Dead or Dormant?

Dead or Dormant?

Read Ephesians 6:10-18

 

As we progress and grow towards becoming that “profitable” servant; we should discover that many of our ungodly habits and desires appear to no longer be present…which is a great accomplishment.  However, as my Grandmother would say, “Every shut eye ain’t sleep”.

The Lord wants to deliver us from everything that would hinder our walk with Him.  Yet in many instances, we have mistaking thought that we have been delivered from a particular spirit when we really haven’t. Sometimes we’ve eliminated the fruit – but not the root.  For example, we may have seemingly had an issue with: uncontrolled anger, gossip, envy, being a “busy body” in other people’s affairs or extreme competition ....just to name a few. However, we may not have realized that these are only the fruit which has been produced.  The seed or master spirit here is jealousy.  So I may have dealt with the fruit – yet the root is still lying dormant within me – waiting….sometimes for years to manifest itself again in a different type of fruit.  (I’m really trying to keep this as elementary as possible… I know that some of you have no clue as to what in the world I’m referring to!  However, just hang in there…put this one on the shelf and come back to it later! LOL!)    

So we must ask the Holy Spirit to reveal to us ANY of the areas in our lives where we think we received a “healing”, or deliverance.  (Now…if you are one of those “perfect” people who really can’t see any of these areas in our life – let me help you a little. Your number one culprit is pride!)  We must make certain that whatever is no longer prevalent in our lives, is truly dead….and not just still passively sitting around…. Lying dormant. 

Therefore, because we are living in these endtimes, we can’t make assumptions.  We must make certain that total deliverance has occurred in various areas of our lives – and that we are truly dead in those areas.  We can’t afford to have an issue surface – that we thought was gone!

Lastly, the Lord is telling me to remind…rather inform you that deliverance will not be obtained from professional counseling.  Spirits can’t be counseled!  However, once a spirit is dead (and not dormant)….then we can seek the proper counseling if it is still necessary.

 “When the unclean spirit has gone out of a person, it passes through waterless places seeking rest, and finding none it says, ‘I will return to my house from which I came.’ 25 And when it comes, it finds the house swept and put in order. 26 Then it goes and brings seven other spirits more evil than itself, and they enter and dwell there. And the last state of that person is worse than the first.”  Luke 11:24-26

    Blessings Apostle Claudia, HalleluYAH, now this teaching right here, is a word from the Heaven's. This word shows on not to be so busy(being under satan's yoke). Not allowing the no-names to hinder, block, or stop us from walking in our Divine Purposeful Gifts in God. 

    Thank you for sharing with us, Yahweh Tsobeth Daily bread 🍞 (Manna, and Wisdom).
