces f rebellin? Rejectin, Unfulfilled needs, Hurts, Adam's nature, Occult, includes pp-music, T little discipline in hme. What is the nature f rebellin? Refuses t be restricted the persn wants t rule his wn life and refuses t be hindered. Rebellin refuses discipline discipline sets limits and rebellin wants n bundaries. Rebellin refuses authrity: Rebellin is nt a demn, but it is an attitude and state f the heart. Prblems with rebellin are manifested in ur relatinships with thse wh are in authrity. There is an inability t submit t authrity in schl, parents, incme tax, speed limits, smuggling, and s frth. Until rebellin is dealt with, a persn will experience many prblems, Lust, anger, hatred, inability t cntrl the flesh, eating disrders like weight gain, anrexia, bulimia, and s frth. What are the main areas f rebellin? Rebellin refuses parental authrity. When a child is disciplined r punished withut receiving lve and acceptance, then a grudge/grievance, anger, bitterness and hatred will develp, that will end in rebellin. Parental discipline must g hand in hand with lving acceptance. Ephesians 6:4 4 Fathers, d nt irritate and prvke yur children t anger [d nt exasperate them t resentment], but rear them [tenderly] in the training and discipline and the cunsel and admnitin f the Lrd. 9
Rebellin refuses gvernmental authrity. Scripture refers t the end-times as the era f lawlessness. The antichrist is called the lawless ne (2 Thessalnians 2:8). Rebellin refuses the Authrity f Gd. Humanism is the refusal f man t submit t Gd's Authrity. Occultism and frtune telling are brn ut f rebellin against Gd, where man manipulates supernatural pwers fr his wn purpses. Un-Gdliness is t live as if Gd des nt exist. Prverbs 28:9 9 He wh turns away his ear frm hearing the law [f Gd and man], even his prayer is an abminatin, hateful and revlting [t Gd]. What are the results f rebellin? 1. The bdy rules the persn (Rmans 8:6-7; Galatians 5:9-21). The ne wh rebels against authrity becmes a slave f his wn bdy. Uncntrlled bdily appetites are the result f rebellin, this is the rt f addictins fd, alchl, sex, and s frth. This als applies t emtinal appetites f jealusy, strife, envy, and s frth. 2. Hmsexuality tw rts that need t be dealt with, are rejectin and rebellin. The hmsexual is nt brn like that. He usually has a very pr father image, n self-identificatin and very strng rts f rebellin. When yu are given ver t the lusts f the flesh, it is the judgment f Gd against rebellin (Rmans 1:21, 24-28). 3. Witchcraft and/r frtune-telling has it s rt in rebellin. Rebellin causes yu t refuse the Authrity f Gd's Wrd, where yur wn reasnings are exalted abve the Wrd f Gd (remember Saul?) Witchcraft takes ver the rle f Gd. It refers t man's desire t manipulate and cntrl peple yu take revenge by btaining pwer and ding evil. Witchcraft is rebellin and disbedience, where yu becme yur wn authrity. 1 Samuel 15:22 22 Samuel said, Has the Lrd as great a delight in burnt fferings and sacrifices as in beying the vice f the Lrd? Behld, t bey is better than sacrifice, and t hearken than the fat f rams. 4. Schizphrenia what is schizphrenia? Schizphrenia is nt split persnality. It is a thught disrder where ne lses the ability t tell what is real and what is imaginary. It causes ne t hear vices and hallucinate. They ften feel that they are being watched, fllwed r persecuted. This is nt a md disrder it is caused by a different type f chemical imbalance. There is a family f medicatins t cntrl schizphrenia. Anti-depressants are used nly ccasinally if there are many depressive type thughts. Schizein means t split. Phen menas mind. The same tw rts we see in hmsexuality, namely rejectin and rebellin. Schizphrenia (split persnality) differs frm ne persn t the ther: 10
