Title: I am closing doors to guide you and keep you safely on my path. You can and have opened doors through your own will and the power of your soul and desires of your heart.
1 I am closing doors to guide you and keep you
safely on my path. You can and have opened doors
through your own will and the power of your soul
and desires of your heart. Know that I, your
Father know your desires, I know your needs in
advance and I have plans and destinies that you
still do not see. I have not abandoned, left or
deserted you.
2 I have revealed roots of sin in your heart,
strongholds that will keep you from walking in
true freedom and joy if they are not destroyed at
the root. My breaking has seemingly been harsh,
but do you not see that is that My hand of
discipline is for your good , the heart of a
loving Father? Do not allow your vision and
purpose to be clouded. Do not forget who I am,
what I have done, and what I have promised. You
will never walk in faith when you walk in
emotion. Emotion will always deceive.
3 You must find faith in your Spirit Man.in the
deepest part of who I created you to be. Your
inner place has been cracked through generational
sin and curses. The enemy would desire to
permanently cripple you by locking you into your
emotions. I desire to free you by repairing that
altar. The altar is the place of sacrifice and
consecration. It must be restored. I would that
you would offer your life and ALL that it
contains as a sacrifice, not only the areas that
you have learned to sacrifice for ministry or
areas that you have conquered.
4 I desire the things that you are ANGERED by, you
DOUBTlt you FEAR . True sacrifice is the giving
of your inner man to the leading of my spirit,
not being led by your emotions. I will guide you
. I do have direction for you. Do not be tossed
to and fro for it will bring fatigue. Wait, let
me renew you and breathe fresh upon you. When I
move, the doors will open wide and My light will
shine. You will walk in My strength, and
anointing and you will be secure that I am with
you.

6 - Soul power is not the same as strength of the
spirit. We must recognize the difference - Soul power is not necessarily evil or demonic,
but it does not carry the true power of the
spirit nor the same fruit - Often connected to the religious spirit
- Characterized by strong sense of emotional
passion, forced response, etc.
7 - Root level sin
- We must learn to diagnose spiritually so that we
are not simply spiritually medicating a result
or fruit of a root sin. - Example chronic depression can have a root of
self centeredness, fear, anger, or maybe simply
physical in nature as the result of chemical
imbalances. If we simply address the depression
and not the rootit will reoccur.
8 - 3. Discipline
- What are the characteristics of an undisciplined
child? - What are the characteristics of an undisciplined
believer? - What are the characteristics of an undisciplined
church?
9 - Vision
- Vision will always be tested
- Visions or promises are often not immediate
- Not based on emotion/ this will defeat faith
10 - Generational sin curses Ex. 346-7
- Need Gods revelation on this matter, however
often we are battling much more than our own
personal sin. - If the bondage is truly linked generationally,
often it is difficult for us to discern that it
is even sin or bondage becomes it is so
intertwined with our personality and identity.
We will often struggle to let these things go,
because they are familiar
11 - Generational sin curses (Contd.)
- Does it bear the fruit of the Spirit? Love, Joy,
Peace, Patience, Kindness, Gentleness, self
control - If not, then there is a branch that is clogged
and it needs ministry to draw from the tree of
Life - Are there words which are always used when
referring to your family?
12 - 6. Consecration and sacrifice
- Set apart, holy, no room for idolatry or impurity
See Luke 1818-27 for example of area not
consecrated - Set apart, turn to the Lord, and be prepared to
be used - What areas are not consecrated- job, ambition,
material wealth, image, emotions, intellect..etc. -
- Paul says that we are to offer up ourselves as
living sacrifices to the Lord
13 - 6. Consecration and sacrifice (Contd.)
- There is no consecration without repentance and
cleansing. This may be instant or it may be a
process of crucifixion of flesh - You must learn to feed the desires of your heart
with the things of the Spirit and of Godif we
only erase sin but do not drink from the source
of life we are not truly ready to serve
14 - Dont be tossed to and fro-
- In repentance and rest is your salvation, in
quietness and trust is your strength. Isaiah
3015 - Wait to hear God
- Dont strive in the flesh
