Loose him and let him go

The scripture passage from John 11:44 describes how Lazarus, after being raised from the dead, had his hands, feet, and face still bound with graveclothes and a napkin. Instructing those around him to "lose him and let him go," Jesus made it clear that Lazarus needed to be freed from the physical constraints that remained in his life despite his resurrection.

This biblical account serves as a powerful reminder of the need for us to also free ourselves from the bondage and control of the devil. Though God has already delivered us from the power of the devil, we still need to actively release ourselves from his clutches through warfare prayers especially when we are not enjoying the freedom that Christ has given to us through His death and resurrection. 

By breaking ourselves free from the demonic chains that may be binding us, we can access the full potential and grace that God has placed within us. No one will be able to reach his full potential in life and ministry unless he violently breaks himself loose from the influence of the power of darkness that is limiting him.

We are now living in the dispensation of the Sabbath, where Jesus Christ has given us rest. Everyone has the opportunity now to experience total liberation from the devil's influence. In this season of our Sabbath, we should no longer be burdened by sin, sorrow, delay, setbacks, or limitations imposed by the enemy. 

The death and resurrection of Jesus Christ completed the work of our salvation and deliverance, and our liberation from demonic activities has already been accomplished.  Now it is up to us to actively release ourselves from the influence and activities of the devil so that we can fully experience the freedom, grace, and potential that God has intended for us.

Power of Persistence

Power of Persistence  And Gideon came to Jordan, and passed over, he, and the three hundred men that were with him, faint, yet pursuing them. Judges 8:4 Persistence is essential for pursuing a significant purpose and achieving a vision that seems beyond our strength. Despite their exhaustion, Gideon and his soldiers continued their pursuit of their enemies, demonstrating the power of a clear and compelling goal to inspire perseverance in fulfilling a dream. Persistence allows us to remain consistent and steadfast in our pursuits. Without a great vision, we may struggle to rise from complacency and actively seek God with the dedication needed for constant prayer, which builds a strong spirit, deepens our faith, enhances our understanding of the Word of God, and helps us grow in alignment with our vision.  God does not use casual seekers for the advancement of His kingdom; He relies on those who are consistent and committed. Persistence in prayer and faith is key to receiving an...

You are worthy O Lord..

You are worthy O Lord.. The twenty-four elders fall down before Him who sits on the throne and worship Him who lives forever and ever. They cast their crowns before the throne, saying, "You are worthy, O Lord, to receive glory, honour, and power; for You have created all things, and for Your pleasure, they are and were created." — Revelation 4:10-11 Even with the privilege of sitting around God's throne, these elders demonstrate a deep sense of humility before Him. When the living creatures give glory, honour, and thanks to God, the elders do not remain seated, proud of their crowns. Instead, they rise from their seats and fall down before God. In worship, they lay their crowns at His feet, proclaiming that He alone is worthy of glory, honour, and power. The crowned elders understand that there is only one King, and that King is God, deserving of all glory despite the honour they have been given. Like these elders, we must not allow the privileges, gifts, bles...

The Word became Answer

Image
The Word became Answer RSV, John 1:14: "And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, full of grace and truth; we have beheld his glory, glory as of the only Son from the Father." The Word, or Logos, became human as God's response to our need for salvation, addressing all our spiritual needs and the limitations we face as humans. The written word, the scriptures, is also provided by God to meet our needs. However, many struggle to find answers to their challenges in the scriptures due to their lack of understanding of them. But those who genuinely seek truth from the scriptures and are willing to obey God's guidance will find that the scriptures are revealed to them, providing a word from God. Casual reading of the scriptures will not yield meaningful benefits. Our comprehension of the scriptures plays a significant role in how we apply them and the guidance we receive. Therefore, we must not only read the scriptures but also study them carefully to uncove...