Rejectin will bring symptms f fear, lneliness, shyness, fantasy, insecurity, negative self image, fear f rejectin, jealusy, depressin, and suicide. Rebellin will cause utbursts f hatred, vilence, bitterness, pssessiveness, frtune telling, cntrl f thers, cannt be cnvinced, pride, self will, self deceptin and perversin. The schizphrenic lses his identity and swings frm ne extreme t the ther where he hides between ne r the ther rt. 5. Blcks the learning prcess It causes a resistance t be taught. Rebellin is the way f the fl. Being unteachable wh are yu t tell me what t d? Yu aren t ging t tell me what t d! Psalm 14:1 1 THE [empty-headed] fl has said in his heart, There is n Gd. They are crrupt, they have dne abminable deeds; there is nne that des gd r right. 6. Disrderliness n self discipline. 7. Prcrastinatin. 8. Passive aggressiveness (Ahab) and/r passive resistance even if yu dn t thrw things arund, r swear still is still rebellin (what ges n in yur heart?) Hw d we recgnize rebellin? Outrageus and/r disgraceful remarks t evke reactins f shck. "Culdn't care state f mind and language S what if I m ging t hell! Thughts f rebellin (nbdy will tell me what t d). Mcking f peple in psitins f authrity (teachers, schl leaders, pastrs, cell leaders), unteachable. Cntradictin in clthing, speech (punk hairstyles, and s frth). A willingness rather t suffer than t submit. Will never give in fr instance, refusing t cry, hunger strike, and s frth. Revengeful thughts I ll get yu back. Prverbs 14:6 6 A scffer seeks Wisdm in vain [fr his very attitude blinds and deafens him t it], but knwledge is easy t him wh [being teachable] understands. A wrd n ANOREXIA Psalm 107:11, 17-18 11 Because they had rebelled against the wrds f Gd and spurned the cunsel f the Mst High. 17 Sme are fls [made ill] because f the way f their transgressins and are afflicted because f their iniquities. 18 They lathe every kind f fd, and they draw near t the gates f death. 11
The Amplified Bible ftnte states that the wrd fl in the Old Testament seldm, if ever, is used t describe the feeble-minded, imbecile, idit, r mrn. Rather it always has within it the meaning f a rebel, especially twards Gd and the laws f rder, decency, and justice. What are the steps ut f rebellin? There are tw main keys t receive deliverance frm rebellin t knw that yu CAN TRUST THE LORD and THAT GOD LOVES YOU! Deep repentance cnfess yur rebellin. See it as Gd sees it identical t witchcraft. Frgive yur parents and authrity figures. Chse t change yur attitude f heart t submissin t human authrity and t Gd. Place yur whle life in the Hands f Gd. Cme t ttal submissin t the Ruler ship f Gd. Renunce all ccult activities and clse the drs by an act f yur will. Ask Gd t cut yu lse frm all bnds f rebellin. Sme prblems smetimes experienced during deliverance frm rebellin Yu think that it is yur persnality. It serves as a prtectin and defense fr yu Nbdy will sit n my head! Yu experience it as enjyable. Yu feel strng by saying, G and jump! T be meek, humble, gentle sunds t sft. When yu refuse ministry it clearly shws the rt f rebellin! Deliverance and restratin becme yurs when yu deal with the prblem f rebellin. D nt allw the slightest bit f enmity r rebellin t remain in yur heart. Further ntes n und erstanding REBELLION... One f the mst murnful things we see tday is hw many are being led in the way f blame shifting and REBELLION rather than the way f repentance. It is VITAL in these days f strng delusin t understand the Psitinal Authrity which we are t have IN Christ. We can NOT be IN authrity UNLESS we are UNDER authrity. Saints are t rule and reign with Christ. Letting unbelievers judge matters invlving tw peple, wh wuld prfess t be Christians, is a shameful bad witness. 12
