Healing Self Image
(self worth)

"I often feel insignificant."  Excellent. 
Our view, our perspective needs to be through God's eye glasses, not ours.  We ARE significant in His eyes. 
Our true significance is always based on His strength in us, not our strength in ourselves. 
We always need to rely on Him 1st & foremost & in that wisdom we begin to act. 
There are numerous stories of missionaries who begin daily in fear and trembling, but are then overtaken by God's anointing/power/strength/wisdom.  Likewise, we in awe/respect/trust need to do the same. 
As we take toddler spiritual steps we build spiritual muscle; daily it takes both time & persistence.
Our spiritual enemies/vultures/predators would have us quit, isolate ourselves & have a pity party - unprotected/alone where they can terrorize/control/victimize us. 
Do NOT be conned by those liars/bullies/jerks/losers/tricksters.
The Lord would have us see ourselves as He sees us. 
Actually, it is a sin for us not perceive ourselves as the Lord does. 
This sin may cause autoimmune diseases, those illnesses where our bodies attack ourselves. 
Antibodies attack us instead of the enemy. 
We will always walk with a limp in our spiritual life until the forgiving & loving thoughts of God toward us live in our heart instead of only in our mind.  When we believe anything contrary to what God believes, then we are believing a lie, most likely a lie/ deception of Satan. 
If our real identity does not agree/line up with what Christ/God says about us in scripture, then it must be discarded/buried with Christ & traded for His truth/thoughts.  1 major stumbling block is our feelings. 
Many of us believe/agree with our feelings.
Real truth is only what God/ Christ says in scripture.  Ask to borrow God's eye glasses.
2nd, many of our thoughts are NOT from us:  1/3 are from Satan.  1/3 are from God.  1/3 are from self.  Always filter each negative thought.  Put it under God's microscope.  If it does not agree with God's heart, then reject it.  Scripture says to capture each thought & to bring each thought into alignment with God, the same way we would take a car in for an alignment; our ride in life will be much smoother. 
2nd Corinthians 10:4-5 -
The weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds, casting down imaginations & every high thing that exalts itself the knowledge of God & bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ. 
3rd, our deeds are not us.  Our sins can be repented of, forgiven, and separated from us. 
Therefore what was done to us or what we did can be separated from us. 
What God forgives, he does not accuse us of.  The accuser is Satan and Satan is a liar. 
Like a sponge, Jesus absorbed all our sins when we confessed them.  When the accuser comes, tell him, "In the name of Jesus, go away."  In all likelihood, Satan missed his chance to repent & is jealous of you who did repent.  This messing around with you may be an attempt at revenge towards God. 
For Satan to waste his time with you, means that you are extremely valuable to God. 
When the enemy comes again, do not succumb; rather laugh.  Know that you are wise to the tactics of the enemy.

Have we asked Jesus Christ for forgiveness?  Lord, please forgive me.  Thank You, Lord.
Have we forgiven God?  Lord I forgive you.
Have we forgiven all those others who (when mentioned) cause us to bristle?  I forgive _____ now.
Have we forgiven ourselves?   Lord, I forgive myself, because You have already forgiven me.
Have we asked Jesus to be our Lord and King?  Lord, please now, today, be my Lord and King.
Have we asked Jesus to baptize us with His Holy Spirit? 
Jesus, I ask You to baptize me now with Your Holy Spirit.  Thank You. 
I believe, I receive, based on Your word in scripture & not based on what I feel or think.

Do we read our Bible?   I will obtain a Bible and read it a lot for the rest of my life.

Scripture admonishes us to be dead to self.  WHY?  It is the self that gets wounded.  It is the self where Satin is often able to get a toe or foothold into our lives.  We do not need to protect self.  That is God's job.  We need to be dead to self & alive to God.  Then we are dead to Satan & his tricks.  Satan basically tricks our 5 senses. 
That is 1 reason why fasting is such a great spiritual tool. So good in fact that even those in the occult use it - against us.  A dead man, that is dead to self (flesh or hurt feelings), cannot say ouch, according to God.

These are some Bible passages I will meditate on in order
to help Your word God go from my eyes & mind into my heart

When I was woven together in the depths of the earth,

!  How  vast is the sum of them!

In love He predestined us to be adopted as His sons through Jesus Christ, in accordance with His pleasure & will - to the praise of His glorious grace, which He has freely given us in the One He loves. 
In Him we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of sins,
in accordance with the riches of God's grace that He lavished on us with all wisdom and under-standing.  He made known to us the mystery of His will according to His good pleasure, which He purposed in Christ, to be put into effect when the times will have reached their fulfillment, to bring all things in heaven & on earth together under one head, even Christ. 
In Him we were also chosen, having been predestined
according to the plan of Him Who works out everything in conformity with the purpose of His will, in order that we, who were the first to hope in Christ, might be for the praise of His glory. You also were included in Christ when you heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvationHaving believed, you were marked in Him with a seal, the promised Holy Spirit, Who is a deposit guaranteeing our inheritance until the redemption of those who are God's possession, to the praise of His glory. 
EPHESIANS 1:8-23 NIV - I pray also that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened in order that you may know the hope to which He has called you, the riches of His glorious inheritance in the saints, & His incomparably great power for us who believe.  That power is like the working of His mighty strength which He exerted in Christ when He raised Him from the dead & seated Him at His right hand in the heavenly realms, far above all rule & authority, power, dominion, & every title that can be given, not only in the present age but also in the 1 to come.  God placed all things under His feet & appointed Him to be head over everything for the church, which is His body, the fullness of Him   Who fills everything in every way.

COLOSSIANS 2:15 TPNT - God disarmed the principalities and the authorities. 
He made them an example, exposing them publicly, when He triumphed over them through Him, Messiah.

HEBREWS 10:1-18 - The (Jewish) law is only a shadow of the good things that are coming - not the realities themselves.  For this reason it can never, by the same (animal) sacrifices repeated endlessly year after year, make perfect those who draw near to worship.  If it could, would they not have stopped being offered? 
Worshipers would have been cleansed once for all & would no longer have felt guilty for their sins
But those sacrifices are annual reminder of sins, because it is impossible for the blood of bulls and goats to take away sins.  Therefore, when Christ came into the world, He said, "Sacrifice & offering you did not desire, but a body You prepared for Me; with burnt & sin offerings You were not pleased. 
Then I said, 'Here I am.  It is written about Me in the scroll -I have come to do Your will, O God."  1st He said, "Sacrifices and offerings, burnt offerings and sin offerings You did not desire, nor were You pleased with them" (although the law required them to be made).  Then Hy that will, we have been made holy through the sacrifice of the body of Jesus Christ, once, for all.  Day after day every priest stands & performs his religious duties; again and again he offers the same (animal) sacrifices, which can never take away sins.  But when this priest (Jesus Christ) had offered for all time one sacrifice for sins, He sat down at the right hand of God.  Since that time He waits for His enemies (demons) to be made His footstool (crushed under His feet), because by 1 sacrifice He has made perfect forever those who are being made holy.  The Holy Spirit also testifies to us about this.  First He says, "This is the covenant I will make with them after that time," says the Lord.  "I will put My laws in their hearts.  I will write them on their minds."  The He adds, "Their sins & lawless acts I will remember no more." (So let us also not remember in such a way that allows shame and guilt to entrap us & drag us down into depression, suicide, & sin. Let us say no to such negative feelings and thoughts that are now today lies of satin, if we are forgiven.)  Where these have been forgiven, there is no longer any sacrifice for sin.
HEBREWS 10:22-23    Let us draw near to God with a sincere heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled to cleanse us from a guilty conscience and having our bodies washed with pure water. 
Let us hold unswervingly to the hope we profess, for He Who promised is faithful.
HEBREWS 10:32-33 - Remember those earlier days after you had received the light, when you stood your ground in a great contest in the face of suffering.  Sometimes you were publicly exposed to insult & persecution.    
HEBREWS 10:35,39 - So do not throw away your confidence.  We are not of those who shrink back and are destroyed, but of those who believe & are saved. (Let us meditate on what God, not on what satin, tells our minds.  Let us reject all lies.  We are not doomed.  It is satin who is doomed.)

JAMES 5:13-16

1st PETER 2:9 - You are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people belonging to God, that you may declare the praises of Him Who called you out of darkness into His wonderful light. 
Once you were not a people, but now you are the people of God. 
Once you had not received mercy, but now you have received mercy.

1st JOHN 1:9
1st JOHN 3:1-2 KJV -
1Behold, what manner of love the Father has bestowed on us, that we should be called children of God. 
2Beloved, NOW are we sons of God & it does not yet appear what we shall be.
But we know that, when He shall appear, we shall be like Him; for we shall see Him as He is.
1st JOHN 4:4
1st JOHN 5:4-5 NKJV
    4Whatever is born of God (has God's supernatural identity/DNA) overcomes the world. 
This is the (my) victory, that has overcome the world - our (my) faith (in our/my supernatural identity).
5Who is he (/she) who overcomes the world, but he (/she) who believes that Jesus is (our older brother,) the Son of God?  (Spiritual insights: As Jesus was/is, so are we in this world.  I have royalty in my blood. 
Lord, I believe my identity.  I do not need deliverance.  I am delivered.  I stand delivered today. www.christlove.org )

JUDE 24 - To Him who is able to keep you from falling & to present you before His glorious presence without fault & with great joy.

                                                                               Commentary

In the name of Jesus Christ, I bind, cast out & place under the feet of Jesus the spirits of self-hatred & the spirits of self condemnation of all past, present & future generations...
Sometimes doctors, psychiatrists & even family members believe that they are normal & we are not. 
Never mind.  It is what God thinks.  Father knows best is true. 
We need to focus on what God sees & not even on what we see, but what we believe. 
Take God at His word.  Children take time to grow up & so does the soul.  Give yourself & God time to finish the work that needs to be done in us by & with Him.  He is our role model & mentor.  He is our wheelchair, cane or crutch.  Never believe what you see in the mirror.  Believe what is in your heart & in God's heart. 
Memorize the scripture you need to keep you afloat.  Say it all day long, regardless of how you feel.  Never rely on feelings.  They can sabotage you.  If we are in God's family, then we are royalty, regardless if others never notice. 
Doesn't God have a great sense of humor... Thank You God, that You are so wise. 
Thank You God, that we are blood relatives.  Thank You that You are our dad. 
Thank You that You Love me.  Thank You for all Your promises in scripture.  Thank You for the hope we have in Your faithfulness, inch by inch, day by day.  Thank You for Your angels that protect us from danger. 
Thank You for being our friend, when we are lonesome, rejected & scared.  Thank You that I am OK. 
Thank You that I am getting better, daily, because of Your grace, mercy, love & power. 
In fact, thank You for being my doctor, the best one in the universe.

Joyce Meyer, after a fight with her husband, had a spell of self: criticism, condemnation, reproach & put down. 
As she continued this negative self talk, an ominous black cloud began to descend upon & envelop her. 
She recognized the cloud as being her enemy & immediately began to affirm, "I am the righteousness of God,"
over & over again, as the cloud began to retreat & then disappear. 
This testimony can be found on audio cassette #A236 Broken & Made Whole   www.joycemeyer.org 
We need to learn that a lot of our negative feelings, if internalized, are or invite negative spirits. 
We need to separate ourselves from them.  Our safety is in speaking the word of God, what He says about us, regardless of what we feel, even regardless of what we think. 
God, help us to disregard our negative feelings that get us into trouble. 
Our mind, emotions, memories are soul.  God is spirit.  Spiritually we are newborns at the moment the Holy Spirit unites with our spirit.  Only by the power of God in us can we realistically defeat negativity. 
We are impotent to overcome the enemy on our own. Why? 
God is a spirit.  Satin is a spirit.  It is a spiritual battle, 1st & foremost, played on the chessboard of life.
Joyce Meyer
in her The War for Man's Soul video & editorial in 10/2004 Enjoying Everyday Life magazine reminds us of the following:  Our soul is mind, will & emotions. At the moment our spirit is renewed by God placing His Spirit inside us (the 2 shall become 1), is the moment that our soul becomes alive to Him, but also the moment we BEGIN to grow in Him.  We have spiritual daily growing pains, daily battles between choosing between God's & Satan's will, daily "votes" for or against God or our enemy. 
When we constantly focus on our sins, failures, mistakes, shortcomings, then we neglect to focus on Jesus. 
Instead we are fellowshipping with the enemy and rejecting God's forgiveness. God asked Joyce, "Are you going to keep fellowshipping with your failures and weaknesses or are you going to fellowship with Me?" 
Focusing on our failures and weaknesses make them worse.  Where our attention goes, goes the power. 
This is war.  The One Who wins it is not us, but God.  Let us allow Him to finish the work He has begun in us by concentrating on what He says about us in scripture & not what the enemy says about us in our thoughts. 
Let us read aloud & memorize Romans 6, 7 & 8.

James E Collins, pastor of Eagle Heights, Revere, Massachusetts shares the story of Bill Wilson, a New York Bus Pastor.  (3/6/2005 radio AM 590) Bill's dad took off, never to return.  Then his mom left him on a street corner & never returned.  However, what Satan intended for evil, God used as a blessing.  A man found & parented him. 
He learned to repair buses & is now rescuing children in the ghetto.  NEVER allow another to define who you are.  NEVER allow a disease to define who you are. 
Instead meditate on the Word of God.  Soak in the fatherly love of God.  BELIEVE that you are special to Him. 
The more we experience the Love of God, the more we can trust.  If we are 2/3 full of God then we can function at 2/3 capacity.  Our spiritual engines need to be refueled daily.  No car or person can run on empty.

From the book From Judaism to Christianity let us affirm this visualization with Morris Cerullo,
"Even now, I visualize 'God's Presence' flowing like a mighty stream into my being. 
In the 'Stream of God's Presence' is Divine sufficiency for every need. 
This very moment God's Presence is overflowing my whole being, bringing Divine Health and giving me strength to be 'complete in Him.'  I see myself as God sees me; I am a whole person."  Thank you God.

Satan has a bag of tricks.  Satan used the "bait and switch" tactic on Eve, the first woman in the universe.
However, what we need to look at now is the "I" word = me, myself & I.
When we think or have negative self talk, it is usually like this, "I am no good.  I am shit. 
I wish I had never been born, because it is too painful to live, etc."
If we have told God we are sorry for our sins (regardless of how we now feel about them).
Fact and feelings are not necessarily the same.  Feelings can be lies of our enemy. 
Satan is the one who goes about condemning us around the clock. 
God on the other hand is forgiving & comforting.
If we have asked the invisible Jesus Christ to live in our hearts & be our savior.
If we have asked Jesus to baptize us with His Holy Spirit.
Then the Trinity (God, Son, Holy Spirit) has said YES, YES, YES. 
The Trinity does not allow for a divorce. 
Spiritual laws & government laws are not always the same.
We are His for better or worse.  And He is ours - for ever...
How do I walk out my wellness on a daily basis?
The evil spirit, the devil, sneaks in the back door & contradicts whatever scripture says. 
Not only that, he does it by deceit, giving us thoughts which are his and tricking us into thinking they are ours. 
When we hear in our head thoughts that disagree with scripture, we must respond immediately with scripture. 
For example. When Satin says in our mind, "I am not saved.  I am not good enough.  I am not worthy." 
We are to immediately think/answer back the words of God's scripture:
"None of his sins that he committed shall be mentioned to him." Ezekiel 33:16
"He will  subdue our iniquities.  Thou will cast all their sins into the depths of the sea." Mica 7:19
"Himself took our infirmities, and bare our sicknesses." Matthew 8:17
"There is no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus."  Romans 8:1
"If the Son therefore shall make you free, you shall be free indeed." John 8:36 
"Their sins & iniquities will I remember no more." Hebrews 10:17
"The weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds, casting down imaginations & every high thing that exalts itself the knowledge of God & bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ.  2nd Corinthians 10:4-5  "Thou will keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on Thee, because he trusts Thee."  Isaiah 26:3
"My thought are not your thoughts."  Isaiah 55:8
"There has no temptation given you but such as is common to man.  God is faithful, Who will not suffer you to be tempted above that you are able.  With the temptation He will make a way to escape."   1st Corinthians 10:13...
Listen to Holy Scripture continually on the radio, TV, audio cassettes, CD's.  Sing hymns continually.
Memorize any scripture that is relevant to you personally.  Go to church & Christian or Jewish groups at least once a week.  Find a prayer partner who you can call any day any hour.  Read scripture daily, even if it is 1 paragraph.
Why?  We cannot defend our self against the enemy of our soul if we do not know the word of God. 
The devil is a liar and we will fail to recognize his lies if we do not first know the word of God.
Second, Satin often uses the human flesh, our feelings to trick us.  What we perceive as us is really the enemy. 
He is the author of disease & negative emotions.  If  we feel sick, fearful, or inferior, beware. 
It may not be the medication.  It may not be ourselves.  It may be the enemy.  With all our might, we need to yell out loud or silently in our head, whatever God gives to us to contract Satan's lies & deceptions. 
Satan will take out anyone who will not defend himself.  Get your pastor to pray for you daily. 
Go to mass daily, even if you are Jewish. 
The blood & bread of Christ in communion terrorizes the real enemy, Satan. 
Doctors and relatives are not our real enemies.  It is the invisible enemy, Satan. 
However, let us NOT be afraid, for the Holy Spirit in us is greater than Satan. 
Let us stand up and defend ourselves, like David and Goliath & win.  Satan is all bluff and fakery. 
Let us not be tricked...

