WHATEVER YOU LOSE ON EARTH SHALL BE LOOSED IN HEAVEN
“And I will give unto thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt bind on earth, shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven” (Matthew 16:19).
“And straightway his ears were opened, and the string of his tongue was loosed, and he spake plain” (Mark 7:35).
The Almighty God created the heavens and earth (Genesis 1:1) and made heaven to be His throne while the earth his footstool (Isaiah 66:1). The heaven, even the heavens are the Lord’s” (Psalm 115:16); and “the earth is the Lord’s, and the fulness thereof.” (Psalm 24:1). He sustains all things by the word of his power, both in heaven above and in the earth beneath.
He does as he pleases (Psalm 115:3) in the army of heaven and among the inhabitants of the earth, according to His will and Purpose. It is God’s desire that we are set free so that we can serve him effectively. Jesus Christ delivered the deaf and mute man, made his ears to be opened and his tongue loosed as well (Mark 7:34-35).
In our last series - THE GATES MUST BE OPENED , we discussed that a spiritual deaf and dumb man cannot serve God effectively, until the gates are opened unto him. The man’s deliverance was perfected in Heaven, Jesus had to look to heaven, waited on a heavenly command to bring an instant healing. “And looking up to heaven, he sighed, and saith unto him. Ephphatha, that is, be opened.” (Mark 7:34)

Heaven has a great role to play in human’s complete deliverance from the shackles of Satan; the final authority comes from heaven.
“And it shall come to pass in that day, I will hear, saith the LORD, I will hear the heavens, and they shall hear the earth; (Hosea 2:21); “And I will give unto thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven” (Matthew 16:19).
Heaven and earth were created by the same God, and are sustained by the same power, and governed from the same throne; and they must declare the glory of God (Psalm 19:1). Jesus reigns both among angels, and men; for he is Lord of all.
In the Beginning, the God of heaven walked in Paradise with Adam (Genesis 3:8), when all things on earth were then pure, and true, and happy. Then earth’s morning song was heard in heaven, and heaven’s hallelujahs floated down to earth at eventide. His will was done in the garden of Eden, and God wants His will to be done in our life and ministry, so that He can walk in our paradise.
IT MUST BE LOOSED IN HEAVEN
He has anointed His ministers as a flaming fire (Psalm 104:4), to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to them that are bound; (Isaiah 61:1) so that His will can be done on earth, as it is in Heaven. (Matthew 6:10).
He gave a good assurance of support to His servants to perfect the deliverance of those that are bound. Those that will carry out this task must also fulfill certain conditions.
He who loses another must not be tied. Can a man in police handcuffs release another fellow in handcuffs? It is not possible because they are both bound.
A CHOIR that's bound cannot bring down the glory of God in songs until they are loosed from the sway of talkativeness.” He that keepeth his mouth keepeth his life: but he that openeth wide his lips shall have destruction” (Proverbs 13:3).
AN EVANGELIST cannot function effectively and exercise his gifts unless he's loosed in heaven from Pride. “God resisteth the proud, but giveth grace unto the humble” (James 4:6).
The will of the Lord is done right and humbly in Heaven; and perfect purity is set in a frame of lowliness. Too often we fall into self-gratulation, and it defiles our best deeds. We whisper to ourselves, “I did that very well.” We flatter ourselves that there was no "self" in our conduct, but while we are laying that flattering unction to our souls, we are lying, as our self-contentment proves.
“And the evil spirit answered and said, Jesus, I know, and Paul I know; but who are ye? “(Acts 19:15).
God cannot set us upon the pinnacle if we don’t humble ourselves before Him. Brethren, Let's pray that the Lord will keep us low at his feet; so that He can used us for the expansion of His work on earth.
A PROPHET cannot prophesy nor see visions clearly unless he's freed in heaven from all impurities. APOSTLES are sent to make disciples of all nations and to take the gospel to the unreached people. They are regarded as Holy men, who convey God’s messages to the people. “Be ye holy; for I am holy”. (1Peter 1:16).
