 There was this school in this school where the teacher was teaching that God doesn't exist and her proof for God's nonexistence was the fact that you can't see God, therefore he doesn't exist and so she simply said, do you guys see a dashboard? Do you guys see the board? You know the chalkboard? Everybody says yes, we can see a chalkboard. Chalkboard exists. Then she pointed to her table, she said, do you guys see the table? Yes, we see the table, therefore the table exists. And then she asked the third question, she said, do you guys see God? Everybody said no. She said, well, we come to the conclusion God does not exist and Johnny sitting there he rose his hand and asked the teacher if he can ask a question of the class and the teacher says, Johnny, go ahead ask the question and the Johnny repeated few questions. She said, do you guys see the teacher's chair? They said, yes, we can see the teacher's chair. The teacher's chairs exist. Then he asked next question She said, do you guys see teacher's brain? They said, no we don't. She says based on that conclusion we all come to the mutual agreement teacher doesn't have any brain She said, why should we listen to someone with our brain? Of course, she's gonna say God doesn't exist because she has no brain And this little small Johnny just put the teacher in a very uncomfortable place Now I highly discourage you to do that to your teachers if they will propose these kind of arguments But the argument that something is real because you can see it with your physical eyes is not fair Can you see perfume? You can't You know most of you can't see music, but you can hear music your eyes are limited God did not create every information to be available to every sense that he gave you God allows information to be sometimes received by one sense and Completely not received by another and so your ears they depend on your eyes when it comes to seeing and your eyes They depend on your ears when it comes to hearing and your eyes your ears your touch depends on the nose when it comes to smelling So we all know that the reality of the physical world cannot be perceived by one sense Exactly same thing is applied to spiritual world spiritual world is real Spiritual world is as real as you are your thoughts are spiritual in the sense. They cannot be detected by a microscope Your motives cannot be detected by a machine There's no machine in the world. They can detect your consciousness But we all know sitting here where the atheists agnostic or Christians. We all come to the same conclusion We have thoughts we have a mind and we have a conscience And if you're sitting here today and you doubt that you have a mind or you doubt that you have thoughts Or you doubt that you have a consciousness you need to see a psychiatrist Because you have a problem Typical person whether atheists or not atheists will come to the same conclusion that they have a mind They have thoughts and they have consciousness and all of these three things cannot be detected by not one machine in our Tricities that means that these things are invisible. Therefore. They are spiritual Spiritual world is real spiritual world created a natural world spiritual world Influences the natural world spiritual world is older than natural world and spiritual world over Rules and overrides the natural world as Christians We must be get more acquainted as spiritual beings with the spiritual world as Christians we must also Understand it is the will of God to show in our life in the supernatural ways God wants to do things. No man can explain God wants to do things in our life No men can get a credit for but God Today we live in the world We live in a generation that is hungry for supernatural right before the service I scroll through the movies in the local movie theater and three almost every weekend three to four movies in our movie theaters are all about zombies spirits haunted houses Horror or some kind of a supernatural activity? Why are these movies produced? Why is walking dead such a popular TV show? Why is anything that has to do with paranormal activity that was made with few hundred thousand dollars and became a and just a huge Sensation in our generation because our generation has an appetite for supernatural and many times that appetite is not Satisfied within the church and the Hollywood sees that appetite and since they're only interested in making money They feed that appetite with things that actually harm people instead of help them God wants us as Christians us as church is to have a healthy Desire for the supernatural and that supernatural desire for that supernatural is fully satisfied in the scriptures of God because somebody say a man The church is supernatural Jesus's ministry was supernatural one third of his ministry. He cast out demons He addressed the spirits and the darkness and the demons and the curses in people's lives But after a while when the church became popular because of Constantine Emperor Constantine He made Christianity stop persecution stopped and he kind of make Christianity famous And when Christianity became famous, Holy Spirit was no longer necessary to advance the cause of the good news People relied on the Holy Spirit, but he was no longer as needed. I was before and Holy Spirit whenever he is not needed He draws away After a while