Benny Hinn's Fresh Manna CDs www.bennyhinn.org  teach that when we acknowledge Jesus as our savior & lord, He implants, like a tooth, His spirit into us.  That spirit is newborn.  It is a person.  It is alive.  It needs to be fed spiritually.  It needs to grow.  That spirit is housed in a body, our body.  Our body is not a person. 
Our body is a house.  The 3rd thing Hinn teaches is that the soul is the connection between the body & mind. 
The soul houses the mind & intellect. 
However, spiritual insight & spiritual comprehension is NOT in the soul, but in the spirit. 
It is the spirit that will go to heaven.  The soul follows whichever is stronger, the spirit or the body. 
As the spirit grows up it can surpass the body in maturity.  Then the soul can follow the leadings of the spirit more easily. Thus, there is hope for all of us.  It is the spirit that goes to heaven.  The body is left behind. 
It is the spirit that matters to God.  God looks at the heart, the motives, the attitudes, all invisible to mankind.  So every day let us feed our spirit, the real us, according to God...

Have we been told that we are the sum total of our experiences, our genes, and perhaps our perceptions? 
That may be true for the human being who has not been regenerated by the Holy Spirit.  
When we asked Jesus to be our personal savior and when we asked Jesus to baptize us with His Spirit, we became an empowered member of God's spiritual family.  We have a dual citizenship.  One on earth & one on heaven.  Some countries allow dual citizenship. 
God allows this, too.  We now have a heavenly passport with our picture, name & heavenly address on it. 
When we pass on from life to death, our spirit is not dead, but just passes on to heaven, with Holy Spirit in us as our heavenly passport.  Holy Spirit is our ticket to heaven, paid for with the blood of Jesus Christ...
Why repeat all this that you already know? 
Because, now that we are a member of God's family and a brother/sister to Jesus, we need to talk in the language of our new citizenship.  Other than tongues, we need to learn to speak 24 hours a day the Word of God (the language, thoughts and heart of God). 
That means we need to saturate our brain cells with the thoughts of God, so we can think like He thinks & say what He says.  We slowly change from a caterpillar into a butterfly, as we are obedient to think & say what scripture says & to disregard what we the human feel & think that contradicts scripture. 
At 1st it is impossible, of course; but the newborn spirit in us, that now belongs to God, will grow inch by inch & day by day as we feed it the word of God.  We must refuse to accept thoughts that contradict God. 
We must reject lies that contradict God's word.  We must refuse to accept everything we see that contradicts God. 
If my mind & my feelings tell me to desire death in order to avoid emotional pain, then immediately I need to reject that idea & that feeling, IN THE NAME OF JESUS, because it contradicts God's thoughts & feelings toward me.
I now have a new reality, a new citizenship.  The longer I learn, speak & think the language of God, the more safe, comfortable, loved & free I will be.  This is NOT a mind game or trick.  God SPOKE the earth into existence. 
What we see is of our earthly citizenship.  What God speaks pertains mainly to our spiritual citizenship, but also to our human existence.  Be encouraged to speak His words.  Speak His heavenly wellness into our earthly brains. 
Let our ears hear God's words.  Let the enemy of our soul hear God's words. 
Let our brain cells hear God's words and be renewed. 
If the enemy comes & says that we are talking like a fool, tell him, "IN THE NAME OF JESUS, I place you under the feet of Jesus."
Romans 8:1 says: There is now NO condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the (Holy) Spirit.
Matthew 8:16 says: He cast out the (evil) spirits with a WORD and healed ALL. 
No psychiatrist, no medicine, just God talk. 
Jesus said that he only spoke what He heard his father speak.  Let us only speak what we read in scripture. 
It is a win, win situation, if we do not faint or quit under the attacks of well intentioned others or of the not well intentioned devil, who says that since he missed out on God's blessings, he does not want us to get them either (& will do everything in his power to snare us).
Matthew 9:4 - Jesus said, "Why do you entertain evil thoughts in your hearts?"  Evil thoughts are any thoughts which disagree with scripture.  Human, from the enemy, from the past, any & all thoughts not of God will harm me. 
See the great urgent need to know scripture, to believe scripture & to speak scripture. 
It will take a life time to think & speak the language of heaven, but the Holy Spirit was sent to be our helper. 
If a thought or feeling comes along and latches onto us, immediately say, "Oh, I recognize you. 
Be gone, IN THE NAME OF JESUS."

Merlin Carothers in his 8/04 Praise News newsletter www.merlincarothers.com says that in addition to physical exercise, we need to exercise controlling what we think. Instead of being in a daze or mental fog, we can say thank you God and praise Him, even if it is for our feet being able to walk.  Merlin encourages us to use our idle time for Him, not in serving Him necessarily, but in our attitudes and thoughts.  Concentrating on aches & problems, sink our soul and increase the pain volume.  Singing raises our joy and wellness.  There are many case studies that prove this medically, because happiness triggers natural chemicals in our bodies boosting our immunity & well-being.  Mary Carothers goes on to say that when thoughts of condemnation come, it is imperative to shoo them away with scripture that contradicts such lies of the devil.  We can always say, "Lying spirit, go away in the name of Jesus."  If we need help we can call on God to send His warring angels to defend us. 
n addition, let us never be afraid to call a close friend, relative or pastor for prayer. 
Jesus says, "Where 2-3 are gathered together, in My name, there am I."

Reinhardt Bonnke says that God habitually elects the rejects, & chooses those put aside by man.

William Marrion Branham's 1st chapter in The Revelation of the 7 Seals comforts us who are less educated, polished, renown, known, self-sufficient.  It shares that God prefers the nobodies to astonish the somebodies.  God prefers secrecy & simplicity to astound the famous & instruct the child.  That way no one can claim the credit which is due only to God.  Those who are the scum of the earth have the best chance with God. 
Moses, due to poor self-image was given his brother as a help mate.  In scripture, many of those used by God needed constant reassurance, due to negative self-worth.  Never, never base your worth on what others, educators, bosses, parents, doctors proclaim is THE truth.  Instead, only base your worth on what God says in scripture.  If in any way, we fall short, then confess.  Then we are covered with the blood of Jesus. 
God cannot see that sin ever again; so we must not remind ourselves or God of something that is already forgiven.  If an enemy reminds us of past sin, then reject that accusation, every single time.  www.branham.org

Another insight.  Suppose we have been assigned to teach a Sunday/Saturday school class or to preach from the pulpit.  We discover after the sermon is delivered that there is a lot of praise, but to our surprise the praise falls short.  Our neediness is too great.  The words have blessed the congregation.  The Lord has blessed His sheep.  The Lord has received His due praise.  What has gone wrong?  Our need to be accepted for who we are is too great.  Our work is excellent, so it seems.  We, however fall short. 
The real problem is how we view ourselves.  We do not perceive ourselves from God's vantage.  We need to borrow God's eye glasses.  If in fact, we are God's children, then we are fully accepted in Christ Jesus.

1st Kings 17:1-6 NKJV 
1Elijah the Tishbite, of the inhabitants of Gilead, said to Ahab,
"As the Lord God of Israel lives, before whom I stand,"
2Then the Word of the Lord came to him (Elijah), saying,
3"Get away from here, turn eastward & hide by the Brook Cherith, which flows into the Jordan. 
4It will be that you (Elijah) shall drink from the brook.  I have commanded the ravens to feed you (Elijah) there."  5So he (Elijah) went & did according to the Word of the Lord, for he (Elijah) went & stayed by the Brook Chreith, which flows into the Jordan. 
6The ravens brought him  (Elijah) bread & meat in the morning & bread and meat in the evening. 
He (Elijah) drank from the brook.
(PS - Notice in your  grocery store a bread called Elijah bread.)  
Notice, it is God - not the ravens - who get the credit for ministering to Elijah... 
If there are character defects remaining in us, Oh Lord, please deal with them quickly, but gently. 
Let us be soft like unfired clay, so we can be molded aright, & then ready to withstand the fire of Your Holy Spirit, so that we will not faint or wilt under the school of hard knocks, the tricks of the enemy, or Your holy discipline. 
In Jesus Name we  pray...
In the Garden of Eden there was NO SELF-CONSCIOUSNESS, at least NO sense of embarrassment/shame/neediness/ inadequacy until Satan tricked man into sinning/self sufficiency/disobedience/separation from God. 

Arthur Burt
in Wales www.arthurburt.com is one of the best to highlight the need to DIE to SELF & allow Christ to replace that subsequent vacancy in oneself.  Sin allowed something to create a self or at least to damage it &/or create an unholy monster with the sin-nature similar to that of Satan. 
Numerous churches have infant baptism to eradicate this inherited "original sin" nature. 
Most all churches have an adult baptism to wash away this inherited sin (original/actual/nature).
It is the self which gets/allows hurt to the psyche & which one attempts to defend/protect & with which 1 reacts/strikes out in retaliation to punish/hurt others.
It is the part of us that needs/wants a doctor/shrink/psychiatrist and/or psychiatric meds. 
It is the part of us that needs a hug/kiss/comforter.  It is the part of us that may allow addiction to alcohol/drugs/ porn/promiscuity in the search for comfort &/or control of self/others.
When self is dead it cannot be hurt.  We need to allow Jesus Christ to heal all wounds.  We need to respond only to God & never to circumstances.  This is nothing to do with allowing others to walk all over us. 
It does have to do with deep intimacy with Christ & having deep fellowship with His Holy Spirit. 
Saint Paul mentions a lot his dying to self & living to Christ.
Father God, in the name of Your Son Jesus Christ, I am looking for a quick fix, but I also recognize that I need time to grow spiritually, intellectually & emotionally.  Come quickly.  Remove my fear, hurts & despair. 
Give me hope, peace, Your wisdom, holy friends, and human help.  Help me to trust those whom You send to me.  I choose to die to self and to live for You according to the daily insight & power You daily provide, 1 day at a time. 
I repent for every single sin of what I have done, namely ______________. 
I repent for every single sin of what I have failed to do, namely ________________. 
I place them under Your blood. 
I repent for every sin in my family committed against You, namely ________________ . 
I forgive all sins committed against me personally, namely _____________ .
I forgive all sins committed against my family including my ancestors, namely _____________ .  
I separate these sins from us & cover us with Your blood. 
I renounce and reject Satan & all his works. 
I ask You, Jesus to come into my heart & live there permanently, right now, today _________.
I ask You, Jesus to baptize me & fill me up with Your Holy Spirit, right now, today _________. 
I come to you NOT on my merits but on the merits of Your body wounded & blood shed for us on Your cross at Calvary 2000 years ago.  It was not only that generation's sins but also my sins that caused Your suffering & death. Thank You for having the power to rise from that death & for having the same resurrection power now indwell me through Your Holy Spirit to heal my mind, body & spirit, to heal others through my cooperation with You, to have Your strength to resist/reject  temptation + to take my spirit to live with You in heaven when my body dies. Amen.

The Holy Spirit reminded Tommy of 2 scriptures (Romans 8:1 and John 8:3-11) to reinforce the point that Jesus looks at us through the eye glasses of non condemnation.  It is Satan who is the accuser. 
The Holy Spirit does convict us of actual sins, so we will repent, but He does not condemn, or accuse us again for any sin for which we have already repented.

Chapter 1 Blessed Are the Poor in Spirit - Each of us need to be 100% "fully dependent on the One Who is always dependable."  The degree of relinquishment of self sufficiency, the degree for which we believe/trust Him + the degree for which we hunger for (& worship) Him - will affect the degree of our "fulfillment of His plans for you (us) that were laid before the foundation of the world."

Mother Teresa writes on behalf of Jesus, "Look at My heart that was pierced (& emotionally broken/wounded/hurt) for you.  Have you not understood My cross?  Then listen again to the words I spoke there, for they tell you clearly why I endured all this for you. 'I thirst.' (John 19:28).  Yes, I thirst for you, as the rest of the Psalm verse, which I was praying says of Me, 'I looked for love & found none.' (Psalm 69:20)."

Maybe, yes, maybe, but the truth is it is a deeper underlying thing attacking their future.
If they can change the way they see their past, they can change the way they see their future...
I heard the Holy Spirit say, 'I do not love My children equally...

Same would mean one of you were replaceable. Equal would mean my love could be measured
...
My love is immeasurable. I don't love my children equally, I love them uniquely
'...
I looked up the 3-fold definition of unique.  #1 is: Sole representative of.
There is no other Betty. There is no other James. You are the sole representative of that.  #2 is: Prototype. But #3 was my favorite. It is: Without rival.  There is no rival for the love of God.
There is no competition for his attention or his affection or his power or his entrustment or his gifting. If the church stops seeing one another as rivals & begin to see it as a body, then we will be united & God will be glorified. 
We're going to actually come until fullness of the stature of Jesus Christ instead of pieces & fragments."
James: "Understand...the enemy that attacks us so fiercely, continuously...
He's trying to destroy the purposes of God in your life, that you are uniquely designed to fulfill...
Understand how important you are & that the enemy is trying to stop what God wills for you & through you for His eternal purpose & kingdom purpose & to bless others.

Chapter 12  I can of mine own self do nothing, - "I (Jesus) am like you (Arthur Burt), a flat (car) battery.  I can of My own self do nothing.  It's the Father that's in Me; He doeth the works. (John 5:30)  But He only does those works, because I am connected to My Father.  I am totally helpless of Myself... I am a flat battery connected to a throbbing (Heavenly) Father by jumper cables...You (Arthur Burt by yourself) cannot do anything."
NOTICE.  "God has put more abundant honor on the uncomely member (of the human body and the body of Christ).  This is where God's glory is safe."
Chapter 22 The Secret of Samson Was the Spirit of God. - "Moses?  We know about him, because he was able to bear God acting through him, able to Gear God's power without taking the credit...Now the secret of Samson was the Spirit of God...Therefore, the Spirit of God can transform ordinary people...Now initially, the Spirit of God came on this ordinary an, Samson...an immoral man...The Spirit of God can use an immoral man...Did you think god blessed you because you were you...Moses said, 'Who am I?' & the great I AM said, 'Forget it. 
It's NOT who you am (pardon the grammar); it's who I AM.'"
Chapter 23 God does much with little, most with least and everything with nothing.
The revelation of Truth initially is God's doing.  "Then comes your responsibility where you have to buy (pay the price for) what you see...John the Baptist saw (perceived/understood/ recognized) it...a gradual decrease...the price you pay for God's increase...Fullness depends upon fullness of emptiness 1st...It's NO good talking in terms of Ananias' keeping back part of the price.
http://niv.scripturetext.com/acts/5-1.htm The more God takes from you, the bigger God becomes in your life.  If you're fill of yourself, you have NO room for God...This is the revelation of the Body (of Christ).  I have NO personality in the Body.  The only 1 in the Body is Jesus, the Head of the Body. 
I am simply a member; I am NOT a somebody. 
Therefore I'm delivered from the jealousy (wrath) of God, Who will NOT give the glory to another."

