FROM BONDAGE TO BUTTERFLIES Episode 23
THE BEAUTIFUL: Our Emotional, Physical & Spiritual CONDITION
Bearing My Beauty
Sorrow of Heart through seasons of grief
Days turn to years with no real relief
Almost 3 years now since that fateful fall
Hollowed leg atrophied. No strength at all
Stayed in a place with no Movement to see
Every day listening to the Lies we Believe
Time takes its’ toll over all that we bear
Emotionally, Physically, and Spiritually there
Living each Day, to just make it through
Battling everything we need to do
Always trying to get one step ahead
Though our Worth slips right by us, as failure instead
Trauma has left us trapped in a place
Buried in Brokenness, hiding our face
Endlessly reliving the hurts of our past
Reminding us then, our dreams didn’t last
Our Hopes getting closed off from tragedies’ hold
Not knowing they transform Scars into Gold
Fighting a fight that cannot be won
Never seeing our Beauty bought by The Son
God has a Plan much greater than ours
We see only seconds, minutes, and hours
We don’t see our progress, how far we have come
The Healing that’s happened since you have begun
All of our scars, the wounds that you bear
The Trauma you’ve seen, the helplessness there
Are in the Rebuilding of all you have lost
Rebuilding takes time, Paid at a great cost
I come alongside you to carry your cares
I lift up your Spirit and wipe away tears
I cleanse all unrighteousness, Healing your Heart
Forgiving all sins to make a new start
I give you New Life, New Hopes, and New Dreams
A LIFE unfathomable to those who Believe
I use all the Bad for your greater Good
Bearing My Beauty to this Broken World
Fears in the Night
Memories crashing over me
Waking me from a sound sleep
Flooding thoughts of desperate days
Lived within a dark black haze
Father lift me from my bed
Take these memories from my head
Bring me back to this safe place
Wrap me in your arms’ embrace
Torrents rushing, I can’t breathe
Waves of rage with no relief
Hurricane within my home
Powerless to stand alone
Flailing arms in waters deep
Drowning hopes, no dreams to keep
All washed away within my grief
Jesus! Jesus! Rescue me!
You are safe here in My grasp
Cling to me, is all I ask
I will lift you from the waves
Of your deepest Darkest days
I have given you new Life
Rescued you from Bitter strife
Calmed the waters of your storm
Wrapped you in Love to keep you warm
I have surely set you Free
Come now Daughter, follow me
I will help you. Take my hand.
I AM the strength you need to stand
Do not relive the fear and dread
Remember as you look ahead
Your past will not be washed away
Only the pain you hold today
Washed away by flooding Grace
Forgiving tears cleansing your face
Restoring what was lost, you see
Bringing Healing Ministry.
FROM BONDAGE TO BUTTERFLIES Episode 23
THE BEAUTIFUL: Our Emotional, Physical & Spiritual CONDITION
Jeremiah 6:19
New King James Version
19 Hear, O earth!
Behold, I will certainly bring calamity on this people—
The fruit of their thoughts,
Because they have not heeded My words
Nor My law, but rejected it.
When we walk in Sin, in an area of our life, we give the Enemy a foothold. The Authority we allow him to HOLD in our lives, gives him the right to hold us.
We allow him the right to HOLD us, in Bondage to our Sin. We allow him the right to HOLD us, in Bondage to our Sickness and Disease, which is the fruit of the Sinful Root. We allow him the right to HOLD us, in Bondage, and to bring Death, and destruction into our lives with it.
When we can begin to see all Evil as our Spiritual Enemy, we can begin to Fight and Win this Battle, waged against us in our Minds, in our Bodies, and in our lives! Today, we can begin to live in the Victory God has provided for us. Today, we can begin to move From Bondage to Butterflies! Today, we can begin to walk in the Spiritual Freedom Jesus Christ has bought for us on the Cross!
When we think of Sin, we usually think of other people’s sins. We think of those sins that have come against us. Because we hear their Voice. Because we Remember them, and we carry them with us. Or we think of those big sins, like Murder, Adultery, Sexual Immorality, and Violent crimes by Violent people. We compare ourselves to those people, so ours don’t seem so bad.
