When a similar event or person
triggers these negative reactions again,
the
walls and self-defense mechanisms automatically go up
again. The more they are triggered, the stronger they
get. Meanwhile, the areas that need healing are sealed
in, like strongholds or emotional abscesses in the soul.
These walls not only
keep pain out, but also prevent healthy ministry and
healing from coming in.
What we
are describing here is not just a psychological process
but a spiritual result of breaking spiritual laws in the
spiritual realm like:
Sowing and reaping - Gal. 6:7-10
Dishonoring parents - Eph. 6:1-3
Judgmental attitudes - Matt. 7:1, Rom. 2:1-4
Bitter root expectation - Heb. 12:14-15
Restoration
Prayer Ministry
is more effective than secular mental health
because Jesus,
the Spirit of Truth, is able to forgive us and to bring
our old crop to death, so that He is free to bring us
into healing, body, soul and spirit. (See the
Cross Walk Prayer)
Just as light always overcomes darkness, so truth will
dispel the lies and misconceptions in our lives. The
passion of Christ is to visit with us daily, giving us
more insight so that we can know love ourselves, others
and God with all our hearts.
God is
not a time creature and he will heal you from conception
on, at all ages of development and in all areas of your
life, as you allow Him in. Just as we developed these
walls at all ages, all ages can be healed and brought
into harmony again. Finally, we are free to experience
peace and wholeness and to have
healthy relationships.
The
result is that we are released from reaping the negative
and are able to focus all of our talents, gifting and
energy on fulfilling our God given goals. We are more
pro-active and responsive, rather than reactive.
Restoration Prayer Ministry, at Cross Walk Life, will
also help to give you clarity and certainty to
understand your
personal purpose
and destiny.
Many of
us are exhausted from trying to improve
our performance,
so that we can be perfect enough to earn approval and
acceptance (that will hopefully would make us feel good
about ourselves.) Some of us ruined our health and lost
our peace trying to improve our relationships in our own
strength or with mental health modalities. Believe me,
no amount of education and knowledge can heal your
wounded spirit.
Sometimes, when others have hurt us, we have
unconsciously recorded IOUs
and now we expect our new
relationships to heal us or to make up for losses we
have experienced in the past. We may overreact or dump
our anger on them, out of hidden frustrations. We may
insist that they perform better too, so that we can be
more successful.
Restoration
Prayer Ministers are ministers who partner with Jesus to
bring truth, restoration and health into these areas and
take care of those IOU's!
