Everyone knows that the childhood chant of “sticks and stones will break my bones, but words will never hurt me” is patently false. Words do hurt and wound, but most people do not understand that spiritual life and death flow from what we speak and what has been spoken over us. [Read more…]

“Released to Soar” Deliverance Seminar Testimonial
I know in my heart that the Lord was with me the 8th day of February (deliverance ministry session). Although I was hoping that I could say I became free on that day, it wasn’t until six days later that I realized it. On the Saturday night of the Released to Soar seminar, I felt exhausted. There was turmoil in my head, and I barely slept that night. I was in the midst of making a decision about my current intimate relationship. [Read more…]
7 Reasons Guide : Reason 5
Reason #5
Be a Victor Over Your Past and Not a Victim of It.
Many people have a “woe is me” victim mentality or mindset. That is the teaching and viewpoint that is typically reinforced in the world. As a result, the focus is on coping with the past not getting past it!
Jesus knew that Forgiveness was a powerful spiritual weapon. He knew that bad things happen to good people but he also knew that Forgiveness turned the tables on Satan and was a light on the path to healing. Maybe you have had some horrific hurts and traumas in your life. Secular counselors frequently will address the need for forgiveness but do not understand and expound upon the power and expectancy for victory as you walk that out.
A Christian counselor will teach you in much more depth about the nature and benefits of forgiveness. What it is, what it is not and why it is important? If you are saying that you cannot forgive someone for something they did to you then you really do need to go to a Christian counselor to understand why it is so vital.
If the notion of forgiving someone is so painful or repugnant to you then you need to consider this: Unforgiveness is like drinking poison and expecting the other person to get sick! Yes, that really is how it operates! You owe it to yourself to understand how this is so and why forgiveness is such an important part of being made whole.
Another foundational teaching in the bible is on the possibility of becoming a new creation, of getting a “do over” in life. Yes, it is really possible!
Christian counseling will talk about how to get past our past in such a way that you can proactively change attitudes and behaviors, based upon the proven truths in the bible, to move confidently into the future.
Secular counselors focus on making a “better” you! The bible talks about the spiritual death of the “old” you and being reborn as a new creation! You will be able to put the past in the rear view mirror and walk with your hope renewed and eyes looking forward. Doesn’t that sound like a better option?
