Bound Up by Fear by Tammy Lang Jensen

I want you to take a walk through the burial grounds with me. How many of these people do you think died with their potential locked up inside of them? Bound up by fear, rejection, hurt, pain, suicide, indifference, intolerance and sickness.

He asked me, “Son of man, can these bones live?” I said, sovereign Lord you alone know. Then he said to me, “Prophesy to these bones and say to them, dry bones hear the word of the Lord!” This is what the Lord Almighty says to these bones. I will make breath enter you, and you will come to life (Ezekiel 37:3-5). We cannot expect to live, if we are speaking death. And we cannot expect to prosper, if we are speaking lack. Speak life, life, and I say it again, “SPEAK LIFE!” You are anointed to set the captives free, break chains of addiction, obliterate the snares of depression, and annihilate soul ties that seek to destroy.

They seek to grab my children by their ankles and drag them back to the past. Jesus replied, “No one who puts a hand to the plow and looks back is fit for service in the kingdom of God.” (Luke 9:62). What we continue to practice, we will reap. He that is unjust, let him be unjust still: and he which is filthy, let him be filthy stIll: and he that is righteous, let him be righteous still: and he that is holy, let him be holy still (Revelation 22:11). God will not come in and deliberately hurt you. But he will let you live with the consequences of your choices. He says, “To repent, and turn from the world and turn to him.” Look, I am coming soon, bringing my reward with me to repay all people according to their deeds.

I am the Alpha and Omega, the first and the last, the beginning and the end (Revelation 22:12). Blessed are those who wash their robes, and prepare for my return. But seek ye first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be added unto you (Matthew 6:33). God is in the business of U-turns, second chances, eternal love so you get it right. But make no mistake, do not be deceived: God cannot be mocked, a man reaps what he sows (Galatians 6:7). If you want God to reward you, then find someone to reward.

The quickest way to find what you are looking for, is to give the same away. Give, and it will be given to you. A good measure, pressed down, shaken together and running over, will be poured into your lap. But with the measure you use, it will be measured to you (Luke 6:38). Give life away, receive life in return...