we know what happened to the church, you know crusades and so many other bad things that happen For which the church still gets the rap from the world or well look at you guys what you've done But that's exactly what happens to a church when the church becomes drift away from the things that are Central in the Bible and the things that are central is God's power God's spirit and God's presence It's like the Chinese Christians that came to United States and upon leaving United States They asked them what is your opinion about the American Christians us and they said we are so amazed and surprised and shocked with how much You guys can do in America without God You know it's sad, but it's sadly true a lot of times if you remove the Holy Spirit from our lives Or even from our church services nothing really would change But if you remove the Holy Spirit from the Bible everything changes If you remove the Holy Spirit from the people who live outside of United States or Western countries everything changes I want to speak to you briefly today on the topic of curses very controversial topic But for us it has nothing to do with Controversy it has to do with helping people who are suffering and who are in need as you heard David's testimony And you hear testimonies in our church a lot of people who get freed from demons people who get freed from curses Most of you you already know our church is known for that kind of things Well, I believe the church of Jesus is supposed to be known for those kind of things And though this topic is debated in many circles and many places for us. It's not a topic to debate It's a topic to encourage people so people can find freedom in the name of Jesus Christ. Can I get a witness in this place? There is few types of curses the first one that's common one and that's the generational curse a Generational curse is when a curse gets passed on from one generation to another As statistics says if your father was an alcoholic you have a ten times Higher likelihood of becoming an alcoholic I remember reading a story this today actually about a correction officer who was working in the prison And he noticed he met this man who was in prison because he molested his own child And after a few months of praying for this man He finally led him to Jesus Christ and this man repented of his sins and he mentioned how his own father molested him And he mentioned how his father was molested and and this correction officer who was a Christian He says I can't believe such a disgusting thing that happened in this family And he says my idea that generational curses are not real. He said it was shattered into pieces by meeting this family Sometimes we bury our head in the sand and we pretend the reality doesn't exist But the Bible says iniquity of the fathers get visited up to four generations There is possible to be in the family where there is a curse and it passes on from one family to another There is a story about two famous families And these families lived about a hundred years ago. One of them is Jonathan Edwards and the other one is Max Jukes and This is a long story about how they got circulated to but I'll just read difference between their families You can see on one the guy who looks like a priest He represents the Edwards and the other guy who represents Jukes. Most of you heard this. I'm gonna repeat it for you 300 out of a thousand two hundred of This guy's descendants so one out of four They were very very poor One out of four died an infancy from lack of good care and lack of good conditions 50% of women know 50 women they lived in a very promiscuous Like prostitution lifestyle 400 men and women were physically wretched early by their own wickedness seven were murderous 60 had had were habitual thieves who spent an average 12 years each in lawlessness 130 were criminals who were convinced more than once of a crime Now compare around the same time this man's family Jonathan Edwards one of them was was a US vice president Three of them were US senators three of them were governors three of them were mayors 13 were college presidents 30 were judges 65 were professors 80 held public office service a hundred were lawyers a hundred were missionaries pastors and theologians Definitely in this family and in this family. There were few people who were doing good but the most of the family Had really bad and the other one most of the family was doing really good Generational curses are real we see that in the Bible like David's family And then we see the souls family where it seems like a crooked tree and the other we see were somewhat established Tree where people follow God's path and God's will and God wants to break Generational curses and release Generational blessings upon our life. Can I get a witness in this place? The second curse that is predominant is called a caste curse a caste curse is when somebody Pronounces a curse on you when you did them harm The scripture says curses without a cause don't stick Meaning if somebody curses you if somebody hires a witch to pronounce a spell on you But you did no harm to that person those curses they will never stick But if the curses are pronounced on you and you caused somebody pain those curses will stick If you're not a follower of Jesus and there is no protection on your life of the blood of Jesus then