But what about those other sins, we quietly live with in our Hearts? What about Unforgiveness? What about Bitterness? What about Hating your Brother in your heart? What about Hating your Mother in your heart? What about Hating yourself in your heart?
What about living in constant Self-Rejection, Self-Condemnation, and Guilt? What about Performance and Perfectionism? What about Control? What about the Drivenness to Succeed? What about Worry? What about living in a constant state of Fear and Anxiety? What about Sorrow, Disappointment, Discouragement, and Depression? These are the sins we are staying stuck in. These are the sins we are Bound by. These are the sins that Hold us. These are the sins we Hold onto.
Sin separates us from God. My Beautiful Believer, let me tell you this. Anything that isn’t Faith expressing itself in LOVE is sin. Because without Faith, it is impossible to please God.
Any area of our life, where we succumb to Temptation, and succeed in falling into Sin, allows the Enemy access, or entrance into our lives, because we have become ONE with that Sin. It is this area we struggle with most often, and is the area we are constantly being Tempted in. These areas where we wrestle the most in our Minds, are the areas where we have become a Spiritual Fall Risk. We have been Trained in the Sin Nature, so now it is Second Nature.
There is none that is perfect, but one man Jesus Christ, who was tempted in all things, and was without sin! Our Victory is in Him! His Victory is ours! My Beautiful Believers, we are just learning how to Fight this Battle. Today, I am going Minister Truth to you and teach you to see your Spiritual Enemy! To SEE is to BE SET FREE.
THE HEALING OF YOUR HEART - SEE & BE FREE
There are many ways our Hearts can be hurt during our Life events. God wants our Hearts to be healed, in the midst of our Traumas. God wants us to see where we have been deceived so that we can be freed from the Bondage we have been living in. He wants to open your eyes, and give you understanding, so you can Identify your Spiritual Enemy, that is holding you captive in your Heart, and in your Mind, and in your Life.
I am now going to list some Events in Life, which could be Door Points to the Enemy, and the possible spirits that may result from such a Trauma.

Nehemiah 9:2 (KJV)

HOMEWORK IS TO READ AND PRAY PSALM 51
*Renounce each spirit that you recognize that has been working throughout the generations of your Family line on both sides, all the way back to Adam and Eve.
*Repent & Renounce each spirit that you have served in your own personal life. (This may be toward, yourself, God, or other people.)
Psalm 51 (KJV)
51 Have mercy upon me, O God, according to thy lovingkindness: according unto the multitude of thy tender mercies blot out my transgressions.
2 Wash me throughly from mine iniquity, and cleanse me from my sin.
3 For I acknowledge my transgressions: and my sin is ever before me.
4 Against thee, thee only, have I sinned, and done this evil in thy sight: that thou mightest be justified when thou speakest, and be clear when thou judgest.
5 Behold, I was shapen in iniquity; and in sin did my mother conceive me.
6 Behold, thou desirest truth in the inward parts: and in the hidden part thou shalt make me to know wisdom.
7 Purge me with hyssop, and I shall be clean: wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow.
8 Make me to hear joy and gladness; that the bones which thou hast broken may rejoice.
9 Hide thy face from my sins, and blot out all mine iniquities.
10 Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within me.
11 Cast me not away from thy presence; and take not thy holy spirit from me.
12 Restore unto me the joy of thy salvation; and uphold me with thy free spirit.
13 Then will I teach transgressors thy ways; and sinners shall be converted unto thee.
14 Deliver me from bloodguiltiness, O God, thou God of my salvation: and my tongue shall sing aloud of thy righteousness.
15 O Lord, open thou my lips; and my mouth shall shew forth thy praise.
16 For thou desirest not sacrifice; else would I give it: thou delightest not in burnt offering.
17 The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit: a broken and a contrite heart, O God, thou wilt not despise.
18 Do good in thy good pleasure unto Zion: build thou the walls of Jerusalem.
19 Then shalt thou be pleased with the sacrifices of righteousness, with burnt offering and whole burnt offering: then shall they offer bullocks upon thine altar.