It is better t suffer wrng and be defrauded than t have unbelievers pass judgment n the Christian. Jesus, in Matthew 18:15-18, taught the right way that the believer is t handle the situatin f ne Christian in disagreement with anther Christian. If this discipline were fllwed the prblems regarding Christian relatinships culd be minimised. Our cncern shuld be t hnur Gd in ur cnduct tward ne anther in all things. Tday, wh is willing t suffer injustice, rather than in any way t shame ur relatinship t the Lrd Jesus Christ befre an antichrist wrld that is hstile t Him? The unrighteus shall nt inherit the kingdm f Gd. The cnduct f the believer twards ur brthers and sisters must be DIFFERENT than what is characteristic f the wrld. If it is nt, then regardless f what we like t call urselves, and what we like t believe abut ur being IN Christ, we are deceived, and will end up amng the wicked that are excluded frm the kingdm. In these last days f strng delusin, many wh have knwn the blessing f the washing f regeneratin, f the grace f Gd fund in repentance and faith in the Lrd Jesus Christ, have been vertaken by strng delusin. Many, wh had smewhere in the past been set apart r sanctified t the Lrd, and had been justified in the Name f the Lrd Jesus Christ, have been vertaken in the strng delusin, and left the way f righteusness, and gne in the way f deceptin. If a believer is IN Christ, then the believer's cnduct shuld be different than the wrld, and hnuring t Christ. Beware the leaven f the Pharisees. Our walk must be cnsistent with ur talk, r else we deceive urselves, and are hypcrites. When we prfess t be a Christian, then ur wrds AND ur actins must be cnsistently the SAME. The end des NOT justify the means. Rebellin is as the sin f witchcraft. Gd will NOT be fund amng thse in the way f rebellin. Rebellin will NOT glrify Gd. The glrius freedm we have in Christ is NOT a freedm r a right t d whatever any man wants t d. The Bible clearly defines the cnditin when the peple f Gd have becme reprbate, as when everyne did that which was right in his wn eyes. At the pint where everyne did that which was right in his wn eyes, NATIONAL JUDGMENT f the peple f Gd was certain. The first thing Gd des in His prcess f judging His peple, is t give them a WICKED KING, and hence, America has been given the Bush-Clintn-Bush syndicate f Sudden Destructin. Saints must knw that regardless f hw wicked and evil may be the king wh Gd allws t be placed ver His peple, the peple f Gd will nly add sin t sin, and iniquity t iniquity, when they fllw in the way f rebellin. 13
We are nt ur wn; we belng t Christ. As Christians, we are t flee frm sin. Is witchcraft sin? Christians are t KNOW that rebellin is as the sin if witchcraft. Christians shuld immediately recgnise thse wh wuld claim t be Christians that wuld dare t lead in the way f rebellin as deceived deceivers, wh seek t deceive thers t fllw in their strng delusin and deceptin. The Christian has been purchased with the precius Bld f Christ and shuld hnur Christ by hliness and purity f living, which des nt allw any place fr rebellin. The genuine Christian with patience, if necessary, will enter the fellwship f Christ's suffering. Gd's way, fr His peple is NOT rebellin. The genuine Christian must be yielded t Gd as a living sacrifice, whlly acceptable unt Him. This is ur reasnable service, as fllwers and believers in the Lrd Jesus Christ. When we see such evidence f the great falling away frm THE Faith, as the divrce rate in the churches exceeding that f the general ppulatin, we better knw t be walking sberly and circumspectly. In the midst f such darkness and vid f biblical mrality in this antichrist wrld tday, Christians must be particularly careful NOT t g the way f rebellin. We are t abstain frm any appearance f sins, and rebellin is a particularly grievus, enticing, iniquitus, and destructive sin. Marriage was instituted by Gd and sanctified by Jesus Christ. Marriage is pure and marriage is hly. Jesus said, What therefre Gd hath jined tgether, let nt man put asunder. If a separatin takes place between a husband and wife, she is t remain unmarried, r be recnciled. The husband is nt t put away his wife. The increase f divrce is appalling. It is withut any cnsideratin f what Gd's Wrd has t say abut adultery and remarriage. Many are caught in this awful tragedy because f the lack f knwledge f Gd's Wrd. Divrce is nt nly wrecking ur hmes but it is wrecking ur natin. The destructive influence f divrce is beynd cmprehensin. A partner becming a Christian r refusing t becme a Christian is n grunds fr divrce. 14