those curses stick It's important to understand that caste curses affect people who are casting them as well as those directed to Caste curses don't just work for those who receive them. It's also for those who send them remember hearing a story of a young man who wanted to Punish a girl because she didn't like him He liked the girl and she didn't like him back So he went to a witch doctor now It's not dominant today where people go to which doctors if they want to get us somebody we do a lot of other nastier things today But in those days people would go to a witch doctor He went to a witch doctor and he said I want to cast a spell on her meaning I want to destroy her life The witch doctor of course asked for some money He gave her some money and then she created a lock and she says I want you to pronounce all the nasty things You want to happen in this girl's life? So he go ahead just open up his mouth and just let it let it out said all day. I want her to do that This bad I want her to be sick. I want her to die I want her to have this and that he said that and the witch locked the lock and threw the lock in the river and the key somewhere else and Exactly everything this man pronounced became real in this girl's life until few years later Everything he pronounced on her life started to happen in his He came to church asking God to change his life and the prophecy was spoken to him saying there is a lock and That lock is the cause of all of your problems. He says which lock and The prophet revealed he says a lock where you destroyed someone's destiny You cursed somebody and that curse is now working against you as well The Bible says to us as Christians don't curse your enemies Bless them because everything you send their way is coming back at you Some of you saw the video. Take a look at this video. You most of you saw this. It's karma. It's his best Pray for her It's like curses You release it and it comes back right at your face You hit somebody or you want to destroy the milk or you want to steal something and you run You hit something else You want to hit the horse or the horse gets you back. You want to hit some elderly people? Or this what happens? You want to hit that innocent animal? You want to hit a sign? Well, the sign hits you back That's exactly how received curse curses cast curses work Anytime you feel obligated or somebody hurts you somebody causes you harm and you think you know what? I wish they'll drop dead. I wish somebody will do worse to them. I wish they break up I wish they will be sick. Remember you're sending a ball at the wall. It will hit them. It will hit you back You can't throw mud in somebody's face without getting your hands dirty Cast curses work all the time But they many times they backfire on the people sending them not just the people receiving them a third type of curse is a earned curse It's a curse that we draw upon our life by indulging in rebellious ways against God The first time curse was mentioned in the Bible was when Adam Revealed against God. It's interesting when Adam disobeyed God God didn't threaten him with hell a Curse came upon the earth a curse came upon their family and As a result we see two children no one else in the world and one child kills another one That's a disaster. That's a curse on the family. We see Adam being kicked out of paradise because of the curse No, we're in the Old Testament We see God promising take people to heaven if they obey him but God says if you obey me I give you a blessing if you rebel against me God didn't say I'm gonna send you to hell in the Old Testament He says hell is gonna be unleashed in the form of a curse Curses are real and when we step on the territory of sin guys What we do is we draw like a magnet a curse into our life and it begins to work and it begins to destroy our life. I Remember hearing a story of a man who really wanted to get married But either he was not good-looking or didn't have a personality But he just didn't have a luck and he had this particular girl He was so fascinated by but she just wouldn't even give him a time of the day And so he decided to go and use spiritual means to manipulate her And so he went to some lady who used a charm on him and she told him if you take this soap and you bathe yourself And then you go where she is she will like you He paid for soap and there was a charm. It was a spiritual manipulation. It was demonic So he took that soap washed himself in that soap and he went in and the girl Adam Over start to like him He's a man this works When it got more soap until he proposed to that girl kept washing himself in this charm of soap To keep getting this girl and eventually they got married after a few months of marriage the soap stopped working and The girl realized she married The craziest guy on this planet and what she did is she first burned his clothes Then she burned his house And then she wanted to burn him and that's when he brought this crazy girl to church Saying she is crazy as Prayer was being offered for them the pastor of the church who God uses supernaturally He looks at him and he says the problem is not the crazy girl. He says you're the crazy guy He says you went to the devil to get her and you used manipulation manipulation through witchcraft and through spells to get her and now what happened is you