4 - "Sin is NOT the cause (root) of sin; PRIDE is."  (Pride covets and STEALS the glory which belongs to God.  Lucifer, who became Satan, reveals this spiritual truth.)  "Sin is...the consequence...For the consequence there is (the remedy of God's) grace, pardon = the blood of Jesus.  For (regarding) the cause (root of pride)"

"The worst in man is NOT his sin; the highest in man is NOT his righteousness...(but rather self-righteousness)...
Beneath man's sin is UNBELIEF.  No man ever sinned who was NOT 1st in unbelief...
1st he exalted himself in pride & thus chose his own glory, instead of God's, to be a god instead of having a God.  Self righteousness" (self-sufficiency/arrogance).
(The Holy Spirit indicates) "the mind of God...(He) is an umpire...a referee, a thermometer that operates inside me for the Glory of God...an independent witness that tells me when I am out & in" (the will of God).

Chapter 7 - The One-Man Show Is Over - There is a "difference between Pentecost and Tabernacles...
In Pentecost we've had measure...never had fullness...reserved for the final move of God...never had because Tabernacles is related to fullness."
"Man's glory is the enemy of the glory of God...If the one-man show has gone, then the One Man Show has arrived, but this One Man Show is Jesus.  The only identity now in what's coming is Jesus...All these other people who are redeemed through His Blood must now lose their identity in the One Man Show (as did John the Baptist defer to the Messiah when He showed up and revealed Himself to John)...I cease to be me...
My glory, my identity must die...Now I find out I'm only part of the whole...I've been very much THE show. 
Now comes my funeral, my lost identity...and I discover I'm part of the whole...
Now I discover I'm a whole part (of the body of Christ)."
"If you don't know what your part (function) is...look where your unction is. 
Your unction is like the sap of the vegetable world...like the electricity in the...light bulb."
Chapter 9 We Are Made In His Image - "I am NOT going to improve.  For many years I believed I had to improve. 
Now I see God does NOT want to improve me; He wants to remove me.  'It is NO longer I who live, but Christ Who lives in me.'
http://bible.cc/galatians/2-20.htm As I go out, Christ comes in...but there's a price. 
Only as I decrease, can He increase...In that day when He looks inside me & says, '
This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.' http://bible.cc/matthew/3-17.htm   He does NOT mean Arthur Burt.  He sees Jesus living in me & says,  'This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.' http://bible.cc/matthew/3-17.htm ...
'Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness.' http://bible.cc/genesis/1-26.htm ...Loss of identity is vital."

Chapter 6 God's Address has section The Sin of Inferiority.  It is a sin because it contradicts Truth. 
"Nothing is impossible to the person who believes."  A man testifies, "As I was sitting there listening to your words, I suddenly came out of my state of sickness (mental illness due to worry & inferiority complex)."

Chapter 5 Believers and the Holy Spirit -
"Only in pleasing the Father (as his first priority) does a person find his true identity." 
"The reason why born-again Christians still fall into Satan's delusion (of self sufficiency) is that they insist on continuing to live unto themselves instead of unto God (who is their sufficiency/empower/renewer of their minds).
"Every son and daughter have the qualification & capacity to be led by the Spirit of God." 
(Each of us is a piece of God's puzzle.  Instead of being ambitious and trying to get God to accommodate us, we need to realize that to be the most content/happy/satisfied/complete/unique is to be willing to fit into God's plan/blueprint/agenda.  The more God becomes something and the more we become nothing, the greater the significance we will have - to ourselves, to others & to Him.)

(3) that we who believe in Jesus have the legal right to use the name of Jesus to cast out demons, even the demons in our own flesh.

The deal is to drop dead.  That is to take our hands off & let God run our lives. 
Regarding the parable of the prodigal son, "'Son, you know everybody has died in this parable. 
I died (to self) at the beginning of this parable.  Now your brother has died (to self).
The calf has died (in being sacrificed to God). 
So why don't you drop dead (from arrogance & pride) and join the party?' 
For you see, the Kingdom of God is a party made up of dead (to self) people who have entered the rest (of allowing God to be #1)."

Hinn, Benny - Benny's London 2006 address to the convention audience is on "death" to self, allowing the cross and power of Jesus Christ to reign.  Step one is to accept Jesus as savior.  This lecture is not really discernable to the mind.  It rather needs to be an experiential revelation.  Hinn tried to explain that the name and claim crowd is a dead crowd, without power.  When the flesh/self is dead, then the Holy Spirit can begin to raise up/heal/deliver/help the individual, who in his own power is useless/powerless/impotent.

Hinson instructs us to tenaciously hang onto our new identity in God/Christ.

Hooks,  Dorothy E - Agenda for the Week of February 21st – 27th Abused ] Prayer of Release From Self-Bitterness -
To be set free from self-bitterness: [“Make a list of all the bitterness you have had or have against yourself. 
We need to confess & repent before Almighty God for holding onto this bitterness and believing it, instead of believing Him [God]. The stronghold that self-bitterness has held in your life will be destroyed, & Satan's power over you will be legally cancelled.  After you have written your list, pray the Prayer of Release (listed below) for each issue on your list; do NOT do a 'blanket' prayer,vPraying each issue separately will cause you to face & deal with each issue one at a time. If it is too overwhelming for you to do at one time, you can ask someone you trust to help you by letting them pray the prayer and you repeat it."] 

Prayer of Release (Self-Bitterness) – Say this prayer:
"Dear Heavenly Father, in the name of Jesus, & as an act of my free will,
I confess, repent, & renounce my (specific sin of self-hatred).
I ask You to forgive me for this sin.
I purpose and choose to forgive myself for this (specific sin of self-hatred) from my heart.
I release myself from any guilt or shame because of this self-bitterness.
In the name of Jesus, and by the power of His blood, I cancel Satan's authority over me because of the self-bitterness of (specific sin of self-hatred).
In the name of Jesus, I command this spirit of self-bitterness to go. 
Holy Spirit, I invite You into my heart to heal me of self-bitterness.
Please speak Your words of truth to me about this situation.”
(per BFOF book, pg 100).
[As Holy Spirit begins to speak to you, write down what He says.  So you can have it later when the enemy tries to come back. After you have prayed through your list about each situation, command the PRINCIPALITY of self-bitterness to go in the name of Jesus (per BFOF, pg 100).
In His Service,

Jones, David - Humble Is the Way - www.houseofpraiseinternational.org - Chapter 15 Our Supreme Example 
Psalm 8:5 KJV Thou hast made Him a little lower than the angels, & hast crowned Him with glory & honour.
Hebrews 2:2-9 KJV Thou (Father God) madest Him (Christ/Messiah) a little lower than the angels; thou crownedst Him with glory & honour & didst set Him over the works of Thy hands; Thou hast put all things in subjection under His feet.  For in that He put all in subjection under Him, He left nothing that is not put under Him. But now we see not yet (manifested) all things put under Him. But we see (have historical & spiritual evidence of) Jesus, Who was (temporarily) made a little lower than the angels for the (purpose of) the suffering of death, crowned with glory & honour, that He by the grace of God should taste death for every man.
Jesus had to be made "a little lower than the angels" (birthed as a human/take on the garment of flesh) to become vulnerable, humble, tested, obedient, & to fulfill God's secret purposes from the foundation of the earth. 
Jesus' restraint against self defense & retaliation during his abuse, torment & crucifixion was resolute/immutable. Had Jesus the man given in to His feelings & ignored His purpose for becoming human (Holy Spirit housed in flesh), He would have thwarted God's plan & left mankind bereft without any recourse of reconciliation with God or chance to have eternal life.  Adam failed.  Perhaps Jesus had the opportunity to fail, but He chose not to fail. 
Each of us have ongoing opportunities to fail or not.  Father, God in Jesus name, we apologize for each & every past failure as well as the failures of our ancestors.  We receive the forgiveness provided by Your son.  Thank You.  Now we ask for Your help & empowerment for today & tomorrow not to fail but rather to be a blessing both to You & to others.  Amen.

That does not mean that we children do not need to learn, to grow, to become. 
Every child needs to mature. It means Father God will  always love us & never divorce us.

Did you invite Jesus to live inside of you?  Did you ask Him to baptize you with His Holy Spirit? 
Were you water baptized as an adult, preferably by immersion, in the name of the Trinity, Father, Son, Holy Spirit?  Do you spend time daily with Him?)

Lovett, C. S. - Dealing With The Devil - recommended - "This book deals with the devil, not with demons...Satanolongy & demonology should be treated as SEPARATE SCIENCES...Satanology is concerned with RESISTING ATTACKS against one's own person.  Demonology is concerned with CASTING OUT beings already lodged in...Satanic attacks must be REPULSED, while demons have to be DISLODGED." Excerpts - http://www.messianicbiblestudy.com/dealing%20with%20the%20devil.htm
"Indeed. The Christian who fails to take up arms against Satan is already defeated. The lack of resistance invites satanic control. Satan has a perfect disguise that allows him to acquire almost total dominion of a Christian's life, yet the victim doesn't suspect the identity of his evil master. The satanically led Christian doesn't give 1 thought to Satan. Yet, all the while the god of unrighteousness is ordering the steps of his life. You wouldn't think such a thing could happen to a Christian, but when you learn the nature of his disguise, you might blush.
It could explain why your life in Christ isn't all you would like it to be. His disguise? Hang on for the surprise.
The mask is - SELF
... You're in a conversation. Some things coming from your lips are self-centered.
Count the 'I's'. 'I think, I always, If I were you, If you ask me, take me for example, etc.'
Watch yourself as others are speaking. How do you focus? Really listening, or thinking about yourself...
Memorize verses which have to do with your weakness areas; the Holy Spirit can bring them up as soon as Satan strikes (your thoughts/mind/imaginations/emotions). That gives you a 'fast gun.' It is a thrilling experience to see how quickly Satan flees when God's Word is fired at him. The pressure release comes at once.
That's a different use of God's Word. You can understand how any weapon is ineffective until used...
A shock treatment for Satan: Calling out Satan's name is but the first word of our resistance. After that comes your command to him, 'Go!' Our Lord Jesus set the pattern. The Scripture is clear, our Savior met the devil in His wilderness testing & dealt with him (personally). 'Satan, be gone (in Jesus' name)! For it is written, (Bible quote).'"
http://www.survivalprimer.com/CGL_Docs/Spiritual_Warfare_By_Chris_Simpson.htm
(Full Simpson editorial "may be freely distributed as is without alteration".)

Simpson credits Lovett, "I'm grateful to a number of writers, particularly C.S. Lovett in his book Dealing With the Devil for some of the principles shared in the following:"
"
Satan's finest disguise is the disguise of self. What a believer would never do in the name of the devil, he'll do all the time for himself. If you were...choosing between Christ & self, with Satan's deceptive power behind the self, the unsuspecting believer will choose self almost every time."
Until this revelation, "
there seemed to be an unspoken rule that if you ignored or discounted the workings of Satan, then he would have little effect on your life. It was as if we'd reinterpreted the Scripture in James 4:7 'Resist the devil and he will flee from you' to mean 'ignore the devil and he will flee from you'...
Your thought life is the battlefield...The enemy assigns specific spirit beings to every believer to keep his mind from operating & resting in the He things of God. Unless these beings are resisted, a believer's mind will be like a city without walls, easily invaded by anything that happens to be around. Solomon describes this in the Proverbs, 'He that has no rule over his own spirit is like a city that is broken down, & without walls.' (Proverbs 25:28)...
The spiritual war is won or lost in the battlefield of the mind. Until a person recognizes this and begins to take steps to clean up the thought life, all other spiritual activities are futile...Satan has access into the mind of the believer. Now we all know that God can see & examine the thoughts of our heart:.. But, do you realize that the enemy also has a pretty clear insight into what you're thinking? If you doubt that, consider this verse, 'When anyone hears the word of the kingdom, and understands it not, then comes the wicked one, and catches away that which was sown in his heart.' (Matthew 13:19a) This passage tells us that Satan has the ability to peer into your mind to see if you understand God's Word when it's sown in your heart. From this we see that the enemy does indeed have the capability to gaze into the depths of your thoughts.
We're also told that Satan can steal truth out of a man's heart when that truth is not fully understood.
If that isn't bad enough, Satan can also inject into your heart his own lies. Consider what Peter said to a believer: But Peter said, 'Ananias, why has Satan filled your heart to lie to the Holy Ghost.' (Acts 5:3a)
Apparently, the enemy has pretty formidable access into one's thought life. As uncomfortable as this may make you feel, it's important that you understand it if you're going to successfully thwart his attacks...
Satan is a spirit & communicates to your mind and spirit in a fashion similar to the Holy Spirit... Resist the devil. There are many believers who submit themselves to God but know very little about what it means to resist the devil. Most are quite helpless in this area because of their scant knowledge of the enemy & his ways. They've been taught that if they just remain faithful to God and serve others, they'll be safe. That's dangerous logic. Most believers are like a young girl who is devoted to her parents but ignorant of boys. Her submission to her parents won't protect her, though, from the young man who knows how to take advantage of her female ignorance. Ignorance of sex is dangerous in a parked car! Ignorance of Satan is dangerous in this evil world.
There's only 1 thing that will cause the enemy to flee: you must PERSONALLY resist him (in Jesus' name).
Your parents can't do it. Your pastor can't do it. Your spouse can't do it. Nor can anyone else. Even God won't intervene for you here. He's given you the authority in His Son to do it for yourself. Until you learn to stand up and fight the enemy of your soul, you'll forever be in bondage. But once you begin to resist the enemy in your life & in the situations you encounter each day, a whole new realm of spiritual power & victory will open up for you."

Lozano, Neal - Resisting the Devil - A Catholic Perspective on Deliverance - www.heartofthefather.com - Chapter 2 Do I Need an Exorcism? - The Loss of Identity - "The devil's work has always been to steal our identity as children of God and to take from us our life's purpose (for which we were designed by God at the foundation of the world)... By (our) taking on the identity of a (mentally ill) 'possessed' person...(we fail) to resist (refuse/reject) the devil...& (by default/failure to act/recognize/refute we) give up (relinquish) the authority...as son (or daughter) of God."
(Mental illness/insanity can be reversed, especially by placing oneself under the spiritual covering of a reputable ministry.  Self deliverance is possible, but sometimes more difficult. 
God's hand is never too short to reach down, just for you, just for me, just for we, right where we are, right now.)

1.Count your blessings. 
2.(Recognize your God made uniqueness, one of a kind, & then) Proclaim your rarity.  3.Go another mile. 
4.Use wisely your power of choice (not to quit). 
5.Do all things with love for self, others & Jesus/Holy Spirit/Father God.

Chapter 6 The DNA of the Body of Christ -
"Each one has been called in their uniqueness to do & be something that someone else cannot...
God...wants to talk to you...to give you His plan for your ministry.  Lay aside the books
you have read, the seminar...& get into a quiet place with God where He can speak His plan into your spirit. 
His Glory is experienced only where He is present.  Merely talking ABOUT Him does NOT substantiate His presence.  We must worship...hear & obey Him...He yearns (hungers) for intimacy with us. 
Worship is the highest form of intimacy with God...He is returning for a Bride who loves His appearing...
We must be able to sense the Spirit communicating to us at all times."

