Rip Off My beloved church, I watch as you struggle to take off the garments of your past life. You try to remove the past with tongs in your hands for fear of touching past sins. These garments wear heavily upon your thoughts, your memories, and even your shoulders, are slumped by their weight. The weight of depression, of oppression, of guilt, of shame, of not being able to hold on at times as the pain of the past, takes over your whole view of the present. I say stop trying to lift them away, rip them from your life, tear off that which hinders you, as the lies that they are, for I paid the price for every one of them upon the cross. I bore them in my body. My blood covers all your sins. I have given you a garment of praise, I have given you light for darkness, I have released my peace over all your life and every day of your life. You are dressed for eternity in me. (NIV) Zephaniah 3: 19-20 At that time I will deal with all who oppressed you. I will rescue the lame; I will gather the exiles. I will give them praise and honor in every land where they have suffered shame. At that time I will gather you; at that time I will bring you home. I will give you honor and praise among all the peoples of the earth when I restore your fortunes[a] before your very eyes,” says the Lord. (NIV) Revelation 12: 10-12 Then I heard a loud voice in heaven say: “Now have come the salvation and the power and the kingdom of our God, and the authority of his Messiah. For the accuser of our brothers and sisters, who accuses them before our God day and night, has been hurled down. They triumphed over him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony; they did not love their lives so much as to shrink from death. Therefore rejoice, you heavens and you who dwell in them! But woe to the earth and the sea, because the devil has gone down to you! He is filled with fury, because he knows that his time is short.” Copyright 2014 Fire Ministries International. House of the Prophetic fireministriesinternational.org
