You Have Held Yourself Back!

I have commented that I would rather be physically imprisoned than physically free but mentally bound. To be physically imprisoned would suggest I am aware of the physical restraints that have restricted me simply because it's visible to me.


On the other hand, constantly thinking in the same destructive non-progressing patterns is SELF-MENTAL IMPRISONMENT! In reality, no one is doing to you. Instead, you are doing this to yourself.



Every dislike situation or circumstance you've found yourself in, I can promise you at least 50% of it is due to how you process your thoughts towards it. In fact, you enabled your situation by agreeing with what you DISLIKE. Of course, this is achieved by making comments based on what you see and not speaking or thinking according to what you'd like to see.

Many are in worse situations but have decided to think the best about the situation. As a result, they've positioned themselves to manage what they've been given instead of allowing what they have been given to manage them! To change your situation, you must ignore, dismiss, or revisit the sum total of your thoughts that brought you to this point.

This is why scripture makes challenging statements like bless those who curse you, pray for those who spitefully use you, and say all manner of things against you. Love them that hate you....... The whole idea of these seemingly crazy statements is to CHANGE THE WAY THAT YOU THINK! Which, of course, is opposite to these statements.

Wrong patterns of thinking equate to SELF IMPRISONMENT! In other words, you will continue to circle the mountain of offense, bitterness, unforgiveness, and the like. Life will not get better if you're not prepared to think better. You will not be financially stable if you're committed to a poverty mentality. You will not be healthy if you're constantly mentally processing the thoughts of sickness. Your physical life will always display the fruits of your thought life.

Nelson Mandela endured 27 years of physical imprisonment and never held anything against his oppressors. He achieved this by simply concluding that while he may be in a physical prison which, he had no control. He refused to be a prisoner to depressing, negative, hateful, and unforgiving thoughts! Thus, Nelson Mandela was freed mentally before his physical freedom was ever granted.

I am led to say to someone this morning that unforgiveness, hate, bitterness, pride, selfishness, and the like have held you captive all your life. What folks have done to you is nothing compared to what you've continued doing to yourself. Not only is it self impose mental incarceration. It is also self-imposed mental abuse. I strongly advise you to release yourself from the mental prison you have created for yourself by letting the hurts, disappointments, pain, and whatever else of the past go! Life is short. I beg you to please begin living by releasing those that have hurt you............

LET GO AND LET GOD!

Is your method of prayer causing a delay?


 If you're believing God for something to materialize in your life and the foundation of your belief is focused more on the actual thing rather than the word of God that will manifest that thing, then sad to say you're in for a very, very long wait.


The word of God which is the POWER OF GOD will only be manifested based on the belief of his word. The apostle Paul said it this way, "I am not ashamed of the Gospel of Christ for it is THE POWER OF GOD unto salvation to EVERYONE that BELIEVE!, Romans 1:16. Therefore the power in which we need to make things happen will always be "THE WORD OF GOD"

With the above being said, I strongly suggest you revisit your method of praying. For example, Is it a house or a piece of property you're seeking God for, then search the scriptures in regards to what God has promise us in this area, such as, " I will give you land which you did not labor for" Joshua 24:13 or "I will give you houses filled with all good things which you did not fill" Deut. 6:10-11.

The manifestation of your physical house or property would be as a result of you praying and believing these scriptures and many more like them back to God. In fact he said that we must remind him of his word, not that he forgot his word, instead it is his word that he responds to. The object of your prayer MUST always be God's word, while the subject of your prayer would be whatever it is you're believing the word for.

So your pray should be as follows: Father, I am believing you for a home and your word says that you have already blessed us with ALL SPIRITUAL blessings in heavenly places, Eph. 1:3. Therefore I am asking you to manifest my spiritual blessing to physical blessing according to your word that says you'll give me houses I did not built and land that I did not labor for. I thank you because I know your word can not return unto you void but it must accomplish what it was sent out to do and also that you're watching over your word to perform it. Father, it is these promises (which is your word) that I am believing for the manifestation of my home in the name of your son Jesus Christ. Amen!

Again, if your prayers to God is centered more on that person, place or thing instead of his word that is embedded with the power to change or manifest that thing, then don't expect change or manifestation anytime soon.

"Therefore I say unto you, that whatsoever you desire when you pray, you must BELIEVE that you have RECEIVE them and you shall have them" Mark 11:24.

Understanding Faith!

The just shall live by faith, Romans 1:17

 The just shall live by faith, Galatians 3:11

 The just shall live by faith, Hebrews 10:38

Why would the bible repeat itself in three separate books that the just shall live by faith? Well, clearly it's something important due to its repetition and something that we seriously needs to look into.
Firstly, what is faith? Well,
most folks will repeat Hebrews 11:1 as the answer to that question, "Now Faith is the substance of things hoped for and the evidence of things not seen". However, this still does not explain what faith is.