Chapter 14 Knowledge of the Glory - "There is a difference between a follower of the ark & a carrier...
Learn how to carry the ark for yourself...not...another person's ark...
If you do not have the ark yourself, you can't carry it. 
When you go into a place to minister, your spirit acts out of the atmosphere which is in that place...good or bad...
You can actually see, with your eyes of faith, into the realm from where the words are coming...life or death...
It is not about confession... What God is really saying...will come to pass.  Hebrews 4:2...
(Additionally) "each one of us needs to learn how to receive from the (spiritual) realm of Glory...
Until you learn how to open Heaven for yourself (for instance during - high worship, anointed preaching, Jewish holy festivals) you cannot carry the ark. There is a level of revelation, understanding and reverence (+ accountability) necessary for one to carry the ark of His presence (where you mind is renewed/aligned with the mind of God)."

I want to help you!  You have great worth.  You are too valuable to ever be a loser!  I'll be with you!  Nothing will be impossible for you & Me
."  A must read for all, especially those with poor self-image issues.  God created you to be His house in which His Holy Spirit wants to live for the rest of your life.  God created you to be His office out of which He can operate daily.  God created you to be His hospital out of which He can heal continually.
God created your arms with which He can hug others.
Chapter #1 The Terrific 'You' God Made 
"NEVER entertain demeaning thoughts abut yourself again.  NEVER SPEAK or act as a 2nd class person." 
Always expect God to help you become the awesome wonderful unique 1 of a kind individual He intended, when He conceived/designed/molded you in your mother's womb.  "When the information of the Bible becomes your basis for believing God's (wonderful) ideas about you; then you have the mind of Christ."

- "If you are going to walk in victory over Satan, you must be fully aware of your identification with Christ in every stage of His redemptive work... You are worth several things.  You are worth a terror in the world. Carry a consciousness of the authority that is in you.
Use it to promote the kingdom of God here on earth.  Be the 1 harassing the devil. Walk in power & authority...
The day you gave your life to Jesus, you received another life
. You had human life before, now you have eternal life, which is the God-order of life. So you now operate the God-order of life within the form of an ordinary structure.  Carry the understanding therefore, that the same way Moses confronted Pharaoh, is the same way you are to handle Satan, in anyway he presents himself... Friend, another life has been infused & injected into you.
It is eternal life - the very life of God. 2 Corinthians 4:7 in the Bible calls it 'this treasure in earthen vessels'.
If you approach spiritual battles as a human being, you are bound to fail, because the flesh profiteth nothing.  It is the spirit that quickeneth. By strength shall no man prevail.
Isaiah 59:19 says: 'When the enemy shall come in like a flood, the Spirit of the Lord shall lift up a standard against him'. Not a man's height, status or the strength of his natural muscles, but the Spirit of God on the inside of him. This is the only way man can successfully put the enemy, Satan, where he belongs. 
Psalms 82:6 says, 'I have said, Ye are gods.  All of you are children of the most High
.' 
All of you that are the children of the Most High God are gods. I mean all, not some, not a few.
But because you don't know this, you are prone to die like men & fall like one of the princes. 
You must know that by virtue of your new birth, you are no longer a mere being, but a peculiar being in human form. Everybody is free to be plagued by diseases, not you. Everybody is free to be frustrated in their various endeavors except you. The nobles of the earth may have no place to put their seats, not you. 
'I have said, Ye are gods.' 
You must understand in depth how this revelation is to affect your daily lifestyle. Besides, you must put it into practice.  Ye are gods. Know, understand, walk in the reality & work it outBe Conscious Of It -
The knowledge of the Holy God, and the consciousness of His nature flowing in your veins, is your staff of office on the earth. Without it, you lose control.  You have the infallible nature of God that determines His own course and destiny, in your heart. You need to awaken your spiritual consciousness, & call off religion.
We have been called to exhibit the transformed life on the earth. It's time to show the devil that Jesus is still alive in us.  For your Pharaohs to submit to you, you must walk in the consciousness of the truth that says, 'Ye are gods.' For diseases to obey you, for sicknesses to bow to you, for poverty to give way to you, you must carry this consciousness about - that you are indeed a god in the form of a man.  (Once you repent of your sins & invite Jesus to be your Messiah & baptizer in His Holy Spirit) go & discover your (spiritual) roots, & live well!  From now on, every mountain will obey you. You were once natural but now you are divine, because the life that makes for divinity now flows in you. Right now, whatever mountain you confront with this truth will obey you.  Get ready! Stop struggling. Start walking in the light of this revelation.
In no time at all, you will know that God who gives you dominion, backs it up with power

You can dominate your circumstances.  You can send sickness away from your house. 
You can send poverty away from your territory! You can have what you please, as long as it is covered by the covenant.  You shall no longer lose control, in Jesus name...
It is important you realize that the issue at hand is not the devil but you(r failure to recognize & act on your significance in Jesus Christ, Messiah). It is time to appreciate your spiritual inheritance, so that you can use an under-standing of these basic Bible truths to (begin to) reign on the earth." 
(This attitude is NOT to be confused with such ideology as New Age which does NOT acknowledge Jesus as Messiah & son of God; Jesus is NOT a way but the way.) 
(Our problems arise from our lack of knowing who we are in Christ, rather than from demons, & from our failure to confront & remove them in the name of Jesus.  The divine radiation/laser light living inside us should zap any demon in our presence)...Your distinction is in the Word of God. Your separation is in the Word of God.
The difference between you and every body else will be determined by the Word
This is why you just have to embrace God's Word, more than your necessary food and all other necessities of life.  So many are going around looking for prayers. Such people often come to me & say, 'Please agree with me.'
I tell them, 'No, you agree with God('s word spoken in scripture, not an interpretation of it, but an actual rendition.  If you have no Bible go & buy 1, if you are in a country where it can be purchased. 
The internet has many free translations).'"

Prince
, Derek - Rules of Engagement - www.derekprince.org - recommended author - Prince reminds us that it is imperative for us to focus more on the way that God sees us, and less on the way we see ourselves.
If God chose you from the foundation of the world to be His child, then there will be no heavenly wedding feast until you are there.  Prince defines the soul as ego, consisting of 3 ingredients - will, intellect + emotions. 
The brain (mind)  houses much of our soul/ego/thoughts.  The spirit is the God part of our personality. 
The body is the house where the soul and spirit reside, as earthly tenants.
Prince believes that achievements affect time, whereas character affects eternity.

Learn to Reign Section: Head into the Wind -
"I have deliberately set obstacles in thy path to test thy prowess. 
I shall not always cause favorable winds to blow upon thy barque, for then ye would be at ease & would soon grow soft & dull...Thus I can strengthen your spiritual fiber
(as one does a plant's roots). 
The storm is not a thing to fear, but rather to welcome.  Ye shall learn to head into the wind with sheer delight, as soon as ye have made the discovery that in the time of stress and strain, ye have the clearest revelations of Myself."
Learn to Reign Section: The Mind of God -
"Ye shall know who hath need of healing, & what the physical need, yes, even what is the true cause of illness, that healing may be complete in the whole man.  Ye shall know who is speaking error. 
Ye shall not only discern the craftiness of the enemy, but know how to rebuke him in My Name
."
Learn to Reign Section: Grow Up In Me -
"Commit to Me thy sanctification.  Bring thy thoughts into captivity and let they mind be under the control of the (Holy) spirit within you, neither refuse to allow Me the freedom to manifest Myself through you by means of the gifts. 
Ye may resist Me, because ye feel unworthy or 'unready' to be used.  This is a delusion of the mind
I do not use you, when you 'feel prepared', but when I need you & you are yielded. 
Even as I use you, ye will discover that in the process of being used, I shall do a work in you yourself, to the edification of your own heart & life
...
So then, ye block the way to your own spiritual development if ye hold Me back when I would minister through you.  (Ephesians 4:12,16) Indeed, if the time should ever come that ye 'feel ready', I would then be completely blocked by your pride, & would be forced to use someone else."
Learn to Reign S
ection Learn to Reign -
"Come into that place where ye share My authority & thus I will be able to manifest forth My glory through you.  This is My greatest joy, to lift man out of enemy territory, & seat him in the heavenlies with Me.  Where am I?  Even at the right hand of the Father...& ye are seated with Me, far above all principalities and powers.  Through Me ye have inherited all.  Ye can lay claim to that inheritance NOW because I have already died. 
Because I have already died, ye can enter in NOW. 
You do NOT gain an inheritance when you die (& go to heaven), but when (Christ Jesus, Messiah) the testator dies.  Take it, My people.  It is yours NOW.  It is yours because of Calvary...Think of My love...the tie-in between Calvary & this sharing of My throne life (right NOW on earth).  I want you with Me.  I want you seated beside Me, because I want you near Me, because I love you...
(We have been deputized to function on earth on His behalf, not impotently, but with audacity, in Jesus' name)
I have vested you with authority, also...Recognize your privilege to do so...Move out in the power of the Spirit into that realm where I would have you to live & move and yes...live in Me continually, & not  that ye be moving in & out of this place.  I would have you live continually in the center of the Kingdom of God, just as I have place the Kingdom within the very center of your being (when God's Holy Spirit impregnates your human spirit when you are born again; water and Holy Spirit baptism further empowers one's spirit man).  You bring this Kingdom into operation in you own life by an act of faith... There are works which I must yet do through My body, the Church, which I could not possibly have accomplished through My own physical body in My earthly ministry...
There are sufferings yet to be accomplished in the body of the Church that I was not able to suffer on the cross
...
Yea, and Praise Me when the most difficult thing to do is Praise.  This is the victory that over-cometh the world...Faith rejoicing for victories claimed in advance...the very fabric of things hoped for...the raw material in My hands...I am happiest there, &...ye shall make the enemy most unhappy...
This (praise) is the most powerful weapon ye can use against him
(Satan). 
So praise is like a 2-edged sword, 1 side bringing health to our own spirit & the other side cutting down the enemy
."
Listen to the Silence Section Renew Thy Vows - "No one else can do what I have reserved for you;
& be very sure that if ye fail, it shall remain undone

Listen to the Silence Section Take the Glory with Thee -
"In this, thy ministry together with Me to those in need, thou fillest up that which is left of the sufferings of Christ. (Colossians 1:24)  My physical sufferings, the broken body, the shed blood, My death, these were completed at the cross.  But the travail of soul until the completion & perfection of the Body of Christ (the church) this continueth until My coming in power & glory to receive unto Myself, My chosen Bride.  For I have chosen each member of the body as an individual, & the Church as a corporate body, so ye are twice chosen, individually & collectively."
Listen to the Silence Section My Kingdom Is at Hand -
"These are going to be glorious days for you, My chosen. This has been a mutual choosing.  If the would would choose Me NOW, I would usher in My Kingdom NOW, even as in the days of Jesus' (earthly ministry).  
Israel had then (in that generation) the opportunity to accept her Messiah.  Having rejected, judgment ensued. 
So, it is today
(in each generation/lifetime).  Mankind has had nearly 2,000 years to accept My grace & My forgiveness and (My) salvation. Having rejected, doom is inevitable...
See that thy witness not cease.  Only as ye have a full
(daily/continuous overflowing to others) supply of My Spirit can the (Holy Spirit) fire of testimony be kept alive. 
They who hold darkened lamps could scarcely be un-believers; for the lamp is My Word. 
My Word without My Spirit can produce no witness.  The fire is the witness, & the fire cometh never from the
Word alone, but always from the Word & the oil of the Spirit.  See that ye lose not the oil...
Be burning, for when I come I shall come for the living, not for the
(impotent/spiritually) dead."
Listen to the Silence Section I Wait for Thee -
"I come to thee via My holy Spirit from the depths within they being that thou hast never plumbed; from chambers within thy soul (mind/emotions/will/ conscience) which thine eyes have never seen: Rooms of darkness, not dark because of sin necessarily, as ye think of sin, but dark because they have been kept closed. 
Indeed, none
(no human/mind) but I (God through spiritual revelation) have the key to open."

Dr Rogers says in 3/14/05 (rebroadcast) audio that we are either saints or aint's. 
(That means that our self image is based on how God views us through His glasses or how Satan views us through his glasses.  It is imperative that we use God's eye glasses.  It is imperative that we accept God's Son sacrifice for our sins and allow Jesus to become our savior, so that we can be adopted into the family of God.  Then we have the legal entitlement to view things the way God does, through the lens of love and NOT of condemnation.)

Section 1 Women in Old China Chapter 1 No Rights at Home or in Society notes that "the masculine (yang) & feminine (yin) roles were at 1st evenly divided, but later in time  placed woman in a subservient position to the man.  A woman was not even considered a person. 
The story commonly told in china is of a housewife who heard someone knocking at the door. 
'Is anybody in?'  a man asked.  The woman quickly answered, 'No, nobody is here.' 
What a pity that she never considered herself a 'somebody'...Girls were taught to...serve their sons when widowed...Upon marriage, a woman had to give up her first name & replace it with her husband's last name...lost her individuality...The last word (or sir name), Shi, was required of every woman and denoted 'Possession of.'."

But in farming and poor families, girls did not have their feet bound...Having small or large feet distinguished women of different classes...which would cause them such suffering."

I would see everything that was going to happen the next day.  Some people (incorrectly) said that it was the beginning of a mental disorder.  At that time I could not find anyone that could explain to me what was happening."

Smit, Philip - http://www.ezfaith.com/etp_free_ebook/Godbelievesinyou.pdf - S Africa - donations appreciated -
Satan recognizes who Jesus is; he just does not want believers to recognize that they died, rose and sit WITH Christ in Heaven.  Satan wants Messianic believers to remain toothless.  Like internet thieves, Satan has stolen our inherited Godly identity and we are whispering, "Pretty pretty please, hand it back" & "Don't hurt me in the process, Mr. monster Devil."  Satan has become inflated and God has become deflated, along with ourselves. There are 2 kinds of zeal; 1 that exhausts; 1 that ignites with Holy Ghost fire.  The moment we reduce relationship to a recipe, we lose spontaneity & intimacy.  God's dream was to have a perfect/perfected bride/family/kingdom on earth as in heaven.  Each generation is coming closer to fulfilling His passion originating/birthed/planted in Eden. 
God's kingdom also includes His Holy Spirit indwelling in our hearts to the degree that we can "aggressively" in LOVE imitate the works of Christ here on earth, right now.  We need to defend God's opinions and reputation at the expense of losing ours or contradicting others, including doctors & scientists.  We can only do this if we trust God to back us us & trust in our heavenly citizenship, to the same degree that President Obama relies on his American birth certificate, regardless of controversy or contradiction.  We not only have an identity & purpose today, but also in our future generations and even in the future kingdom of God in heaven.  NOTHING qualifies us except Jesus.  Let us accept our identity in Him before we die without utilizing our free inheritance.  Every legal claim Satan throws at us will stick, unless we violently apply the Blood of Jesus to our situation & exterminate those lies/diseases/ problems. Jesus lived a life daily conscious of his true identity in God; likewise let us begin to tune into that spiritual reality, daily.  Let us daily meditate on daddy God's opinion/adoration of us, so that we respond to Him like a flower to the morning sunshine.  Having read the Bible through once, upon subsequent readings, let us replace our name where Jesus' name is written.  This will begin to help one internalize the significance of our role in our generation; Christ in me & I in Christ, beginning with His baptism in the Jordan river.  When forgiven, we are INNOCENT before God, clothed/covered in Jesus' robe of righteousness; guilt & condemnation are all dirty garments of Satan, which he attempts to lay illegally upon us.  BEWARE of his treachery.  (Author says Promised Land is NO longer a geographical address; spiritually true, but physically false.  Israel does have a prominent role to play prophetically, politically, AND spiritually, especially in the final 1,000 Biblical years.)

, Charles - Power in the Blood - publisher www.whitakerhouse.org - Chapter 1 Healing by the Stripes of Jesus - Spurgeon testified that before he became "born again", "When I was a youth, the burden of my (venial) sin was exceedingly heavy upon me.  I had not fallen into any great sins...However, I regarded myself as such (a transgressor)...My conscience was sensitive because it was enlightened...having a godly father & a praying mother, and having been trained in the ways of piety."  In other words, the Holy Spirit was working in his life (making his heart tender to the things of God) to lead him to Jesus Christ.  The Holy Spirit convicts us to repent of sin that offends God, whereas Satan condemns & draws us away from God & into sin.