got her the Devil's ways and the devil gave you one thing but with another hand he took what your life depends on He says you're the one that needs deliverance not her and After he prayed for her and he prayed for him They received deliverance and God restored their marriage and they still stay together and God gave them a second chance You can't go to the devil for help and expect not to get a curse with it When we step on the Satan's territory, we draw a curse into our life when we walk with God We draw a blessing into our life. Can somebody say amen? The second part of this message I want to speak to you about how to overcome those curses if you have a Bible Let's go together with me to Galatians chapter 3 verse 13 and verse 14 If you do not have a Bible you can look at the screen and I will read Christ has redeemed us from the curse of the law Having become cursed for us for it is written Cursed is anyone who hangs on a tree That the blessing of Abraham might come upon the Gentiles in Christ Jesus That we might receive the promise of the Holy Spirit through faith. I Want you to see the amazing part Christ has redeemed us from the curse of the law The law is ten commandments. We know the law is not cursed. The law is good But when you break the law, it brings curse and the Bible says in here that Jesus came to redeem us from the Consequences of breaking the law, which is curse and Jesus Became cursed for us. So not only Jesus took our curse on the cross But he became cursed for us and the Bible explains how cursed is anyone who hangs on a tree today A cross is a symbol of Christianity Then cross was a symbol of a curse Today cross is a beautiful jewelry Then cross was a curse place It was a symbol of a curse and Jesus died on the cross to remove the curse Not just to free me from my sin but to deliver me from the Consequences of my sin and break the power of curse over our life can somebody say amen and not only that But it says in here that the blessing of Abraham Might come on those who are Gentiles in Christ Jesus that we might receive the promise of the Holy Spirit So we see here How we overcome the curse in our lives Operating in our lives number one is that we have to see ourself as Abraham's children the cross Connects us to Abraham's family The cross Disconnects us from the curses of our family Abraham was a good man and Abraham was a very blessed man You know We thank God for our families, but how many of you secretly don't raise your hand. You would wish to switch your family just for a week a Month a year a decade a live templates Don't raise your hand because your parents are here Your siblings are here, but but we all some of you like I don't care faster. I want it now I Think God secretly knew that our families are good and we love our families We appreciate our families But but we all know that it would have been awesome to be born in a in a different family And God gives us a chance to be in our physical family with our physical family to switch spiritually to a better family To belong to a family and God gives us this family family of Abraham Where Abraham becomes your spiritual father? Well, you begin to accept and anticipate the blessings of Abraham to roll on your life Generational blessings on your life through Jesus Christ to overcome curses. You have to Mentally see yourself as a child of Abraham Abraham had a name First his name was Abraham Abraham means glorious father That's sufficient and enough to have one child few children, but God comes to Abraham and says Abraham I'm gonna bless you. I'm gonna give you so much stuff. I'm gonna give you health I'm gonna give you this and that and Abraham. I'm gonna change your name God. Why do you want to change my name? See? Long after you're gonna be dead. I'm gonna send my Jesus. He's gonna die on the cross There's gonna be so many families Latino families Russian families American families black families brown families All kinds of families and they all gonna live in their life because of their past sins in curses And I want them to benefit and to be getting generational blessing from you So I'm gonna change your name to a father of many Nations that when in Jesus Christ they will be your children the blessing on your life is gonna go on their life Abraham the blessing on your life will not only go to the Jews because you're a father of many nations Russian nations American nation Canadian nation African nation all kinds of nations who will believe in Jesus Christ that blessing will go on them as well Mentally when you see your life, and maybe it's under a curse the first step is you have to mentally see yourself Spiritually I have already a blessing and my father is Abraham Because somebody say a man The signs of a curse are following is The chronic disease Phobias and fears premature deaths Loneliness and divorce poverty and lack repeated disasters These are signs of curses They are described in a Bible in book of Doronomy What God describes when curses come what happens and this is kind of what happens when we live a life of curse We have chronic Constant diseases we have phobias and fears anxiety mental disorders and mental breakdowns Premature deaths constant loneliness and divorce poverty and lack and repeated accidents and disasters That's what happens when we live a life under a curse