Everyone Is Dealing With Something

I don't care who you are, I've learned in my short life that #EVERYONE is dealing with something. People are carrying things that only Jesus can bear.
Because we can't bear the weight of it, often, we try to MEDICATE it, SEDATE it or REPUDIATE it!

The only way to get HEALING is for you to bring your BURDEN/PAIN into the LIGHT. The devil can only operate in darkness. However, when the light of Jesus shines/exposes him...his hands become tied & he has no choice but to FLEE! God wants to break the STRONGHOLDS that are holding you back.

1. AUTHORITY Every believer has the RIGHT it use the authority of Jesus' name to bind & take authority over the devil's activities. (Mark 3:27 - Bind the strong man). Use your mouth to SPEAK/COMMAND the devil to go in the name of Jesus! (Mark 16:17)

2. INTERCESSION Coming together with other believers for prayer is another way to intercede against strongholds. (Matthew 18:19 ..two or three agree) In addition, PRAYER & FASTING intensifies your faith! (Matthew 17:19-21 ...this kind does not go out except by prayer and fasting)

3. DISPLACEMENT Displace the devil with the PRESENCE of GOD! Where the presence of the Lord is, there is FREEDOM! The enemy cannot hand around where people are lifting up JESUS in worship! (2 Corinthians 6:14 ...For what fellowship has righteousness with lawlessness? and what communion has light with darkness?)

4. RESISTANCE Submit yourselves & draw close to God! The devil runs from SUBMITTED, YIELDED Christians who PRAY, FAST, WORSHIP and HUMBLE themselves to FOLLOW & OBEY God's Word. (James 4:7 ...Therefore submit to God. Resist the devil & he will flee from you!)

5. OCCUPATION Give NO PLACE to the devil! Once he departs, fill the void with God! Let righteousness be the standard RULE & BEHAVIOR. Don't wink at sin. Don't give the devil an inch in REBELLION, CORRUPTION or IMMORALITY because that's where he can find REFUGE & REBUILD his influence or strength! (Ephesians 4:27 ...give no place to the devil.)

6. FORTIFICATION Clothe yourself with God's armor! Take upon you daily, the full array of God's spiritual equipment that you may maintain battle-ready status! With the shield of faith, the sword of the Spirit (God's Word) & the other components of armor (Ephesians 6:13-17), you will be ready to RESIST and satanic assault & will be ready to ENGAGE the strongholds in others! (Ephesians 6:11 ...Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to sand against the wiles of the devil.)