Wearing theYoke  Self sufficiency is a lie of Satan.  God created us to be equally yoked to Him, where He carries/bears the heaviest portion at all times.  The sooner we learn this, the sooner we can refuse/reject self-condemnation.  Recognize that condemnation is always from our enemy Satan. "If you will not allow Me to be yoked with you in this life, you will advance little (especially in the area of joy/peace/contentment/satisfaction) & you will produce nothing eternal." (of heavenly value)  We are NOT to get our significance from others (mate/date/children/boss/pastor/work/business/accomplishments), but only from Him.  "To rebel is a statement of arrogance...Arrogance comes in the form of SELF-sufficiency, SELF-determination, and rebellion."

Walker, Dennis - Catching the Initiatives of Heaven - www.dunamisarc.org - Chapter 5 Hindrances to Spiritual Senses - section 9 Deadly Embraces - "The Lord spoke to me in dream...about 9 deadly embraces as a strategy of the devil to lead people into (emotional, physical and spiritual) bondage...In the dream I saw a man being freed...The Lord told me, 'He is reemerging from the 9 embraces'...The Lord had me write the (progressive) list:" 
"(1st) Embrace of an offense...[The (evil) spirit comes on the heels of...an offensive event.  The Bible says that offenses will come, but it is up to each one of us to either embrace the offense or release it immediately to God. 
If one embraces the (evil) spirit of offense, they have opened a door for other (evil spirit) embraces to follow. 
This is a strategy of the enemy to bring people into bondage (captivity/character defects).] 
(2nd) embracing a lying spirit of reinterpretation [exaggerates events & explains things (& motives) in a negative way]...
(3rd) embracing a spirit of accusation & judgment...
(4th) embracing a spirit of bitterness [You can tell you are in bitterness when you relive the same event (&/or emotions) over and over in your mind... Then begin to spread it to others...Now these tormentors (demons) have a (legal) right to lock you up and torment you...until such a time as you forgive.]...
[The 1st 4 points you choose to embrace. 
The following 5 points embrace you, whether you want the to or not.]
(5th) embraced by a spirit of deception...[You become confused about who god is,
who you are & about all truth...The spirit of deception...keeps you locked up...
(However) If (or when) you know the truth (Who is a person,Yeshua), you will come to freedom (get out of prison/spiritual captivity).]
(6th) embraced by a spirit of (unexplainable/uncontrollable) fear and depression...
[A person wants to hide...Fears come out of nowhere...A spirit...takes over as further torment.]
(7th) embraced by a spirit of compulsions, obsessions and addictions...
(8th)embraced by a spirit of control...[It can manifest through flattery...tears...shouting... subtle manipulation...passive...or...aggressive control.]
(9th) embraced by a suppressing (demonic) spirit [(who often overcomes/submerges/ overtakes/overrides) a person's identity... The words & actions are no longer theirs but are caused by a spirit.]
Now the Good News - "Someone who is stuck in any of those stages...is to take (go) back to the original offense & deal with that... Release...the offending people and events (& then) all the house of cards that the enemy has erected falls to the ground.  Allow Holy Spirit to show where (the initial) offense came in...
Release (give) it (&) all (judgment) to the Lord. (Forgive him/her/them & repent for unforgiveness, in order to receive your own) freedom (from captivity/problems)."
PRAYER: "Lord, I am not the judge; You are the only true & righteous judge...
I give (release to) You all these people...events & all these emotions."
After the prayer of forgiveness, in Jesus' name, "command all attached (evil) spirits to leave. 
Then pray (in Jesus' name) that the Father's love fill the void."
(NEVER take back what you have released to the Lord.)  "Continue to give up to the Lord all those (recurring/repeat) thoughts & emotions related to those past events.  The devil will try to get you to embrace offense again."  (RESIST in Jesus' name all old thoughts & emotions, & the devil must flee.
Replace negative thoughts with holy/good thoughts (especially scripture) &/or replace with deeds (such as telling others about Jesus).

Having a Mary Spirit with Joanna Weaver - Part 1 - 11/30/2015
Satan piggybacks on conviction regarding a highlighted problem & turns it into condemnation of others, self or both.  Satan wants us to become a convict, a prisoner, a captive. 
Joanna asked God to make her perfect by age 30, just as He did for Jesus.
She did not realize that sanctification requires team work with the Holy Spirit, that perfection is not SELF-improvement, and that problems can be character building bricks or God-opportunities.

Wigglesworth, Smith - Ever Increasing Faith - www.whitakerhouse.com
A hysterical man came to Wigglesworth crying out that he was lost, due to committing the unpardonable sin. 
The Holy Spirit moved Smith to cry out, "Come out you lying spirit."  Immediately the man was at peace.  Wigglesworth says that the devil attacks our mind with his THOUGHTS and FEELINGS of our not being saved or healed, in order to refute/ contest/reverse what God has done.  Wigglesworth says that satanic attack is a good sign that we are in fact saved/healed.  The danger is to allow the devil to make our minds a place of his stronghold.  Instead, we are to "bring into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ. 
2nd Corinthians 10:5
"  The devil is a liar, a trickster, a terrorist, & not a pet snake who never bites. 
1st Peter 5:8 says that the devil goes about like a roaring lion seeking whom he may devour.
Wigglesworth contends that everyone who is filled with the Holy Spirit becomes extraordinary & more able to recognize & defeat the wiles of Satan.
Wigglesworth reminds us to see how wonderful we are in God & how helpless we are in ourselves;
that if the Holy Spirit has a chance at us, He can make something of us.
Wigglesworth, Smith - Chapter 4 But Then Are There Any Big Men?
http://btckstorage.blob.core.windows.net/site2929/Arthur%20Burt%20Media/HowToBeOrdinary.pdf
"I lived for a season with an
ordinary man that everybody thinks was extra-ordinary.
His name: Smith Wigglesworth. Books have been written about this wonderful man.
But is this the truth? Are there any wonderful men? Or is there only One who is wonderful
& his name is Jesus. 
Wigglesworth was a working man, a plumber. He left school when he was 8 to go to work pulling turnips. 
When I met him at the railway station, I took his suitcases for him. My friend Jack brought the car. 
But Smith Wigglesworth took one look at the car and said, 'What’s the matter with that thing?
I’m not getting in that!'  Jack was a young man who had done the best he could and
we’d gone to the railway station to meet the great man, who was as ordinary as any other person, & so ordinary, he wouldn’t even get into God’s provision. Jack apologized, 'Well, I’m sorry for the exhaust smell & everything.'
So the big man said, 'Well I’m not getting into that thing.' 
So I suggested, 'Well look, we can get a bus, brother, if you prefer it.'
I began to explain, 'There are 2 buses, both have the same destination on the front, Huthwaite. We don’t want the 101, we need the 106.'  But at that moment, the 101 drove up and Wigglesworth said, 'Huthwaite.'  He stepped on the wrong bus.  Well what can you do when the man of God makes his mistake?  He gets on the wrong bus.
All I could do was get on & pay his fare.  When we got off the bus, we had as far to walk as if we’d never got on it.  That’s all right for
ordinary people, but you don’t really expect great men to do things like that.
Or are there any great men? Or do we all make our mistakes? Are we all ordinary?
Well, I slept in the same bedroom with Smith Wigglesworth. He made all the same sort of noises everybody else makes. My wife washed his clothes. Why? Because they were dirty. My friend did his finances.
I don’t know; could he spell?  Could he write?  Could he read?  Could he add?  He left school at 8.
He was a man of the Spirit, but he was certainly NOT what you’d term an educated man.
I believe in later life, his wife, Polly, taught him the rudiments of reading, maybe of writing too. I think of all the hustle & hassles the people make about this so-called 'great man,' yet he was as ordinary as any other man...
He was blessed of God, wonderfully blessed of God in his ordinary-ness.
For a number of years he conducted the Pentecostal Cheatham Street Easter Meetings. Impressive.
It was a regular thing.  Wigglesworth would convene the meetings. In 1 session he said, '
All those who believe God is here, put your hand up.'  They did.  'All those who believe
God is going to move mightily tonight, put 2 hands up.' They did, and God moved mightily. 
But then it became a formula. God isn’t a formula.
'Name it and claim it.  Confess it & possess it.' 
When God says it, it works.  When you turn God into a formula, nothing happens.
Well it became a kind of a formula.
I once saw a man come out for healing and Wigglesworth took his fist & hit him hard in the stomach. 
The man doubled up.  I thought, 'Oh God, if that man needed healing when he came out, he needs it now.'
But what do you do when the big man is in charge?  When the big man says, 'I’m not dealing with the sickness, I’m dealing with the devil.'  Now of course the big man said it so nobody dares to answer. 
Nobody dares to question.  But then, are there any big men?
Or is there a place where all men have feet of clay, where all men at some time trespass?
Is this not why we need the ministry of the Body? Is this not the failure of the one-man show that we live to the big man and dare not say anything because the big man is this
BIG MAN
We live to him, and we dare not question him.
And so his ordinariness is covered up.  Not many know that Wigglesworth, the healer (although he himself declared, 'God heals, not me!') was plagued with gallstones
Jimmy Salter, his son-in-law
, often had to help him to meetings near the end of his life when he’d go out with a condition of bleeding. He would go into a meeting & God would heal others whilst he himself was not healed.
His own daughter, Alice, when she came back from Africa, was deaf as the result of fever.
Alice would have a huge ear trumpet, no little thing like you put in your ear today, but a fearsome trumpet that came right out & it was an embarrassment to her father. I’ve heard him say, 'Alice.'  'Yes?'  'Have you got the cases? Have you got the cases?'  'Faces? Who’s faces?' she said. 'No.  Not faces—cases.' You could tell she was an embarrassment, that huge trumpet.  Maybe it was like Paul’s thorn in the flesh, to safeguard God’s glory.
Well, the glory of God demands NOT wonderful people, but the very opposite.
It demands that the people who are ordinary must recognize how ordinary they are, that they might abide in Truth, which is the glory of God."

Wommack, Andrew - http://www.awmi.net/extra/article/deal_temptation - "Know who you are. Matthew 4 and Luke 4 record the temptation of Jesus in the wilderness.  One of the most amazing aspects of those temptations was that Satan began 2 of 3 temptations with the words, “If thou be the Son of God.” Many people have missed this point. The real temptation was Satan’s attempt to get Jesus to doubt who He was. That’s the same way he attacked Adam and Eve. The serpent told Eve that if she would eat the forbidden fruit, she would be like God (Gen. 3:5). The truth was that she was already like God, but she didn’t know it. The first Adam sinned, because he didn’t know who he really was. The 2nd Adam, Jesus, didn’t sin, because He did know who he was.
Knowing your true identity in Christ is one of the greatest defenses
you can possibly have against temptation (and any intimidation in life, whether self talk or other)...
The real temptation was never about turning stones into bread.
It was Satan’s attempt to manipulate Jesus into doubting His Father’s Word & doing something to prove who He was.  Satan was trying to find and exploit any insecurity in Jesus.
When you were a kid, I’m sure someone at some time dared you to do something stupid.
The real issue wasn’t whether or not you could do it but whether you were 'afraid' to do it.
Sad to say, many of us took the dare & did something that hurt us or shamed us just to prove that we weren’t.
All we really succeeded in proving was that we feared their disapproval so much that we weren’t willing to do what was right.  The truly fearless response would have been to walk away, secure in who we were, earning their respect through character rather than performance...
The Word
(of God in scripture) is powerful.  Use it. Jesus countered every temptation of the devil with the Word. Think about it, Jesus was the Word, and everything He said would have been Scripture & more than sufficient to rebuke the devil. Yet He would say, 'It is written' then He quoted God’s Word. If it was important for Jesus to quote the Word, it’s even more important for us to do the same. We must know God’s Word to effectively overcome temptation. That goes back to being prepared; you can’t quote scripture you haven’t learned, & there isn’t any power in what you don’t know or understand...
Selfishness (self-centeredness/self-preoccupation) is the beachhead of Satan...Speaking the Word is so important...Temptation is tied to your thought life...Understand...&... overcome...temptation."

Wood, Gary - chapter 6 - Magnificence of Heaven from Sid Roth's Heaven Is Beyond Your Wildest Expectations - www.sidroth.org - Jesus told Gary, "All have a purpose for being here in this life...
"Tell people they are special and unique, each one. 
God made every one of His children to have a divine purpose, which only they can accomplish in the earth.""
"Don't ever believe the condemnation of the devil, that you are unworthy (if you have repented to Jesus). 
You ARE worthy.  You have been redeemed by the
blood of the lamb.  Why do My people NOT believe in Me? 
Why do MY people reject Me
(My word in scripture/My work on the cross for them)?"
(One's worthiness is based on what JESUS DID & never on what we do or do not do.)
"Why do they NOT walk in My commandments
(Have they not received the baptism of My Holy Spirit, after they received Me as savior?)

Chapter 9 Established in the Supernatural - When you repent of your sins & ask Jesus to be your savior & Lord.
He always says, "Yes," & then "your spiritual umbilical cord has been unplugged from the natural man, Adam & plugged into the supernatural, heavenly man, the Last Adam - Christ Jesus...
You are now a citizen of the Kingdom of heaven...your primary citizenship...
Any calling from God that you may have is impossible for you to do on your own."
(Your entire life is a dry run, a practice, a terrorist sleeper cell, to be launched to do His audacious work in His time.)

Baker, Heidi - Finding Your Power in God's Lavish Love by Heidi Baker  2/2014
No matter how great we are, we do not naturally deserve to be called sons and daughters of God.
Even if we achieved academic honors in school, the highest promotions in our jobs and
every other qualification this world could possibly offer, we would never merit such a gift.
Only His free & lavish love gives us the most beautiful title of all.  
NOT: doctor, lawyer, apostle, but son or daughter.  We are the family God went out & found.
He was so determined to call us sons & daughters that He suffered on a cross and died. 
Jesus & His Father are one. Whatever Jesus does, the Father does.
They act together.  The cross expresses the unity of their love for us.
Jesus died so we could be brothers & sisters to one another.  Before that, we could not be one family. 
I have been beaten up, shot at & lied about. People have even tried to strangle me. I am not afraid.
To this day I can walk boldly into gangs of armed thugs & tell them to stop in the name of Jesus.
I expect them to drop their knives. Generally they turn surprisingly nice. Sometimes they look at me & apologize.
Where did this confidence come from? It came from knowing the Father loves me. Because I truly know that I am loved, I am not afraid.  God wants your ministry to flow from the realization that you are a beloved child of God. In that place you don't worry too much about how people see you. You don't worry too much about whether they are nice or mean. You don't even worry about whether they love you or hate you.
You don't worry because you're simply going to love them & Him. This comes from knowing who He is & what He thinks of you. This is what it means to grasp you are a child of God.  But what if we make messy mistakes?
What if it turns out we are still flawed people who can be difficult to get along with? Will He keep on loving us then?
We have taken in thousands of children to live with us over the years.  1 of them was a particular rascal.
If he could find something wrong to do, he would do it.  I asked God what to do about this one.
God told me to love him. I sensed the Lord saying He wanted me to give him some time & pray every day for him. So that is what I & the other caretakers did.
For a long time we could see no progress. Despite everything, this boy was always very charismatic. 
After a while he managed to move to the United Kingdom.
Recently, when I was speaking in the U.K., I saw this spiritual son again.
At once I was startled to see how powerfully the presence of God was resting on him. When he came up to me, he started shaking & weeping in my arms. In broken English he said, "Thank you, Mama. For not stop loving me."
Our joy in this son was not so much in seeing him graduate from school, though we were very happy when he did. Our joy was seeing him filled with the presence of God.
Our joy was seeing him come home to the Father's house and step into the spirit of adoption.
That boy - now a man - knows who he is. He is a son. He knows better than most that God loves him no matter how many times he might have lied, stolen, beaten up innocents or committed adultery.
He is loved because of the incredible grace of God that comes down to call each of us sons & daughters.
None of us deserve it. We simply have it.
Your heavenly Father loves you the same way. He wants you, no matter what you do or how you fail.
This is the love He spoke over us when He sent His Son. It is what Jesus poured out of the cross.
It is the thing the church must demonstrate to the world. Love so lavish can never die.
Because of this love, we have become children of God.
Even if we do not yet believe it, this is what we truly are (1 John 3:1).
We have had children who, for the longest time, would not believe they are truly loved.
This particular son had been with us for 14 years before he actually got it. That is a lot of waiting and a lot of pain.
If the Holy Spirit ever touches people in such a way that they realize they are sons or daughters instantly, we ought to celebrate it as a mighty miracle - because sometimes it takes 14 years.
You are a son or a daughter right now - today. Your real identity is in this truth.
It doesn't matter what people do or do not call you. It doesn't matter where you do or do not sit.
You are a son. You are a daughter. There is no more precious position to which you might ever aspire.
To be a son or daughter of God also means you are royalty (having a birth certificate as His adopted child, His spiritual DNA,  plus a passport as a citizen in His kingdom).