But when we mentally begin to switch and we say we are with Abraham. Well, Abraham was healthy So healthy that father children at the age of 100 and when his wife passed to glory He kept on having children he remarried and not only Abraham But Sarah because she was under blessing at the age of 90 She was so good-looking without a plastic surgery without makeup without lotions that kings were killing for her All the ladies you're a daughter of Sarah There is no greater blessing no better plastic surgeon than the blessing of Abraham and a blessing of Sarah Blessing of Abraham means you are gonna be strong physically That doesn't means you will never have a flu day or week But that means because of that Spiritually you accept that I am gonna be healthy. That's why we work out That's why we eat healthy. That's why we stay away from bad foods That's why we don't take anything wrong into our body like alcohol and drugs That's why we don't tattoo our bodies. You may say is it wrong? See I got this nice car and the moment I got it It's an Audi and it had stickers on the bottom Audis Audi signed stickers the first thing I did with that car is I ripped those stickers off and washed it off Because I would always put stickers on my Camry when you get an Audi you don't want stickers on it Let the car shine for itself. It has enough beauty and glory in itself a lot of Christians They put stickers on themselves. Listen, you are a temple of the Holy Spirit. Let you shine You already beautiful enough and if you're not you got Abraham Keep walking in that blessing. Let the glory of God shine through you Watch your body and receive the blessing of Abraham. Your body is gonna be strong Your body is gonna be beautiful and your body is going to be blessed by God somebody say amen Blessing of Abraham is not only you're gonna have a health, but you're gonna have faith Abraham was known to be healthy man, and he had faith and dreams not nightmares. He lived a long life He was married. He was happy. He was in abundance and generosity we know Abraham to be a wealthy man and God wants you to be a person who receives Abrahamic blessing means God wants you to live like Abraham God bless your father. God bless your mother But spiritually you your father your mother your grandparents We all can come under a different line of the blessing of Abraham We can live financially different. We don't have to live from poverty and lack That's where you may be in a reality But today the revelation of God says that Abraham is your standard and we spiritually connect to that I remember talking to a wonderful young man who just gotten saved in our ministry He OD'd before and he was pronounced dead one time at the Accident scene, you know this man never had money only bills and court court dates restraining orders not restraining orders all kinds of You know orders to to show up to court and everything and he was telling me today. He's of lad You won't believe it. He says I am completely dead free. He said this week all of my debts are paid He said before I was so scared to receive any letter from the court And he said recently I got another letter from the court and my previous mail I'm a previous place where I lived and when I called that place and I asked them Please open that letter because he said the only letters I got from the court was bills or you have to come to court And so I was expecting another one when they opened the letter and he says you won't believe it lad in that letter was a refund He said who gets refund from court He says God changed my life so much. I get refunds from the same places. I used to go and pay stuff See, that's what happens when God's blessing blessing of Abraham begins to kick into your life. Your life begins to change Yes, it might not happen overnight. I'm not saying you're gonna be a millionaire But what's gonna happen is that you begin to slowly come out of debt You begin to come out from financial bad decisions and God begins to give you enough and more than enough and you begin to be a Blessing to your generation somebody say a man, you know one of the mentors the people that I follow and listen to You know this pastor at one time 15 years ago He was able only to give a hundred dollars to God a month because his income was so small But he kept dreaming that God one day I'll be able to give thousands I heard his latest testimony and he said today. I no longer work at the church I don't receive salary from the church yet every month. I give back to the church $20,000 and that's not in America. It's in the country's outside of America and as of this month He was able to give with his wife 60 cars to people. I was like man, I wish I would be in his church That's blue Abrahamic blessing when God blesses you enough that you're able to give When God blesses you enough that you're able to bless other people and walk out from financial source If you're in financial problems today, remember God says through the cross you can be connected to Abraham You can have Abraham as your daddy can somebody say a man How do I apply that say to yourself constantly? I'm not cursed I'm blessed Look at yourself in a mirror when you have bills and overdue bills and maybe collections Losing your home, or maybe reality is going down Make sure in your mind you don't go down with your reality in