Scripture tells us that Faith comes by hearing, but not just hearing anything. In fact it was specific as to what we aught to be listening to in an effort to receive faith and that is listening to or reading the WORD OF GOD! Romans 10:17

With the above understanding in mind we can safely and confidently conclude that FAITH is indeed THE WORD OF GOD! So the "JUST", which are the believers of Jesus Christ are repeatedly being asked in the above scriptures to live by the word of God, which is FAITH!

This is why scripture strongly expresses that it is impossible to please God without faith or his word, Hebrews 11:6.
Let's take this revelation a step further. In regards to Hebrews 11:1, which states that, "Now Faith is the substance of things hoped for and the evidence of things not seen". Let us substitute the word "faith" with the revelation of faith being "The word of God".

"Now the word of God is the substance or material of things that we are in expectation of and the word of God is also the evidence or proof of that expectation that has not manifested itself as yet!

Friends! Please, you must use your faith or the word of God in your prayers, in fact you must make a conscious effort to live by faith or the word of God, why you may ask?, well because the word of God or faith, is the POWER OF GOD TO THOSE THAT BELIEVE! Romans 1:16. Therefore whatever your request is to God it must be accompanied by FAITH which is the same as his word....... God I need you to heal me, then your faith will be, "Because of his stripes we are healed", Isaiah 53:3 or "He sent out his word and heal them" Psalm 107:20, For they that wait on the lord shall renew their strength" Isaiah 40:31.

Find the scriptures that supports your request from God, for it will be those scriptures that acts as spiritual currency in exchange for your request from God. As a reminder, it is impossible to please God without faith/his word!

According to your faith (the word of God) be it unto you, Matthew 9:29.

It Shall Come To Pass!

The word "shall" is a word that is frequently used in the bible. However, little attention is given to this word despite the authority and determining outcomes it speaks to.

The word "shall," for the most part, is always indicating DETERMINE FUTURE EVENTS, suggesting what one's intent, plans, or expectation is concerning future events. In other words, it speaks ...
Of a determine or establish end or result. Unlike words such as may and might that suggest or detains an uncertainty, the term "SHALL" indicates what will happen or what will be.

Amazingly, the etymology or origin of this word is of an old English origin, which means to "owe." It goes even further back to a prehistoric Germanic word skal or skul, which means "debt."

It is used in English as an auxiliary verb, denoting future time with such phrases as intends to, plan to, or expects to, must, ought to, etc. The bottom line is when this word is used, it speaks directly to a future obligation.

To owe someone or be in debt to anyone suggests that the indebted one had to, at some point, borrow from the one they're obligated to. So the revelation of the word "shall" will always be accompanied by the understanding that the future owes you, but for the most part, that owing is conditional.

For example, scriptures say, "And it SHALL come to pass if thou shalt hearken diligently unto the voice of the Lord thy God, to observe and to do all his commandments which I commanded thee this day, that the Lord thy God will set thee on high above all nations of the earth, Deut. 28:1

So for what is being promised to come to pass, we must lend our belief to whatever the biblical command may be, and as a result, the future now owes us the promise.

Further proof of this revelation extends to Deut 28:2, which says that ALL these blessings "SHALL" (OR WILL BE OWED TO US) come on us and overtake us if we shalt harken unto the voice of the Lord thy God.

So rather than being so caught up on the Prophet/prophetess saying that it "shall come to pass," you ought to be more concerned about the INSTRUCTIONS, which if followed will cause it to come to pass.

"You can not be owed anything if you've not invested something."

It is written!

Isn't it amazing how folks who have never had the physical, mental or emotional experience of your problems tend to be the ones with the most advice? Not to mention their insensitivity towards your problem.
For example, if you've lost a loved one folks would say, "Child I know how you feel" really! How is it possible for you to know how someone feels who lost a love one if you've never lost a loved one. There is a saying that goes like this, "Experience is the best teacher." This is so true because the one that has sat in that seat of experience can now relate to what you are currently experiencing from all levels, and not just from an imaginary level in regards to the one that's lacking the experience.

Scripture tells us that Jesus Christ has experienced every single situation that we as human being will ever face or experience. Not only would he be the right person to advise us but he also left a method of how to deal with life's challenges.

Scripture outlines to us in Luke 4:1-13 that every time Jesus was challenged by Satan his response always began with the phrase, "IT IS WRITTEN." The understanding and by extension the revelation of this scripture is clearly pointing out to us that to challenge the obstacles being hurled at us, be it physical or spiritual our number one defense MUST BE SPEAKING THE WORD OF GOD AGAINST IT! As opposed to seeking someone who does not have the experience and therefore can not relate to or guide us on the right path.

As a reminder in the above passage of scripture, Jesus Christ existed as a real physical man and Satan was and still is a spirit. My point here is, Jesus' example is pointing to the fact that you MUST NEVER CHALLENGE THE KINGDOM OF DARKNESS WITH THINGS THAT ARE PHYSICAL. Instead, the kingdom of darkness Must always be challenged BY THE WORD OF GOD WHICH IS SPIRIT (Jesus said,"For the word that I speak they are SPIRIT, and they are life," John 6:63).