Can we "just ignore Satan's accusations & go on with our lives?  Not when we understand that the Greek word accuse means 'to ensnare or to fasten a noose.'  Satan couldn't lay a finger on Jesus unless He said something that gave the devil access into His life.  Satan knew he needed words that sere contrary to truth with which to hang Jesus (as he had hung Judas).  Remember, Proverbs 18:21 says that death and life are in the power of the tongue.  Furthermore, Proverbs 6:2 (Basic English version) says, 'You are taken as in a net by the words of your mouth; the sayings of your lips have overcome you.'  That's why every response out of Jesus' mouth agreed with God's Word... Jesus never got upset or gave His opinion.  Instead, He pointed them (the accusers) to God's Word rather than engaging in their debate." http://dennisburkeministries.org/

You are chosen...one of a kind. Don't insult God by trying to be somebody else. If He wanted them He would have made another 1 of them. He made you. He called you. You have a job. You have a place to fill.
The Body (of Christ) will not be complete until you begin to be what He called you to be. Be you and believe.
Your fingerprints are different from anyone else's...billions and billions of fingers but none like yours.
God has His stamp on you. Your voice, your eyes, you are unique & special to God.
The hairs of your head are
numbered
, not counted, NUMBERED."
"
Make sure what you believe & what you think is truth. Be certain you have not entertained a lie.
Demonic power is granted by the believer when we choose to believe what is not in agreement with God’s Word.
On any level, believing a lie empowers demons. 
What you believe...what you think determine what you are (& do).  As a man thinks in his heart...so is he...

1 of the greatest truths I have discovered is to agree with what God’s Word says. Whata ya think?"

"Those who find their life will lose it, and those who lose their life for my sake will find it. Matthew 10:39 NRSV
For example, if you feel bad or wanted to indulge at dinnertime you would go to a doctor to feel better or eat more food.  But if the Holy Spirit had more influence over your life you may be surprised to hear Him say, 'Trust Me for your healing & food cravings.' 
The next level in Christ requires each of us to recognize the life we describe as 'normal' is abnormal in the eyes of the Spirit.  I am not saying you must ignore pain or sacrifice all physical desires.  I am saying if the unseen realm is not influencing us more than the physical world very little will change in our life...

My Cross By Meri Ford - 2/2014 - "'My cross' is the cross of MY humiliation...the fact that I am totally helpless to do anything but meet my own needs.  That it is the very essence of my humanity apart from the working of the Spirit of God in me. Humiliation comes from the word 'human'.  My humanity & the power in it to meet my own needs not only is greater than my ability to change it, it is totally destructive to me & to every other human being I contact. It leads to death.   So when I take up 'my cross' it means owning my own humiliation, the total inability to change my nature" (apart from God).

Hotchkin, Robert - http://www.butterflyspeak.com/2011/04/awakening-article-on-your-identity.html
One of the most important weapons of warfare we have in any battle is our God-given identity.
When we allow God to reveal to us who we truly are.  We choose to believe Him, we can live from that identity & trust God to back it up & bring it about. When we know who we are to, with & for God, we can enter any situation or circumstance confident that we will see victory, because we are walking out the destiny God created us for, called us to, and has empowered us to step into. 
God-given identity is so powerful that the enemy will do all He can to come against it.
He tried to attack Jesus’ identity in the wilderness and get Him to question if He really was God’s Son.
But Jesus refused to be shaken. He refused to let go of the identity His Father had declared over Him.
He was so rooted & grounded in who He was to, for, and with the Father that at times He simply declared His true God-given identity & the enemy was completely over-powered by it (John 18:6).

[EVERY thing we do NOT let go (relinquish) becomes the battle ground for the devil, allowing him to touch what we love too much to become a "general" for God in that area where HE could have used us. 
We need to be meek. quick to obey & to become a deliverer, like Ester, at the risk of losing our family (like Job), to survive the consuming firery Glory.  Sometimes, failure to act & even silence can become a travesty, thwarting/aborting the reason for which we were created. 
Lord, please expose our disobediences that we may repent. 
Then guardian angel, please prod us, to henceforth, both hear clearly & obey promptly.]

How an Encounter with Jesus Changes Everything by Anne Graham Lotz

Renner, Rick - http://sidroth.org/asx/sn3-9-15.asx video + Download a free transcript of the interview
SID:
You know Rick...You realize that you're literally dressed to kill. You said the mind is so important.
Would you pray for people that their mind renewed to the Word of God right now. 
RICK:
I will, because the mind is where the main (enemy spiritual) attack takes place...
Father, in the name of Jesus, I pray, Lord, right now for people whose mind is under assault, the enemy is trying to pave a road into their mind and to bombard them with lies about their self-image...health...marriage...
Father, I pray that they would listen to the Word of God (spoken to their heart/mind/ears)...
Every one of those (demonic) lies (contradictions to Your holy nature)...
be uprooted and removed from their minds, in the name of Jesus. Amen. 
SID:
The devil comes at you like a roaring lion...But you have that (protective) shield of faith.
You have the (offensive) sword of the Spirit (the spoken words of God welded in your mouth).
You are dressed to kill. You are more than a conqueror (in the name & power of Jesus Christ).
(Thus we need to continually identify the source of all thoughts,  then filter out all ones that do NOT align with God’s nature, & reject ones that are/or trigger curses rather than blessings, subsequently replacing with positives, especially God’s spoken thoughts, the supernatural fuel in our human situations.)

Ogden, Keith - http://www.sermoncentral.com/sermons/what-do-demons-do-all-day-keith-ogden-sermon-on-character-58771.asp -
Demons "either invade your life with temporal substitutes, ways to act like God without letting God work through you, or they invade your life by tempting you to do evil, luring you to behavior & thoughts that break God’s heart. It is a relentless, continuous, constantly escalating battle. Remember, the fruit of the Spirit in you is God’s character translated into human behavior. Yea, Satan hates that.  Remember also, that every fruit of the Spirit exhibits 1 or more of the characteristics of God’s nature, & each is totally supernatural. 
None can be demonstrated in the flesh, & the unregenerate man or woman cannot exhibit these fruits.
They cannot even understand them when they see them, for they are spiritually discerned. (1 Corinthians 2:14)
Let’s look at Satan’s 1st attempt; he tries to make us think that there is NO difference between what God produces and what man produces, except perhaps for a little increase in quality.
My brothers & sister, what you must understand is that the sinister minister himself, tries to get us to redefine words, using experience as our base, and then, instead of learning to die (As the Apostle Paul would say, we must die daily) so Jesus can live through us, he makes us think we can produce in the flesh behavior that is close enough to the real thing that God will be satisfied."
demons seem to have a better understanding of who Jesus is than the people do.
In verse 24, the demons say, “I know who you are: the Holy One of God.”

Perry, Michelle - http://illustratedgrace.com/2015/11/10/why-we-need-to-celebrate-failure/ 11/10/2015
God "doesn’t look at us & see failures or screw -ups… because we are not defined by our success, or lack thereof. We are defined by His faith in who He has created us to be & become.

More Commentary

New names imparted (especially by God, but also by a new husband) indicates who we are in the eyes of those who behold us. A NEW or CHANGED NAME  has spiritual & often legal significance.  Both the Catholic & the Jewish community impart new names during specific sacramental ceremonies + most all religions & civil authorities add the husband's sir name to the wife's during the wedding ceremony.

More Commentary

Self worth or identity is also affected by ADOPTION, whether we are adopted or whether we adopt.  In fact we have heard of stories where there is an "adoption syndrome" seen in Russian infants adopted by Americans where the children do not allow the parents to parent/love/touch them, somewhat like what one would see with an autistic child.

More Scripture

Romans 8:14-19 KJV    Many as are led by the Spirit of God...are the sons of God. 
You have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear.  You have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father.  The Spirit Itself bears witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God. 
If children, then heirs.  Heirs of God.  Joint heirs with Christ...
We suffer with Him, that we may be also glorified together. 
I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us. 
The earnest expectation of the creature (our body, mind & spirit) waits for the manifestation of the sons of God (the Holy Spirit would finish what He has begun in our lives.)
Romans 8:23 KJV    Ourselves..have the first fruits of the (Holy) Spirit...
We ourselves groan inside ourselves, waiting for ADOPTION, that is, the redemption of our body.
Romans 9:4 KJV    Who are the Israelites to whom pertains the ADOPTION, the glory,
the covenants, the giving of the law, the service of God, and the promises?
Romans 9:8 KJV - The children of the flesh are NOT the children of God. 
The children of the promise are counted for the seed (sons/heirs/blood relative),
Romans 9:9 KJV - that the purpose of God according to election might stand, not of works, but of Him who calls. 
(Isaac was a son both of blood and promise, due to Abraham's faith in God.  The other son was of blood, but out of Sarah's attempts to fix her infertility, and resulted in the birth of the Arab nations, competition & hatred between Jew and Arab to this day.  The birth of Ishmael was God's permissive will & not His choice for the blood line through which Jesus would be born.  Abraham was both the spiritual father & the physical dad to the Jews. 
His claim to fame was NOT in the genetic lineage, but in the spiritual lineage. 
God's kingdom is a spiritual 1, not a Jewish 1. Our adoption is spiritual.  However,
being a Messianic Jew might be God's delight.  Remember, God always looks at the heart. Law always handicaps.)

Galations 4:4-6 KJV - When the fullness of time4 was come, God sent forth His Son, made of a woman, made under the law, to redeem them that were under the law, that we might receive the ADOPTION of sons (& daughters). 
Because you are sons, God has sent forth the Spirit of His Son into your hearts, crying, Abba, Father.

Ephesians 1:2-7 KJV - Grace be to you & peace from God our Father & from the Lord Jesus Christ. 
Blessed be God & Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, Who has blessed us with ALL spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ. 
He has chosen us in Him before the world's foundation, that we should be holy & without blame before Him in love. 
(He) predestined us to (have the opportunity of) ADOPTION by (receiving) Jesus Christ (as our Messiah), according to the good pleasure of His will, to the praise of the glory of His grace.  He has made us accepted in the beloved, in Whom we have redemption through His blood and the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of His grace. (Spiritual insight: When we say yes to Jesus as Messiah, then God says yes to us & becomes our dad.  God gives us a bit of His Holy Spirit as a confirmation of His adoption.  The heavenly relationship begins. 
As we mature spiritually, our self image will blossom.
There will be improvements in body, mind & spirit, as we know, love & trust God more & more

Thoughts on
One's Being Responsible for/Contributing to Another's Problems

Hereditary disease has the potential of attacking descendents. 
Additionally individuals often pass on sexually transmitted diseases to their partners/mates &/or offspring. 
In Genesis we see where Adam & Eve (as parents of not only their own children but of the entire human race) became guilty/responsible for/contributed to the harm of all their descendents by allowing sin/death/disease to enter their own flesh and blood...It is horrific enough to suffer for one's own sins, but worse still to affect/afflict one's children.  Additionally Eve had to suffer the resulting condemnation/accusation of enlisting Adam in her disobedience.  Perhaps God told them about Jesus; perhaps not.  Perhaps they did not receive forgiveness (& reunion with God in heaven) until Christ went to the dead & preached to them just before He rose from the grave.  Luckily we do not have to wait.  We can go to Christ right now, repent and receive forgiveness, peace of mind, plus legal permanent membership in God's spiritual family.  Separation from God will allow Satan to get a foot in the door of our lives.  Quick, drop to your knees & leap into the arms of God.  He is waiting for you...
Remember; as a Christian, it is not our reputation that is at stake; it's the Lord's reputation! 
We do NOT need to protect our human reputation.  Rather, our human container of self-importance needs to be displaced, Lord, with Your Oil/Water/Oil/Spirit/Heart/Will/Importance/Loveliness/Mind/Goals/Plans/Power.
One of our purposes in life is to reveal Christ to this generation.  Christ went about revealing His Father.
The disciples went about revealing the Holy Spirit. 
The kingdom of God is not a place, but a Person inside of us, the Ferrells remind us.  www.voiceofthelight.org

Ferrell, Ana Mendez + Emerson    Spiritual Authority     4 CD's    http://www.voiceofthelight.com    
DVD #3 is marvelous! It shares the testimony of Will, a nobody.  Nobody noticed him for 15 years. 
After being prayed for, he & his son were released from generational bondage & captivity in a demonic spiritual place called forgetfulness
Same testimony is found in Ana's book Regions of Captivity chapter 6 The Different Regions of Captivity
Will was trapped in a spiritual "place of infinite loneliness, sadness, abandonment & rejection...
where the devil imprisons people in order for them to live forgotten by others."
Will's ancestor had "made a covenant to lock his future generations in" a chest of "solitary confinement."
Ferrell, Ana Mendez - Trained to Reign - DVD - http://www.voiceofthelight.com - excellent
The entire book of Revelation (See chapter 1:1-2) trains Holy Spirit baptized born-again Christians to reign in their spiritual kingdoms.  God made us kings & priests.  We will miss our destiny, if we do not comprehend this. 
If I am not "reigning," I am missing my call, purposed before the foundation of the world.
God needs to reformat our brains/thinking.
Ferrell, Ana Mendez - Entering into His Fullness  DVD http://www.voiceofthelight.com  excellent
Determined by the steps we are willing to take and by the degree we are willing to sacrifice, we grow into spiritual authority (over the enemy, in Jesus' name).  We need to quit putting up with/allowing problems, to be fed-up enough to act, to have nothing human to retreat to when cornered, & to never quit.  Never. 
We need to (die to self & family) & to declare war on the devil. 
The devil will attack whatever/ whoever we are holding onto.

Hinn, Pastor William - The Dimension of the Kingdom - http://www.williamhinn.org/ - Resurrection Life Center, Tustin, California, USA - http://sigler.org/hinn/ - Willie is brother of Benny Hinn  www.tbn.org/about/newsletter/0005/000510.htm
Free DVD of Benny Hinn interview with brother aired on northeast coast TV 11/3-4/2006 www.bennyhinn.org
Significance of interview is that once we ask Jesus to be our savior, Lord & baptizer,
then the kingdom of God moves into our body.  When the King lives in our body, the kingdom of God has come. 
It is not in heaven.  It is here in us.  We begin to be less and less; the Holy Spirit begins to be more and more.  There comes a time when there is no room left for neediness.  It becomes impossible for us to be bound.  Excepting Adam/Eve/Enoch, Jesus Christ is the mold/template/blueprint/example/ mentor/model for all mankind, the first/most perfect of a new race/breed/kind of human for which God intended all along for us to become. 
Jesus not only illustrated how we were to accomplish this, but he also opened the door to its possibility, by His birth/death/resurrection/ascending to heaven/sending the Holy Spirit.  This is NOT something of the past, nor something of the future; it is a now reality, for anyone who chooses it.  The evil spirit needs a body in which to operate best; likewise, the Holy Spirit works best in a body - yours and mine.  That is His joy.  His delight. 
His original plan when God created the universe!  It is not a necessity nor a need. 
Yet it is an emotional need, His emotional need, His design, His requirement.  His best for us. 
His prayer for us is to choose Him, to ask Him to accomplish in us His perfect plan. 
Father God, in the name of Your son, Jesus Christ, come into my life; forgive & remove permanently all my sins and the sins of my forefathers; be my savior; be my Lord; baptize me with Your Holy Spirit; grow me up to be the person You created me to be; let me be a blessing to You; I thank You in advance; amen.