Any cnsideratin f separatin shuld never be n the part f a Christian frm an unbeliever. Hwever, if the unbeliever decides t separate he shuld nt be under bndage t remain with the believer. The Christian shuld d all he can t win the unbelieving ne t Christ. Christians shuld never marry an unbeliever in the first place. The widespread destructive awful tragedy f divrce within the churches is because f the lack f knwledge f Gd's Wrd. Divrce is nt nly wrecking ur hmes but it is wrecking ur natin. Its deterirating influence is beynd cmprehensin. Hw culd the divrce rate in the s-called church be higher than the general ppulatin? Call it PROOF f the GREAT falling away frm THE Faith. Obviusly the s-called churches are NOT cnsidering what the MORE SURE wrd f Gd has t say abut adultery and remarriage. Mst prbably are nt even sure which bible versin is the mre sure Wrd. The very idea f different Bibles DEFIES lgical thught, and screams f the Strng Delusin, f the great falling away frm THE Faith in these last days. Yet few will have ears t hear. Muslims knw better. Muslims think Christians are subhuman and are quick t tell yu there culd nt be any such things as different krans. A spuse becming a Christian r nt becming a Christian is n grunds fr divrce. Any cnsideratin f separatin shuld never be n the part f a Christian frm an unbeliever, but if the unbeliever decides t separate he shuld nt be under bndage t remain with the believer. The Christian shuld d all he can t win the unbelieving ne t Christ. Christians shuld never marry an unbeliever in the first place. With the increasing signs f the cming f the Lrd, we knw that the time is shrt. In these last days, the Christian must knw real sacrifice and give as much time as pssible t prayer, studying, teaching and witnessing fr Christ. Thse wh have studied t be apprved unt Gd shuld g frth t teach Gd's Wrd. It may be t a neighbur r a small child wh is a playmate f ur children, r smene in a grcery market, dress shp, pst ffice, but lk fr the pprtunities and d nt miss them. Fight cvetusness, wrldliness, and be ready t gracefully give up ur earthly attachments. Otherwise, we will lse sight f ur pririties fr serving Christ. Having knwledge withut lve nly puffs up. Lve builds up, and therefre lve is better than knwledge. Pride, because f knwledge, is a very dangerus thing that is t ften evident amng Christians. 15
True knwledge prduces true lve fr Gd. Wuld we be like Paul, wh said that rather than ffend a brther, he will relinquish his knwledge and liberty s he wuld nt be an ffence t a brther in Christ. Christian liberty is t be gverned by lve fr thers. Lve is keeping the cmmandments f Gd. Lve is rebuking yur neighbur rather than tlerating the sin. Lve is t rebuke yur brther directly when he trespasses against yu. Always the bjective is frgiveness and restratin in the way f righteusness. D yu see hw different the REAL LOVE f Gd, which is taught by the Wrd f Gd in Leviticus 19:17 and Luke 17:3 is cmpared t feigned affectin and natural human emtin taught by the wrld and its churches? Christians need t watch and pray, and remember that t be cnsistent in their witness, salvatin and a hly walk are inseparably cnnected. The truth must be lived, and there is n substitute fr bedience t the Wrd f Gd. I wuld warn anyne claiming t be a Christian against any empty prfessin f Christianity withut the pwer f the Hly Spirit wrking thrugh them. That pwer is the pwer t say n t sin, and especially t say n t thse wh wuld lead in the way f rebellin. Everything in the Bible is written fr OUR admnitin and fr OUR example in PARTICULAR, because we