your mind You will say well, but what difference does it make it makes a big difference because your reality can always change Make sure your mental attitude stays Anchored on the cross the curse was redeemed from and I am blessed with Abraham The Bible says let the redeem of the Lord say so when you redeem from the curse You gotta say so you can't wait for your bills to change you can't wait for your health to change You can't wait for you to get married and somebody to treat you well before you look at yourself and you tell yourself I am redeemed from the curse of the law not because I feel so not because the bills say so not because the doctors report Say so it's because God says so and God's word is higher than the reality God's word created a reality it can change it Can somebody say a man? Say to yourself every day when you don't feel blessed say to yourself. I am blessed. These are not empty words You're not just positively speaking There is a blood and the cross two thousand years ago that is backing you up You're not just something you thought in your head and you're just trying to keep yourself happy because you read book secret No, it's because you read book called the Bible and the Bible says in the cross You will redeem from the curse of the law and you're blessed with Abraham Tell yourself all the time. I am a blessed man. God is on my side. Can somebody say amen? the second aspect of it is Victory on the cross doesn't end the war it starts it Victory on the cross does not end the war it starts it Which means that when Jesus Christ died on the cross he paid for everything a hundred percent but That victory Doesn't end the war for you. It actually begins a war for you and let me explain When David was facing Goliath and Goliath was big and buff And the Bible says that David came against Goliath and he threw a stone in his head and Goliath fell when Goliath fell The war wasn't over actually War just begun The only difference is by falling of the Goliath in the heart of every Israelite Exploded faith and Aurora arose inside of them before they were hiding But now they are victors because Goliath fell and because Goliath fell a war that broke out was the war where they ran at their Enemy with the victory inside already Before they had defeat in their mind they were running from the enemy But now their champion David defeated the champion of the enemy and they ran at the enemy and they defeated them The difference between you and the world You don't fight for victory. You fight from victory Your victory has already been won on the cross But when Jesus wins a victory over curse for you on the cross That means that inside of you rises up a shout Inside of you rises up anger Inside of you rises up a fight That says this is illegal in my life, and I will not allow it or permit it to live and thrive in my life And you go and fight it not as a victim trying to get a victory But as a victor trying to secure a victory for the glory of God Amen Sometimes people come for prayer line and they get delivered from a demon and Everything is good But God wants to teach you not just how to get free. God wants you to teach you how to fight Sometimes you get healed and the sickness is gone and then few days later symptoms reappear and people throw up their hands in the air and say Oh, I'm sick again God is not just trying to get you healed. God is also trying to teach you how to be a fighter Sometimes you get lonely and you get freed from that loneliness and that depression and everything is good until you had that low time and Those emotions they surface again And this is the moment that you have to not throw up your hands in the air and says oh, I'm so helpless I'm just gonna sleep in my bed all night and all day and just watch Netflix and cry myself to sleep You got to rise up and be a warrior and fight Not for victory, but from victory already purchased on the cross of Jesus Christ Amen The Bible says in Christ we are more than conquerors More than conquerors. How can you be a more than a conqueror? See in the world you're a conqueror when you win the battle in God's kingdom You win the battle in Christ so you can be a conqueror we get victory before we fight and That's why we fight When the devil uses our emotions when the devil uses our thoughts against us And this is usually what the battle happens you get free God delivers you from drugs or maybe you stopped at bad relationship Or you finally decide to commit your life and you decide to come to morning prayers or you decide to you know What I'm gonna begin to tithe I'm gonna begin to live according to God's word and everything seems to be good for first few weeks or first few months and Then the feelings begin to rage against you your emotions come in and those emotions are clouded with rejection fear You just don't feel like doing it apathy laziness for some people. It's depression begins to crawl back in for others It's the craving to smoke again for some It's the craving to look at pornography or to inhale in that drugs people begin to invite you to the same concerts and nightclubs That you used to go to and that thing begins to come back those feelings those thoughts begin to come back And this is the time where the devil tells you you're not really free Especially when the person stumbles or falls and the devil