(Both the evil spirits & the Holy Spirit want to dwell in human flesh; let us choose aright. 
God has not only created us, He has also chosen us; let us choose Him in return. 
He has entrusted/endowed us with His most precious jewels/treasures/power. 
Let us be aware of our inheritance/our spiritual genealogy/our calling/purpose/destiny in life. 
Disown all lies of who you were or are.  The only real/effective/spiritual truth is who you are in Christ Jesus. 
A born again Christian is a fish out of water, powerless without the baptism in the Holy Spirit, & powerless to act without the knowledge that each of us has the NOW power to do what Christ did yesterday.

Audio
cassettes - set of 12 - Superior content but inferior sound track - Wright says that when the mirror speaks negatively to us, we can respond by replying that we will have a new body in heaven.  God put us on earth "as is".  We will have to put up with us, until the Holy Spirit gets His working papers to clean up our lives. 
Accusing evil spirits, voices in our heads, GO under the feet of Jesus, IN THE NAME OF JESUS CHRIST, for now we recognize you.  Be reminded that condemnation is of Satan & that conviction is of God.  Condemnation "puts us down" & demoralizes us.  Conviction draws us to Christ our forgiver & helper.  In scripture, Christ told the woman caught in adultery, "Neither do I condemn you.  Go & sin no more."  God's heart & nature melts our heart with kindness, whereas Satan's heart & nature destroys every relationship, every mind, every soul, every body.

Bevere,
Lisa - http://www.messengerinternational.org - Wife of John Bevere.  Lisa shares on Joyce Meyer 3/31/2009 TV broadcast http://www.joycemeyer.org that God told her to focus on Him & His plans for her destiny rather than on herself & on her failures & shortcomings present and past. 
We find this negative mindset too often in the therapy office. 
Yes, we do need to repent, even daily, but our focus, our driveness, is to be on HIM and allowing Him in us to leak out a fragrance that will recharge the atmosphere with His electricity, His power, His mind. Our attention is NOT to be on ME but on HE.  (Holy Spirit, I want and ask You to be my primary counselor.  Lord, I repent on the me, myself & I, self preoccupation.  Lord, I ask Your Holy Spirit to help redirect my focus to Jesus Christ, my Lord and Savior.  Lord help me to hear and recognize Your voice.  Help me to obey Your voice.  Lord, Help me to resist and reject incorrect unhealthy thinking, especially the "I" thoughts, like, I am no good, I always say/do thus and so, I cannot, I-I-I.  
Also, please bring me at least one close friend to help me in this regard. I thank You, in Jesus name

"I have met those who believed that they were the anti-Christ. They thought they were the son of Satan.
1 man believed he had only half of a soul. Others believed that they committed the unpardonable sin.
Many have told me that they were beyond redemption. One lady told me she had sex with demons.
(It wasn’t enough to battle lustful thoughts like most of us; she had to make her sin even worse than it was.)
Others thought they committed gross sins that even the blood of Christ could not cleanse them.  They were beyond the ability for God to forgive. (Tom calls these delusions, which sometimes they are, but at other times demonic activity is real in the lives of patients.  However, because Tom understands spiritual warfare, he is often able to help free victims from mental illness, regardless of the root causes)...
Caleb silenced the people before Moses and said, 'We should go up & take possession of the land, for we can certainly do it.' But the men who had gone up with him said, 'We can't attack those people; they are stronger than we are.' 
They spread among the Israelites a bad report about the land they had explored.
They said, 'The land we explored devours those living in it. All the people we saw there are (giants) of great size.
We saw the Nephilim there [the descendants (of fallen angels and humans) of Anak come from the Nephilim ].
We seemed like grasshoppers in our own eyes, and we looked the same to them.'
(Numbers 13:30-14:1
Notice their problem. They seemed like grasshoppers in their own eyes.
They had no confidence in themselves to defeat the enemy.
There is something positive to be said about self esteem.
There is nothing wrong to have self confidence, if the confidence is rooted in God’s Word.
Pride is when you think you can accomplish great things on your own without God."

"Now to Him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly beyond all that we ask or think, according to the power that works within us, to Him be the glory in the church and in Christ Jesus to all generations forever and ever. Amen.  (Ephesians 3:20-21 NASB)...
We all need to let go and let God do exceedingly, superabundantly, beyond any measurable earthly instrument is able to calculate. Super beyond what any Einstein brain tissue can understand. We need to not just think outside the box but go beyond by looking back inside & releasing (venting) His faith and power that is already resident inside of us by the deposit of the Holy Ghost. Quit looking way out yonder for Him…He is within...
This is what brings all the glory & honor to our King. When we go beyond our self (brain tissue) always defaulting to it’s own ceiling limit of circumstantial experiences & the dreaded paralysis of analysis (i.e. Unbelief)!"

The Scriptures here are pointing us into a mysterious portal of what true spiritual freedom & liberty is all about.  It is the 'Wasteland Intoxication Effect' . It is in the place of nothing (i.e. wasteland) that He meets & brings us back into His original pattern of creation...Abba is wooing us outside the camp of the old wineskin & into the new...So be bold & courageous to go outside the camp & surrender totally to Him. He will sustain you by possessing you with the atmospherics of His Glory realm as is seen here in Proverbs 8. It is in this wasteland of nothing that actually is the greatest portal to the true Spiritual realm."  [When we have come to the end of self (me/myself/I) we become empty/available

Rees Howells : Intercessor - http://vnesdoly.blogspot.com/2005/05/book- review-rees-howells-intercessor.html -
"Shortly after he returned to Wales in 1904, the Welsh revival broke out. He became involved in it & worked at discipling new converts. However, he & his friends sensed spiritual needs in their own lives. In the summer of 1906 they spent their summer holiday at the Llandrindod Wells convention (a Welsh equivalent to the English Keswick Conference) where Howells made a pivotal decision.  From the 1st meeting, Howells was deeply moved. 
The realization dawned on him that the
Holy Spirit was a person, not an ‘influence.’ In his words:
'He said to me, "As the Savior had a body, so I dwell in the cleansed temple of the believer. I am a
Person. I am God, and I am come to ask you to give your body to Me that I may work through it. I need a body for My temple, but it must belong to Me without reserve, for 2 persons with different wills can never live in the same body.
Will you give me yours? But if I come in, I come as God, & you must go out. I shall not mix Myself with your self
."
This precipitated a 5-day struggle in Mr. Howells.
From the 1st, he realized it was an unconditional surrender, of which he said:
'I had received a sentence of death, as really as a prisoner in the dock. I had lived in my body for 26 years.
Could I easily give it up?....I wept for days. I lost 7 pounds....
Nothing is more real to me than the process I went through for that whole week.
The
Holy Spirit went on dealing with me, exposing the root of my nature which was self
You can only get out of a thing what is in its root. Sin was canceled.  It wasn’t sin He was dealing with
It was self
'... Some of the things he (Howells) came to a point of surrender over:
1. His love of money: 'The Lord told him that He would take out of his nature all taste for money & any ambition for the ownership of money.'
2. His choice in making a home: 'I saw I could never give my life to another
person, to live to (for) that one alone."
3. His ambition: 'Supposing he had a mission in a town & another mission opened in the same place.  If there was jealousy between the 2, it was better for the town only to have 1, then it would be his which would have to go.'
4. His right to a good reputation: 'As he was thinking of men of the Bible who were full of the
Holy
Ghost, & particularly John the Baptist, the Lord said to him, "Then I may live through you the kind of life I lived through them."'  Finally on Friday of that week he came through.
The book continues with stories of how God worked through this man teaching him faith and intercession as he prayed for the sick, prayed for the salvation of friends & acquaintances, gave up raising his own son to work as a missionary, traveled without any money in his pocket, bought estates, established a Bible school, & prayed for international events, especially during the World War II. All the while God also continued to deal with his self-life...
In all his experiences & training, the Lord had a 2-fold purpose: blessing the needy & transformation of His servant. 'The Holy Ghost took me through grade after grade. The process of changing one’s nature (replacing the self nature with the divine nature) was very slow & bitter. In my boyhood days the strictest man I knew was my schoolmaster, but how often I said that the Holy Ghost was a thousand times more strict. 
The schoolmaster could only judge by actions, but the Holy Ghost was judging by the motive. The Lord would always corner me, with yet another test. After having been made acutely aware of the my weaknesses & inability to fulfill, I would laugh & say, 'Yes Lord, you pull me through.' This was the way the Spirit 'Who never pushes' drew him with bands of love.  Shame and ridicule were also lessons contained in the textbook of spiritual learning. 
For a time the Spirit would not allow him to wear a hat when going out – something unheard of in that day.
On another occasion he was called to live as the Nazarite described in Numbers 6. 'I told the Holy Spirit I knew of no one who had been called to do this such a thing in this generation, But, as always, He insisted in getting at the real reason for my unwillingness. “Tell me the truth,” He said, “Why are you not willing to walk like Samuel, or John the Baptist?”' Rees knew he had to go through with it; it was not just 'kicking against the pricks.'
As usual, he had to say, 'Pull me through,' and I needed pulling...
Holy Ghost said to us, ‘You must prove to me that you love the souls of the Africans...more than you love your own son.' Many a time I had preached about Abraham offering up Isaac. How little I had realized what it meant to him...
His aunt & uncle raised him as their own, even changing his name to Samuel Rees.  The Lord was rich in blessing. He accepted Christ at 12, later attended Oxford University. Eventually, when the Howells returned from the mission field, he assumed the calling that was on him for ministry, & worked side by side with his father.

Jackson, John Paul 3/2009 - The day God made you perfect - http://www.streamsministries.com/index.php - excellent
"What Satan did - The issue is that we have an enemy who wants us to live as far from freedom as possible.
He’s wanted this from the beginning, when he saw that God had created 2 people who were, in every sense of the term, absolutely perfect. God shaped them with His fingers. They were lovely in form and in spirit & carried His likeness in a way that possibly no one has experienced other than Jesus Himself.
They walked in perfect union with Him and carried His authority. 
So Satan worked to deceive them, & by the end of the day, human perfection had become nothing but legend...
The earth & everything upon it began to warp
.
What God did - For millennia, Satan ruled seemingly unhindered, covering the once-perfect earth in darkness & sin. But then one day, in a single day, the Perfection of Heaven willingly submitted Himself unto the same death that had taken His perfect ones in the beginning; He then descended into Hell, held out His hand & took back what Adam & Eve had given Satan in the Garden.  This is what Jesus did for us. He came to make us perfect once again. The unbelievable thing is that He succeeded. Somehow, in the midst of our faults, He calls us perfect, flawless (Song of Solomon 4:7, 6:9), white as snow (Isaiah 1:18)But we have such a hard time believing this. Why? Because the devil will do anything he can to rule over us again (1 Peter 5:8). After Jesus’ death & resurrection, Satan, who was and is utterly defeated, devoted himself to doing what he had done in the beginning - trying to destroy the perfection God created. Therefore, it takes daily decisions on our part not to believe what he insists is trueBe alert. The devil will play with your head. He will try to convince you that your sin is too great for the blood of Jesus to cover. He will confuse you into thinking that his way is the only way; that you are the defeated one; that you are ugly and flawed and could never, ever possibly be what God wantsAfter years of believing these lies, it is war to believe the opposite. It is a struggle to put 2 and 2 together and realize that Jesus did not go to the cross for nothing. The perfection of God gives us the opportunity to see ourselves & our lives as Heaven sees them - not faultless, but absolutely perfect, because He is able to make us perfectThe perfection I’m talking about means that we can present ourselves, humble & empty before Him, and He can fill us up.
It means resting in Him, as His perfection comes and rubs out our cracks and crevices and makes us whole.
As I recently wrote on Coffee Talk, some of us have more cracks than others, but there are no cracks that the Spirit of God cannot rub out. Passionate and persistent pursuit of Him will be rewarded

To witness His perfection in your life, there are 2 things you must do. 1st, supply you, in humility & without pretense, and 2nd, be willing to change the way you thinkThe rest, to His great joy & eagerness, is up to HimYou will be amazed at how these 2 decisions change your life."
Eckhardt, John  basically says the same thing. TAKE your spiritual inheritance NOW. 
Scripture says that the violent violently take captivity captive. http://www.impactnetwork.net/pdf/TheKingdom.pdf
"Today, people look up to heaven looking for something to happen when God is saying (showing us in scripture,) My Kingdom is right here, right now. When you hear the Gospel of the Kingdom of God, Seize it! Grab hold of it and press toward it. Don’t miss it
."

Jackson, John Paul  3/2009  The Day God Made You Perfect - http://www.streamsministries.com/index.php?page=eletter&article_id=148  "Jesus...came to make us perfect once again & the unbelievable thing is that He succeeded. Somehow, in the midst of our faults, He calls us perfect, flawless (Song of Solomon 4:7, 6:9),
white as snow (Isaiah 1:18)...
But we have such a hard time believing this! Why? Because the devil will do anything he can to rule over us again (1 Peter 5:8)...It takes daily decisions on our part not to believe what he (the devil) insists is true.  Be alert.
The devil will play with your head. He will try to convince you that your sin is too great for the blood of Jesus to cover.

It is a struggle to put 2 and 2 together and realize that Jesus did not go to the cross for nothing...He (God) is able to make us perfect...We can (DAILY) present ourselves, humble & empty before Him. He can (begin to) fill us up.

Joshua, TB Warfare Is Necessary for Victory  6/12/2007 - http://www.scoan.com/sermons_pdf/birthday%20message.pdf
"Jesus never begged anyone to believe in HIM. HE knew that integrity cannot be proven; it must be discerned... Wisdom and the grace of God cannot be taken from you because it is not given by man...Do not lose heart. God sometimes allows HIS children to experience persecution in order to toughen (strengthen) them for the greater heights ahead and the challenges that follow...In my own case, persecution has always been a tonic to my anointing. The more the persecution we receive, the greater the opportunity we have to move closer to God for strength and renewal, knowing that if gold must be worth its sort/kind, I mean, if gold must be gold, it must pass through fire.  If a clay pot is to be strong, it must go through intense heat. As gold is tested by fire, so also, human character is tested in the furnace of humiliation. Glory be to God,  the more we are persecuted, the more we attract God’s attention He who desires triumph/victory must be ready to embrace war...Jephthah...was an example of the rise of a man to prominence from rejection (Judges 11). He was persecuted & denied the right to belong. God often humbles those whom HE designs to exalt & makes them the stone the builders reject which finally becomes the head of the cornerstone. Joseph, Moses & David, the 3 most prominent shepherds of Israel were all rejected & persecuted by men before they were called of God to great offices. This is how God prepares HIS servants for the service HE designs them for & makes their trouble work for their advancement...We are not in any way suggesting that we have arrived. Far be it, this is our humble way of thanking God for not allowing our enemies to triumph over us. ‘Blessed are you when men shall revile you and persecute you, and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely for My sake.  Rejoice & be exceedingly glad for great is your reward in Heaven; for so they persecuted the prophets who were before you’ (Matthew 5:10-11)."

An evil spirit "Leaves very easily. As forgiveness & inner healing happen, (an evil) spirit is easily dealt with...
On occasion I have prayed from the platform at a large, public healing service to free people from the spirits of trauma whose names came to me in prayer. I have done this calmly, & usually there is little audible response. Afterward anywhere between 10-20 people out of a congregation of say, 200 will tell me they felt something quietly leave. The following is from a letter I received from a woman recently:
'When you prayed on Saturday night for the spirits of grief & rejection to leave in the name of Jesus, I felt something moving through my body each time & out both arms (which were raised in prayer).
It was awesome. At the same time I became aware of great peace all through my body.'"

