"RESTORING THE LOST YEARS"
Every
one of us have lost years of our lives to sickness, financial losses or
some other misfortune. Some have lost their youth from addictions, and
for those of you who are still battling with addictions, now is your
time to be set free. An addiction is an enslavement to something in the
natural that appears to be stronger than you.
Jesus spoke a parable saying: "No
one can enter a strong man's house and plunder his goods, unless he
first binds the strong man. And then he will plunder his house".
Jesus wants to deliver you today.
As
I was reading about the three different types of locusts in the book of
Joel, I found that the first locust mentioned is at an early stage of
development. The second type of locust was to devour and the third type
of locust was to totally annihilate. As I was studying this the Lord
gave me this word. The three types of locusts are an analogy of the
enemies who come to steal, kill and destroy. Jesus wants to recover
those years and bring restoration and completeness to your life.
The Lord says I will restore
the years that have been ravaged by the enemy and repair every wounded
place in your life. I will mend the areas that have been battered by the
winds of adversity so that your emotions will be healed and your soul
will be restored. I will destroy the strongholds, old mindsets and
memories which the enemy has placed in your thoughts. I will secure the
structures of your mind that have become warped and weakened. As you
allow Me to uncover the hidden agendas, I will make all things new and
satisfy the desolate wasteland. The turmoil that you are experiencing is
because I am uncovering the secret plans and strategies of the enemy
that need to be revealed. As you discontinue the hidden behavior that is
not pleasing to Me, you will be released into a new level of freedom.
Those of you who have been through horrendous years in your past will be
totally set free. Allow Me to remove the memories that vex you and
nightmares that torment you. I will pour My fresh oil, heal your broken
hearts and bind up your wounds.
Don't relive the thoughts from
the past and mistakes that have already been forgiven. Don't allow the
enemy to lacerate old wounds. Refuse to be intimidated by those who try
to belittle you. Be quick to forgive them and never allow unforgiveness
to take root which will bring a root of bitterness. Although people may
fail you, do not hold them accountable. I will never fail you nor break
My Covenant with you neither will I revise My promises to you. Ask Me
for wisdom and I will give it to you for all the affairs of your life.
As you turn to Me and allow Me to renew your mind and cleanse your
hearts you will find victory in the days ahead. My glory will be your
rear guard and you will go out with joy and be led forth in peace. My
goodness will go before you and you will be led in a victory that you
have not yet known. Allow Me to fill you with new courage, strength and
confidence which will redirect you into your destiny. Every area of your
life that you allow Me to take possession of will become fruitful and
you will become the person who I have created you to be says the Lord.
Psalm 147:3
He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds.
Joel 2: 24 - 25
The
threshing floors shall be full of wheat, and the vats shall overflow
with new wine and oil. "So I will restore to you the years that the
swarming locust has eaten, the crawling locust, the consuming locust,
and the chewing locust, My great army which I sent among you. You shall
eat in plenty and be satisfied, and praise the name of the Lord your
God, Who has dealt wondrously with you. And My people shall never be put
to shame.
John 10:10
The
thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I
have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more
abundantly.
