The Enemy is Counting on your Silence
In this season you cannot let anybody have so much authority over your life that they block you from growing and developing. Many of you this afternoon are being held captive by your past hurts and have now given someone else the authority over your ability to become transparent about what hurt you, who hurt you and why they hurt you.
It is a known fact that 76% of the women who have been violated did not report it.
Reason Being: 1) Relative 2) Credibility 3) Loyalty
Some of you still have beef with God because you feel that he did not propose any help, the reality is that you never opened your mouth to inquire of God’s assistance he knows what you have need of before you even ask but the rule is that you must ask.
The enemy is counting on you to never tell anyone of that violation that you are pregnant with, the pain and the distress that is holding you back from progressing forward, you can move, you can grow, you can develop. But if you don’t call on God and you know him you are violating him, because he has the keys to unlock the door to your future.
Matthew 11:28-30 (KJV)
28 Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. 29 Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. 30 For my yoke is easy, and
my burden is light.
There has been restoration but no restitution
So what is the sense of recovering all with no foundation?
When people look at you they consider your smile and appearance as the totality of your life being ok, the reality is that you have just learned how to make adjustments to where the pains use to be. If you keep thinking about it & talking about it, you’ll relive it everyday.
So you learn to adjust your heart so you don’t allow no one to do what they did last time, it doesn’t mean you’re over it, it means you have just learned how to maneuver through the pain, you know how to deal with without dealing with it.
So now you ask for victory, you don’t really want victory because victory is temporary, victory comes with a fight. You want deliverance because deliverance comes with the whole battle, most of you want this battle in your flesh and in your mind to be over.
You can’t beat the enemy with the tactics of the enemy
2 Chronicles 7:14 (KJV)
14 If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.
Close and Altar Call
God says if I hear their voice they’ll survive the worst season of their life
Seek after Him!
Call after Him!
Run after Him!
There’s an anointing on you that I need you to impress upon someone else ( Grab someone’s Hands)