It is an amazing story that is full of divine intervention and sets the stage for where the ministry & kingdom of God is headed. The key events of this story happened in 1998-99."

"In walking around the (air plane) wreckage she (a widow) was attracted to a window blown out of the airplane.
As she picked it up she said, 'It was like electricity was flowing though it.'
As soon as she said that, I felt impressed in my spirit with, 'It is a prophetic picture of a window I'm opening in heaven, & I am going to pour out My spirit'”...
"
In the dream I (a widow) saw the Bible story of Elisha's bones portrayed with a dead man thrown into a cave onto a pile of bones and he came alive. I suddenly sat up on my bed. As I did God said to me, 'There is a similar resurrection anointing at the grave site on the mountaintop where the great men are buried.'
"'I again had a similar out-of-body experience. Again the anointing was incredible, but this time God told me what I was seeing. It was 'self & spirit fighting.' He said, 'They have been fighting since the beginning. But I am sending David Martin to that grave sight he told you about.
I am going to release to him a resurrection anointing that will cause spirit to overtake self.'”


Matthews, Victor M    The Daily Affirmation of Faith    http://www.gracenotebook.com/pub/335
"God loved me and chose me in Christ before time began (Eph. 1:1-7)...
I sincerely receive Christ as my deliverance from Satan & take my position with Him in the heavenlies asking the Holy Spirit to apply to me the work of the Ascension. In His Name I submit myself to God & stand against all Satanic influence & subtilty. In cooperation with & dependence upon God, I obey the command to 'resist the Devil' (Eph.1:20-23;2:5,6;4:27; 6:10-18; Col. 1:13; Heb. 2:14,16; James 4:7; I Pet. 5:8,9)."

At 16 she ran away.  After she was forgiven for her sins, a man followed her home and raped her.  However, Jesus also followed her home & was able to minister His love to her, especially through the ministry of Joyce Meyer.

@
http://www.joycemeyer.org/OurMinistries/Broadcast/TV/Archive/ - There is a difference between your who & your do.  If you are a child of God, then your who needs to begin to line up with your do.  Your me needs to begin to line up with your be.  Your image needs to line up with who you are in God's family = loved, treasured, valuable. 
We need to not walk by what we feel/see/experience but by trust/faith in God.  We need to water God's holiness/goodness/fruit/gifts/deposits/ seed/righteousness in us by reading (aloud) God's Word.
Meyer, Joyce    Power Thoughts - Pt 2  4//8/2008  http://www.joycemeyer.org/OurMinistries/Broadcast/TV/Archive/20080408.htm

Saint Antony - http://www.fordham.edu/halsall/basis/VITA-ANTONY.html - (edited excerpt) "49. But when he (Antony) saw himself beset by many, & not suffered to withdraw himself according to his intent as he wished, fearing because of the signs (miracles, healing, casting out of demons) which the Lord wrought by him, that either he should be puffed up, or that some other should think of him above what he ought to think, he considered & set off to go into the upper Thebaid, among those to whom he was unknown. Having received loaves from the brethren, he sat down by the bank of the river, looking whether a boat would go by, that, having embarked thereon, he might go up the river with them. While he was considering these things, a voice came to him from above, 'Antony, whither goest thou & wherefore?' But he no way disturbed, but as he had been accustomed to be called [16a] often thus, giving ear to it, answered, saying, 'Since the multitude permit me not to be still, I wish to go into the upper Thebaid on account of the many hindrances that come upon me here, & especially because they demand of me things beyond my power.' But the voice said unto him, 'Even though you should go into the Thebaid, or even though, as you have in mind, I you should go down to the Bucolia [17], you will have to endure more, aye, double the amount of toil. But if you wish really to be in quiet, depart now into the inner desert.' When Antony said, 'Who will show me the way for I know it not?' immediately the voice pointed out to him Saracens about to go that way. So Antony approached, drew near them & asked that he might go with them into the desert. They, as though they had been commanded by Providence, received him willingly. Having journeyed with them 3 days & nights, he came to a very lofty mountain, & at the foot of the mountain ran a clear spring, whose waters were sweet & very cold.
Outside there was a plain & a few uncared-for palm trees."

You do NOT necessarily have demon problems but rather thought problems.  Rejection needs a going away party;
rejection means it is time to be promoted.  God's inspirations/wind/Holy Spirit enters into you, for you to exhale into others. When we operate at or flow with a low frequency, we are operating on demonic levels, on obsolete technologies.  We need to download new upper bandwidths & operate on God's upper levels.

One needs to repent 1st prior to one's eviction of demons.  
If the faith, hope, &/or love of Corinthians is missing in one's heart, then that exposes the existence of the opposite, a demonic presence, negative emotions/feelings that rise up, grip, control, and/or push.

Sharper Than a 2 Edged Sword
-
 Our transformation from insecurity/inadequacy to audacity/adequacy is often based on our recognition of the fact  that our salvation affects the human spirit rather than the soul or body, at least initially + the fact that we are an eternal never dying spirit having a soul & living in a body.

(Thus we are like a caterpillar who sheds its encasement, acquires wings & flies.
For many, this mental turn around may occur when one requests/expects/receives/takes Holy Spirit baptism.
Spiritual conception (engagement to Jesus) occurs when Yeshua becomes our savior from sin & Lord of our Life.
Spiritual birth (our Pentecost/conformation/wedding) occurs when Holy Spirit fills & unites with human spirit.
There may be a gestation time, between our repentance + inviting Jesus to be Lord, and our personal Pentecost the same as experienced by the disciples.  Spiritual sanctification begins in earnest after our spiritual marriage & lasts until death, in sync with our vows.)

Allowing Others to Bully, Define or Manipulate Us?

http://www.dare2share.org/students/the-cosmic-bully/

[PDF] THE BULLY PRINCIPLE - Satan’s Underground by Lauren Stratford -
"Maybe you never thought of Satan (or any evil spirit) as a bully.
You may remember (be experiencing) the bully in school who delighted (delights) in being cruel to a smaller or weaker person? The bully never picks on a person his own size for fear of losing.
 He often teases, intimidates & threatens without ever intending to carry out those threats."
The Secret behind the Bully Principle: "Satan comes creeping in and whispers such bully tactics
(& demonically inspired/instigated what psychologists call negative self-talk or even inner vows) as:
'You’re (I am) not going to make it.'
'You’ll (I will) never win; things aren’t going to change for you (me).'
'You are (I am) too bad; you are (I am) dumb; no one will listen to you (me).'
'You (I) might as well give up, (I am a) loser.'
'You’re (I am) ugly; you’re (I' am) too fat; no one can possibly like you (me).'
'You’ll (I will) never fit in; you (I) have nothing good to offer.'
'You are (I am) a Christian; you’re (I am) not supposed to have these things in you (my) life.
(I need to) Forgive & forget, what’s the big deal?' (Words can never hurt me.)"
(However) "You can exert your right as a child of God and say to Satan, 'I recognize you, Satan (& your accomplices), for what you are a defeated foe at the cross of Jesus Christ. I will not bow down to you.
I will use the power that Jesus Christ has given me through His word & through prayer to stand firm against you, your lies & your cohorts. Be gone in Jesus’ name, now.'"
"When the warfare becomes the heaviest & we feel the weakest, that’s when Satan likes to play the bully role."
(However we can) "Say...scriptures again & again. Be specific when using the word of God. Jesus did. 
He said, "
It is written..."
When Satan tries to tell you negative lies to cause guilt, shame, anger & etc., quote specific scripture, always out loud.
When Satan would taunt you with fear & threaten to drive you crazy, say to him, 'The word of God says:
God has NOT given us a spirit of fear but of power, love & a sound mind (2 Timothy 1:7).
Greater is He who is in me than he who is in the world. (1 John 4:4)
(Because of this truth, in Jesus name we can bind the "bully evil-spirit" inside the person attempting to bully you at school.)  If God be for us, who can be against us? (Rom. 8:31)
Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you (James 4:7). There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus (Rom 8:1). Therefore we do not lose heart. Even though our outward man is perishing, yet the inward man is being renewed day by day. (2 Corinthians 4:16)."
The Bully Principle prayer: "Satan, I resist you and every oppressive spirit in the name of Jesus.
I resist fear, discouragement, self-pity & depression. I speak the Word of truth, in the power of God.
I give you no place in my life. I give no opportunity to you.  I am delivered from oppression by the blood of the Lamb. My heart belong to Jesus, my Lord & Savior & Him only will I serve. (In Jesus name I speak.) Amen."

Negative Self-Image

God says His name is I AM.  Therefore we are to identify with Him.  We are to say,
In Him I AM (forgiven, healed, delivered, righteous, holy, healthy, etc.)
We are NEVER to agree with Satan and say, I AM (weak, sick, dying, hopeless, skum, etc.)
Yes, we are to die to self, but never to God.  God is daily to become more inside of us,
while we become less, leaving more room for Him to operate in & through us. 
We are His physical body, acing on His behalf.

Being an Outcast

1st Corinthians 4:13 Stern -
When we are slandered...we are the world's garbage, the scum of the earth, yes, to this
moment.

 

Holtz, Scott & Dalit - http://earlymorningmanna.com/blasts/11qYesJu3R/11Mar24.html - 3/24/2011
The Pleasure Access
- "I also have discovered an access to maximizing more pleasure inducing operations for God's glory.  What I mean by 'pleasure inducing operations', is that of yielding to windward spontaneous assignments that bring God such glory, honor & praise, while also strategically bringing down the hidden works of evil that have been cleverly planned by the arch enemy of our souls.  These operations require clothing your-self in the reproach of being known as the scum of the earth motif (
I Cor. 4:13) & is opposite the popular self centered destiny & success in life messages that dominate most Christian media outlets in this hour. 
It is my reverent prayer that many will get back to reading the original context of the Scriptures & flush themselves of the man-made winds of doctrine that have sprung up out of the carnality base of seeking an expanded comfort zone in life. 

It is in this camouflaged entrance to the secret place of the Most High one can discover an access to pleasure that supersedes any pleasure found in sinful living and worldly delights.  Whether it be entertainment or fulfilling carnal impulses, there is a zone of pleasure that is found in God's secret glory realm that surpasses anything found in this fallen age.  It is a zone of access that mysteriously enshrouds God's bondservants as they seek only to please Him with a zeal unmatched by any endorphin rush pleasure that so many seek out in our day of adventure entertainments.  It is a holy & pure zone of having God's approval & favor injected into your life that overwhelms the natural senses.  I'm labeling it the "Pleasure Access" & this secret place is available only to those who desire to drink the cup of Gethsemane's death."

MICHELLE: Guilt is a condition that you find yourself in because of wrongdoing, because of a (unconfessed) sin you have committed. For instance, you could find someone guilty in a court of law by presenting the evidence of what they did. If you were to confess to something, you would say, "I'm guilty of that." It is the condition or the standing that a person is in. But shame is the painful feeling in the conscience that that sin produces. I had dealt with the guilt, but I'd never dealt with the shame. Guilt affects the way God can relate to you, but shame affects the way you relate to God.  That's what I had missed..
MICHELLE: When you recognize the difference between the guilt & the shame that teaches you how to apply them separately, the blood being applied in both directions. If you would have asked me, "Do you believe that the blood of Jesus has paid your sin debt?" Of course I believe that's why I was able to receive Him as my Lord because I put faith in his sacrifice that His blood was the appropriate sacrifice to cleanse me of the record of my wrongdoing. To take that, all of the sin that was piled up in my life & remove it off my record.
But because I didn't understand that shame was NOT supposed to be still operative in my life, I had never applied the blood or didn't even know I could. I just had only really interacted with the blood that 1 time in my Christian life until I began to read. Then I found a scripture in the book of Hebrews, Hebrews chapter 9, "If the blood of bulls & goats was good to sanctifying of the flesh under the old covenant, how much more shall the blood of Christ purify the conscience so that we can serve God?" I began to verbally say out of my mouth, "I believe...
I apply the blood (of Jesus) by faith to that area of my life. Whenever shame would try to surface, I had to stop, deal with it, apply the blood to it AND release my faith in the blood to cleanse me of that shame.

Up play (reward/emphasize) the positive, while down playing (forgiving/concentrating
less on) the negative.  Emphasis is on grades kindergarten through 9.

Observer Effect - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Observer_effect - (physics) -   

Quantum physics has research and theories whereby material at its infancy reacts positively or negatively, but only when observed.  Our cells/DNA KNOW when we are being observed, whether by humans or spirits (evil or holy).  It is no wonder that we also know we are being observed 24/7 by God &/or demons. 
We also know when others are looking.  Call it insight, intuition, or whatever, but our cells apparently DO know. 
Paranoia, in reality, it not so weird or false. 
Medical science is just not up to speed with physics & cutting edge religious practices like exorcism. 
(Science has found that animal/human behavior can change when they/we realize we are being observed.)

Prophetic Ministry

Visulation DANGERs

VISUALIZATION is one of the basic rules of the majority of non-Christian spiritual proselytism/indoctrination.  
Michaelsen
, Johanna - Like Lambs to the Slaughter - Your Child and the Occult
chapter 7 Shamanism 101 - What You See is What You Get
says that purposeful deliberate visualization would be equivalent to Christian faith. 
The DANGER is when when our mind actively ASKS (invites) the "guide" in one's mind's eye to come. 
Rather than asking an evil spirit to come, we need to be asking the Holy Spirit to come. 
Ignorance of truth is NO spiritual/legal excuse; Satan always comes in sheep's clothing, always.
See chapter 8 How to Meet Your Spirit Guide ."
(Actually "visualization" is often used as a Catholic inner-healing modality. 
Just use caution and always LISTEN to the Holy Spirit.)

Commentary

We all are self-conscious, aware of others looking at us, to some degree.  Why? 
Because we are auditing ourselves 24/7.  Others are noticing us.  Additionally, there are also 2 other invisible kingdoms watching us, God's via His angels, such as our guardian angels + the smaller/inferior demonic kingdom. 
Thus, to some degree, paranoia is normal, rather than an evil oddity per a DSM psychiatric/insurance diagnosis.  Ha.  Additionally, per quantum physics even matter is self conscious and responds accordingly.  Ha.

                                                             Are we labeled with a "Scarlet Letter"

The Scarlet Letter is a book & idea that someone is known as
broken/disabled/disqualified/defective/disfunctional/inferior/junk/rejected
based on another's &/or the devil's opinion/diagnosis/curse/ideology/doctrine/view/perspective.
When that occurs, the individual often eventually concurs & thus behaves/obliges accordingly.
When a psychiatric doctor places an evil DSM diagnosis/life-sentence on an unsuspecting patient, that can damage his/her soul (invisible mind/emotions/willpower) permanently, UNLESS s/he refutes that & begins to over-ride/rule it with G-ds scriptural word.  Without a miracle, it may take a long time for one's soul & character to come into alignment with Father G-d's 3rd holy heaven, as it may have been a long time since one become ill.
It is imperative that we become whole in our spirit, soul & body, as we each were placed here in this family & generation for a specific purpose by Father G-d Himself.  2nd many innocent beautiful people are being exterminated by elitists.  Certainly, those labeled as defective may be the next on their hit list to die prematurely.
Father G-d, You are our helper, healer, deliverer & protector.  With Your iron-dome/blood-covering, NO weapon formed against us will prosper, in Jesus' name.  3rd We petition You to erase/lose/remove all our negative medical records, so they can NOT be used against us.  We invite You to defend us in Your holy heavenly court.  In love & appreciation we thank You, in advance.  Amen.  Now, in Jesus' name we invite (or recommit/reaffirm ourself to) You as Lord, Messiah, Savior, Holy Spirit baptizer, healer, deliverer & the greatest treasure & gift in our life.  Thanks/Amen.