knw we are the last generatin. Remember what Mses said t the peple f Gd in Deuternmy 31:27 Fr I knw thy rebellin, and thy stiff neck: behld, while I am yet alive with yu this day, ye have been rebellius against the LORD; and hw much mre after my death? Paul tld us clearly in: I Crinthians 10:11 Nw all these things happened unt them fr examples: and they are written fr ur admnitin, upn whm the ends f the wrld are cme. YES THAT IS MOST APPLICABLE TO YOU AND ME OF ALL PEOPLE OF ALL TIME. Gd, accrding t the example f the Israelites wh died in the wilderness, was PROVOKED by their lust, murmuring, and REBELLION. Hw much MORE imprtant fr yu and me t cnsider what happened t them, than any ther peple f all time. Gd is FAITHFUL, yet we are t live carefully and prayerfully in this wrld, believing Him fr victry ver each temptatin that cmes t us. We are t be thankful rather than murmuring, and abve all things, NOT TO GO IN THE WAY OF REBELLION. 16
All f us have temptatins and this is nt sin; but, sin is in yielding t temptatin and acting in unbelief tward Gd. Satan cannt frce us t sin. When we sin it is by persnal chice. Almst everyne, whether r nt they claim t be Christians, gladly take what Gd has fr them in the way f blessings. Yet, n the ther hand, mst want t g ut and live as careless, irrespnsible, and unthankful, REBELS. Rebellin sadly, is almst glrified in this antichrist wrld culture tday. I wuld warn everyne, and ask everyne, hw lng halt ye between tw pinins? If yu knw Gd is Gd, then in these last days f strng delusin, be particularly aware f any suggestin r thught f rebellin, and be careful hw we live. Gd is faithful and will give us victry ver the wrld, the flesh, and the devil, but, we MUST chse Gd's way, and nt what seems right in ur wn mind, apart frm the Wrd f Gd. But this I say, brethren, the time is shrt: it remaineth, that bth they that have wives be as thugh they had nne; And they that weep, as thugh they wept nt; and they that rejice, as thugh they rejiced nt; and they that buy, as thugh they pssessed nt; And they that use this wrld, as nt abusing it: fr the fashin f this wrld passeth away. With the increasing signs f the cming f the Lrd, we knw that ur time is shrt. In these last days, the Christian must knw real sacrifice and give as much time as pssible t prayer, studying, teaching and witnessing fr Christ. Lk fr the pprtunities and d nt miss them. D we remember ur first lve? Are we keeping the main thing the main thing? Will what we are ding make any difference a hundred years frm nw? We need t lk up and stay fcused t be faithful and withut distractin in serving the Lrd. We als must stp the bsessin with earthly pssessins and be prepared t give them up gracefully with a heart set t share whatever we d have. Anything we d fr smene less frtunate than we are, we in reality are ding that fr ur King Yeshua (Jesus). STUDY, really study, Matthew chapter 25. T run the race successfully and btain the prize, self-denial is necessary. T run this race and strive fr the mastery and btain the victry, ne must be temperate in all things. If fr things like an Olympic medal peple put frth such disciplined effrts, hw much mre shuld Christians knw discipline in living fr Christ. 17
But I keep under my bdy, and bring it int subjectin: lest that by any means, when I have preached t thers, I myself shuld be a castaway. Christians need t watch and pray and remember that t be cnsistent in their witness, salvatin and a hly walk are inseparably cnnected. The truth must be lived, and there is n substitute fr bedience t the Wrd f Gd. Prverbs 17:11 A rebellius man seeks nly evil; Therefre a cruel messenger will be sent against him. Only be very strng and f gd curage. Stay IN the Wrd. 18

Be blessed with healing in every area f damage in yur family line. Be blessed t see the Light and Truth f the Healer shining n the sins and the issues that have been passed dwn generatin t generatin.

