We all have problems, or at least issues that we don't want in our lives; the question is what are we doing about them, and is it working?
Our behaviors are shaped by life experiences, and our personalities by the choices we have made. The Emotional Baggage we took on from those events shapes our relationships with God, Ourselves, and Others. There's NO Limit to the size of our Emotional Baggage, and No Limits to the effects on our lives or those around us.
Unfortunately, Christians are generally not willing to admit they still struggle after salvation, but most still need some type of help. Many believers today are living with secrets causing increased oppression.
Many Women (and Men too) were molested as children by a relative or friend, . . and have never shared their pain with anyone. The results can lead to promiscuity, unnatural fear, or to a same sex attraction to escape the hurt.
Many young guys (actually old guys, and even pastors) are trapped in the dark world of Pornography and Masturbation, but are too ashamed to admit it.
Many Christians have Addictions (Alcohol, Drugs, Sex, Shopping, TV, Sports, etc.) that dominate their daily lives. Too many times they don't recognize them, don't want to admit them, or simply don't want to give them up. They feel powerless to overcome them and assume they must live with the burdens.
Christians are living in unmarried households, without recognizing or caring what God says about fornication.
Abortions may have been forgiven but still cause guilt and shame that the enemy uses to control their lives and keep them in bondage.
Many Christians struggle with same-sex attraction, yet they fear that if they confess their thoughts, they will be rejected and condemned.
Too many churches have created a culture of denial. Christians are embarrassed to go to the Pastor, so they begin looking elsewhere for help.
Many go to the internet looking for suggestions; that's where it really gets dangerous. If they don't find help, the baggage stays with them, and it never gets dealt with or healed. It continues to grow.
Moses addressed this issue when the Israelites were preparing to enter the Promised Land. He told the new generation that was preparing to enter in that they would not enter unless they dealt with their own personal sins and also the sins of their fathers. The account can be found in Leviticus 26:39-42
Our churches will never reach their full potential, and we will never live the abundant life that Jesus promised until we clean out our spiritual closet and deal with all our issues and burdens.
It isn't easy, our Shame keeps us trapped!
Shame, the resulting Fear, and our attempts to Control our surroundings to avoid further hurt are very effective tools that the enemy uses to keep us bound. Eliminating those tools is a major component of our RTF Ministry, and is truly life changing.
We know making a choice to receive Inner Healing isn't easy, but we want to assure you that our ministry is totally confidential and non-judgmental. Our goal is to remove the roots of any demonic oppression, and eliminate the enemies' interference into your life, so you can be the person God intended for you to be.