begins to come and flood you with the thoughts of guilt and shame It says listen, you're never gonna change This whole thing that people are getting changed. That's for special people and you're not those special people This is the moment you have to rise up and not tell yourself But tell that wicked devil so listen devil you got a wrong person You cannot speak like this to me and you gotta tell that devil listen Satan get behind me I may feel down, but I am seated in the heavenly places with Christ. I may feel depressed, but I am blessed with God The first thing that I told you is tell yourself I am blessed, but the second thing is you have to tell the devil to shut up You have to tell those feelings that devil is using against you that guilt and that shame that fear and that loneliness That depression and that disappointment you have to look at that even if you don't feel it your feelings Don't matter what matters is your fighting spirit and Satan can smell a fighting spirit 2000 miles away When you rise up and tears are rolling down your eyes But you got that stone in a slingshot and you see devil you come against me with fear You come against me with loneliness. You're big and tough and you've been talking for 40 days, but listen I am small, but my God is big and I'm gonna throw this rock rock at your head And you rise up and you shake off that shame and you shake off that guilt and you shake off that depression No matter how you feel what matters is how you fight Because God is on the other side and watching his little warrior God's angels are watching you never left alone It's that God wants to produce within you not a wussy or a whining spirit, but a warrior spirit You're made in the image and likeness of God God never lost the battle and he was never afraid of one Lions give birth to lions Eagles give birth to eagles and God created you and inside of you He placed a fighting spirit and he wants that to grow inside of you But it will never grow inside of you until you throw it into a place where your emotions are raging Your thoughts are screaming and you feel like the world the weight of the world is on your shoulder And that moment don't just cry out to God and say God help me open up your mouth and tell that wicked devil to go where he came from Jesus said when you faced the mountain he didn't say pray about it. He didn't say cry about it He didn't say call all your friends and posted on Facebook and take a picture of it He didn't say whine about it. He says open your mouth And speak to it When you always speak about it, but you never speak to it You're not gonna change it speak to your emotions Speak to your thoughts Speak to your circumstances learn to speak to your situation You're not gonna change your curse over your life if you zip your lip And you wait the devil to bombard you with thoughts and keep filling your mind with his voice It's about time you lift your voice When I think of this and this is personal to me Because like you I was freed from certain things And like you and I I had those things come back And at times I felt like I lost my freedom I've ministered to so many people Who have this problem who got freed And then they fell once and the devil lied to them saying You're the same person you've never changed and you will never change And my goal was to encourage them Stop listening to the devil get your sword and stab him Stab those lies get rid of them out of your head. You're a warrior There's a movie that always helps me There's a one clip of that movie and I'm gonna show it to you It's it's it's very cheesy movie to some of you and it's written by c.s. Lewis. It's a clip from Narnia But you will get the spiritual point. I want you to see the right now Your emotions are like a beautiful pet on a good day. They're so friendly. Your emotions are so cute They're so nice They make you so happy your thoughts They send you good vibes But the moment satan comes in your emotions turn into wolves They raid at you. They want to eat you up They want to destroy you. They want to put you literally in an emotional grave And in that moment You got to do what this guy did Oh Come on we've already been through this before we both know you haven't got it in you That's you right there and that's your emotions on the bad day And that's jesus Doing the doing the prayer line play your weapons This is Peter but he always leaves you one to do it on your own you may think you're a king But you're going to die Okay, stop crying. He didn't get hurt. This is when the first time you overcome your own battle After him you lead you to edmund peter Clean your sword rise Sir peter wolf spain Knight of narnia forgive me, but when I hear about defeating the devil, that's the only thing that I think about I sometimes feel exactly like that guy The pet that was okay and then turns into a lion or turns into a wolf that begins to attack me And you begin to feel like there's few more moments and you're alone and god is there. It seems like he's not helping Why is he not helping because jesus didn't only come to free you He also came to empower you And you will never know what you have Until you have to use what you have Until you have to stand on god's word until you have to fight those bad feelings that satan sends until you the circumstances come And you feel alone.