Receive His gift f frgiveness t flw dwn yur family line as yu repent f transgressing His Cmmands. Be blessed with strength t give Him yur cncerns and leave them with Him. Be blessed t take them frm yur shulders and leave them in His Hands. Be blessed with His Light shining int issues f weakness and cncern. What His Light expses lses its pwer t bind yu. Be blessed with feeling His lving Eyes lking int yurs. Be blessed with the Light f Messiah being very evident in yur healing, as He brings everything t His Light. In His Light yu have life. Be blessed t rise frm death, darkness, and disease as the Light f Messiah infuses yu. Y shua [Jesus] said, "D nt be afraid. I am the Light f the wrld, and I am with yu always." He said, "Fear nt, little flck. It is my Father's gd pleasure t give yu the kingdm." Be blessed with being set free t enjy yur life t the fullest in Gd's lve and greatness. Spiritman, be blessed t see and experience the generatinal depsits f blessings and legacies He has placed in yur bldline. Gd said that althugh iniquity is visited upn the third and furth generatin, He shws His lve and blessings t a thusand generatins f thse wh lve Him and keep His Cmmandments. 19
Be blessed with Gd's peace, grace, favr, justice, righteusness and much fruitfulness, as yu reap hundred-fld t a thusand generatins.

"Yu brught me ut f the wmb; yu made me trust in yu even at my mther's breast." And in Psalm 71 :6. "Frm birth I have relied n Yu... I will ever praise Yu." Spiritman, Gd has been present with yu frm the wmb. Befre yur mther r father knew they were expecting, yur Abba Father knew yu were there, and He rejiced as yur Abba. Gd has blessed yu with eternal life because f the Sin Offering f His Sn Y shua [Jesus] that transcends the life yu had frm yur parents. Yu are a sn/daughter f Gd, n the authrity f His Wrd. He rdained yu and brught yu frth. Spiritman, yu legitimately needed a mther and a father's blessing, but yur earthly parents did nt knw yur full need fr it r hw t give it. They didn't have it t give because they themselves were wunded. S step frward t receive healing fr wunds yu received at the hands f yur parents and ther caregivers. There are tw types f histry stred in everyne. There is the remembered histry f events and experiences. There are als a subcnscius histry f emtins and feelings. Receive Gd's wrk as He cleanses deep wunds that yu received frm wrds and actins in yur family f rigin. Receive the ministry f Yahweh-Rapha, the healing Cvenant Name f Eternal Gd, as He wrks in the cre f yur being. As yu meet with Him Face t face, receive His healing and blessing and deep release, where n ther prayer ministry has tuched. The sul (mind and will) has repented f the judgments and vws ver and ver, but under the judgments and vws, there were emtins f fear, rejectin, abandnment, anger, disappintment, shame, unfrgiveness, self-hatred, etc., that sprang frm specific wunds. Thse remain imprinted in the rganic brain and stred in yu, the spirit. Spiritman, listen t Gd's Wrd in Psalm 46:4-5. ''There is a river whse streams make glad the city f Gd, the hly place where the Mst High dwells. Gd is within her, she will nt fall; Gd will help her at break f day." Yu are that hly place, that temple where Gd dwells. The Spirit f Y shua [Jesus] lives in yu t heal and make yu whle. The Spirit f Truth and the Gd f all mercy is ready t d a thrugh wrk t bring new life. 20
Receive His River f Cleansing frm all feelings that Gd didn't authr - that yu were f n value, a nuisance, r yu were nt wanted r were cnceived and brn at an incnvenient time. Receive Gd's River f Cleansing frm the feeling that yu were a burden t be brn, r an bject t be used, a fixture in smene's wrld instead f a precius little ne t be lved, valued, prtected, hnred, and nurtured. Receive cleansing in that cre sense f being that yu were a disappintment; that yu culd never measure up r be gd enugh. Receive cleansing frm cmparisn, cmpetitin, evaluatin, and displacement. Be clean and be free f that depsit f blame, shame, guilt, cnfusin, and self-hatred. Be free f the feeling that yu had t be respnsible t hld the family tgether, t make mmma and/r daddy happy. Be free and be cleansed f false respnsibility that yu had t make peace in their irrespnsibility, r absence, r emtinal absence, r strife in the family. Be free and be washed clean f false respnsibility fr the cnflict and pain, that everything that went wrng was yur fault. Spiritman, hear this: It wasn't yur fault. Yur mther/father failed t be present because f their wn prblems. Be free and receive the River f Healing fr the denial f yur legitimate needs because they were never met. Be healed f the hpe deferred that made yur heart sick. Yu have frgiven many times frm yur head, but yur heart still hurts and brings ld garbage t the table in current situatins and relatinships. Receive the healing t yu, spiritman, that needed parenting, s yu can truly release yur parents fr failing t be the persn/persns yu cried ut fr him/her t be. Spiritman, yu have received a new filter f the Bld f Y shua [Jesus] and yur Heavenly Father's Lve and the Seal f the Hly Spirit.