So with the above spiritual principle in mind. When your financial crisis visits you, don't cuss the lending institutions. Instead, you challenge the spirit behind the lending institutions by saying, "You spirit of Mammon, it is written, my God shall supply all my needs according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus" Philippians 4:19.

The reality is, when you speak such words they become swords in the spirit realm that are now your spiritual weapons. How do I know this? Well, let's look at scripture. "The word of God is quick and powerful and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the dividing of soul and "SPIRIT," Heb. 4:12. Another scripture says, "And take the helmet of salvation and THE SWORD OF THE SPIRIT" Eph.6:17. So quoting the word is, in fact, engaging in defensive spiritual warfare...... Thus, Jesus' counter attack always followed the protocol of IT IS WRITTEN.

It is written, suggest to Satan and his demonic forces that his defeat has been recorded because the word written refers to something that has been done in the past..... Might God I love this! So are you being afflicted by sickness, well It is written that because of his (Jesus) stripes you are healed. Are you depress? It is written that God has given me the garment of praise for the spirit of depression, Isaiah 61:3. Are you expecting more in 2014? Well, it is written, God will do exceedingly abundantly, and above that, you could ever ask or think, Eph.3:20.

My words of wisdom today is simply this, whatever it is that you are currently fighting with and your defense is outside of the word of God, then the reality is you're preparing to repeat that situation. Instead, you must place your spiritual ax at its roots, which will always be spiritual and observe the difference.

"FOR IT IS WRITTEN"

Understanding the dreams you dream-The spirit of insufficiency

I not to long ago got up from a dream that I thought was necessary to share with you, so that you
would be aware of the many things that's pending in the spirit realm against you but more importantly how to recognize the spiritual implications of such dreams.

In my dream, I dreamt like my car was at the auto repair shop. I pulled up at the auto repair shop in a friend’s vehicle to see if my vehicle was repaired as yet. I can recall seeing the cashier totaling my repairs bill to give me the amount of what I owed. She then shouted to me that the cost of my repair was “two presidents and forty dollars”. Surprisingly in the dream I automatically knew it meant $240 for some reason.

Anyway I recall looking in my wallet but it was like in my mind I knew I did not have the full amount. So I took the cash out that I had in my wallet and began to count what I had. The notes were all in Bahamian currency which is equal or on par with American currency. Anyway, it became confusing as I was counting, meaning it seemed as if I had enough then it seem as if I didn’t have enough. Amazingly, while I was counting I was at the same time convinced in my mind that I didn’t have enough, even though I was hoping that I did (crazy right!).
It turned out that I didn’t have enough and I was short by a few dollars so I told the cashier that I was a few dollars short hoping that she would have given me a break, in fact I was short by about 4 to 5 dollars. She basically ignored what I said and told me that the $40 extra was due to supplies in particular oil that was added to the vehicle and that I could pick up the vehicle the next day. However, in the dream I knew I had no more money period, as a result I was very disappointed and sad, dream ended.

Now from the surface this may seem like a dream concerning my car and me not having the resources to pay for my repairs, when the reality is; like l have mentioned so many times before that the principle of a dream is that the dream itself is always spiritual and for the most part symbolic if one is not a straight dreamer. Straight dreamer, meaning just how things are presented in their dreams it will be displayed the exact way in reality.
Nevertheless, the dream is symbolically indicating a “spirit of insufficiency” pending in the spirit realm against my life. What is even more important to note is that with such a spirit being active in one’s life its job is to devour and challenge any type of favor or goodwill that would normally be extended to the dreamer by others and to always accompany the dreamer with confusion.

Now let’s review the dream, firstly my car is at the repair shop, symbolically my car represents my life and my car being at the repair shop indicates that there are things lacking in my life or things that are going to be lacking in my life that’s going to require resources to have those needs met. In this dream, I am confused while trying to count my funds and still came up short this is spiritually symbolic of the spirit of insufficiency. The proof of this spirit displayed itself when I expected favor from the cashier but got none. Again, this spirit challenges any type of favor or goodwill extended to its victim. Finally as you would recall I was confused while counting my monies. Have you ever had an experience where you were at a market place standing in line to pay for your goods, only to discover that you thought you had a certain amount in your purse or wallet that was not there when you went to retrieve it and as a result left you confused?You're now left wondering what did you do with the monies that you were convinced was stored away in your wallet/purse. Again, these are all signs of the spirit of insufficiency.

Well needless to say immediately when I woke up I began rebuking and cancelling the spiritual root of this dream to prevent physically manifestation in my life. If you have had such a dream and never cancelled the dream then you unknowingly became a co-conspirator to the insufficiency you’ve experienced in the past or currently in your life today. I saw the need to share this dream so that my readers would apply such knowledge in an effort  to destroy the works of the enemy in advance of him launching his attack.

As a reminder, your dreams are spiritual monitors providing you with a spiritual view of what's pending in the spirit realm that is seeking your approval to manifest itself in the natural realm. It is only when such dreams are not challenged and rebuked by the dreamer that they will experience the reality of such dreams.
