LOOSE HIM AND LET HIM GO:DELIVERANCE CONSCIOUSNESS

LOOSE HIM AND LET HIM GO:DELIVERANCE CONSCIOUSNESS

Walking in deliverance mentality.

John 11:44 "And he that was dead came forth, bound hand and foot with grave clothes: and his face was bound about with a napkin. Jesus saith unto them, Loose him, and let him go."

          So much detail was given to the death and resurrection of          Lazarus despite the fact that he wasn’t the only case of miraculous raising from the dead by Jesus Christ during His earthly ministry ( luke7:11-16). However, Lazarus case was the only one where Jesus spoke of being the resurrection and the life to the hearing of the disciples (John11:25).The fact we shall be resurrected after physical death is profound and it is the core of the Christian faith.

        The resurrection power of the risen and glorified Christ is already at work in the life of believers. It is evident in the various testimonies of miraculous restoration experienced by believers the world over. This is part of the benefits of the newness of life inherent in practicing the Christ-like life through faith.

        Like the death and resurrection of Lazarus, the spiritual rebirth did not include our emotions and physical bodies. Therefore, we carry along the old ways of doing things into the new life in Christ and they obstruct our growth and the manifestations of our potentials just like Lazarus’ ‘grave clothes’. The ‘grave clothes’-mentality must be removed for us to enjoy the full benefits of the resurrected life in Christ (Gal 5:16-17). They are habits and attitudes, some of which are mentioned in Galatians 5: Gal 5:19-21 “When you follow the desires of your sinful nature, the results are very clear: sexual immorality, impurity, lustful pleasures, idolatry, sorcery, hostility, quarreling, jealousy, outbursts of anger, selfish ambition, dissension, division, envy, drunkenness, wild parties, and other sins like these…. anyone living that sort of life will not inherit the Kingdom of God.” These habits exist as thoughts .

     When we received Christ, we crucified these habits on the cross with Him and are to daily declare that we are the righteousness of Christ for the new nature to fully manifest in us by faith. The qualities of this new nature are mentioned in  Gal 5:22-23NLT “.. the Holy Spirit produces.. in our lives: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. …..!” These are the ingredients needed for a long lasting and sustained manifestation of the deliverance power of Jesus Christ in our businesses, marriages, finances, relationships and communities. We achieve this by maintaining positive emotions in the face of negative circumstances by thinking on things that are lovely, true and of good report. Negative thoughts beget negative attitudes.

      At salvation we experience total deliverance from all satanic power and are translated into God’s kingdom beyond the reach of any evil force (colossian1:12).Therefore, there is no such thing as a born again Christian being possessed by a marine spirit or any other spirit or being cursed because you ate demonic food in the dream: all food belongs to Christ( 1Cor.3:21-23).Satan is a liar. Such doctrines are contrary to scriptures (Luke10:19).Satan can’t dwell in the same body with the Holy Ghost (1cor10:21). A change of attitude by the Holy Ghost is indispensible to witness God’s power in our lives. He’ll only change what you ask Him to change in your life. Receive grace to walk in your deliverance consciousness as you read this now in Jesus name.