Abuse f all kinds: physical, emtinal, sexual, spiritual, verbal, Put dwn, shame, being ill-used, Infirmities f all kinds. Be blessed as Gd fills up the hle in yur heart, thse empty spaces, that bttmless pit that craves nearness, intimacy, affirmatin, cnnectin, and significance, and yet fears it, is unable t receive it, and runs away frm it. Receive healing frm the wund caused by lack f bnding with yur parent. Receive cleansing frm attachment wunds, as Father-Gd binds yu t Himself with crds that cannt be brken, as He prmised. Be free and be whle, be healed f brken trust that resulted when yu culd nt settle dwn and feel secure, safe, and trusting in yur parent t be there fr yu. Receive nurturing TRUST frm yur Heavenly Father wh never lets yu dwn, s that yu can trust authrity figures. Spiritman, chse t replace the lies that yu have agreed with and thus made agreements with the father f lies. Sme f the lies are that yu were nt imprtant enugh r wrthy t be given time, pririty, fcused attentin, cmmunicatin; that yu were a mistake, yu're a victim, just a survivr, and s frth. Chse t crucify yur unreliable feelings n the crss f Y shua [Jesus]. Take captive the thughts, emtins, and will f yur sul, in the Name f Y shua [Jesus]. Yu can d it. Yu must d it fr full victry, and nbdy can d it fr yu. Gd is at wrk in yu t will and t d His gd pleasure. Receive His enabling grace. Be blessed with His strength t embrace His wrk as gd and perfect and in perfect timing. Spiritman, give the Hly Spirit f Truth permissin t clean ut all the pisn f wundedness that the sul has knwn fr years and receive His ministry t d it. Be curageus t seek the truth, t feel the pain, t lay the axe t all bitter rts fr a thrugh wrk at their deepest surce, that they may be cmpletely remved and nt defile yu and truble many. Yu have authrity in Messiah t bind up and cast ut all the enemy's strnghlds cming frm yur family relatinships. Put the crss f Y shua (Jesus) and the empty tmb between yu and the wrks and wrkers f darkness t get release frm the familiar games they have played: anger, guilt, shame, blame, judgment, bitterness, nn-feeling, cntrl, uprar, victim-mentality, perfrmance, secrets, cmpulsins, addictins, and s frth. Spiritman, be strng t embrace life as Gd intends fr yu and nt run away, withdraw, build walls, r be self-prtecting any lnger. Drink deeply f the understanding that yu are lved, cared fr, significant, and the apple f yur Father's Eye. He delights in yu. He is happy yu are alive. Yu give Him jy. 22
Receive this reality and let yur brken lve-receiver be healed, as yur brkenness is displaced by a higher truth f yur place in Abba's huse. Frm the Light f the Eyes f Abba Father, receive blessing in yur inner being. Let it trickle dwn t sul, and heart, and emtins, and will, and identity, and legitimacy. Gd will rebuild what has been deslate and ppressed. He will restre the years the lcusts have eaten. Be blessed t cntinue t receive the ministry f Abba supernaturally in thse places where the little by/girl within still cries ut fr mthering r fathering. He ALWAYS finishes what He begins. Spiritman, settle dwn at the Feet f EI Shaddai in full security, acceptance, and blessing. He is always there fr yu. He invites yu t cnnect deeply and intimately with Him.
