Sometimes in deliverance counselling sessions (i.e. "deliverance ministry"), we come into
contact with various people from all walks of life, with differing issues and problems.
We have discovered that many ills that beset folks are not always "demonic issues" or
forces, per se. Often it seems, more often than not, these are afflicted with PROGRAMS.
Programming. This "programming" is a result of having been raised by parents or guardians
and even siblings that indoctrinate other children with "family mantras" and doctrines and
belief systems and concepts, which in retrospect, one could refer to some of these concepts
as "doctrines of demons", simply because how crazzzzzy and insane these concepts are.
Words are not just words. Words have power. For good, or for evil. And when those
words are LIES, they can do great damage. In genuine deliverance ministry, where
a person is truly set free and "delivered" from some bondage or stronghold, there
is often the "expectoration" or spitting out of the bad. And that's a good thing.
Unfortunately, some "deliverance ministers" will spend all day with a "subject" or "host"
who, let's say is OCD. I've seen it happen. These well-meaning but ignorant "ministers"
end up screaming and banging heads with "demons", and rebuking until their rebuker
is worn out, and accomplish very little. Truth be known, the exercising of the gifts of
the Spirit, word of knowledge for example, can get to the bottom of the problem. The
Spirit can reveal and unveil the "real culprits". It is usually some sort of TRAUMA,
some event or even hypnosis/mind control and programming. And not all "programmers"
are aware that they are, in fact, "programming" their children by repetition, rote, ritual
and even fear, to the point of subconscious embedding of information that will dictate
the path and direction and even behavior of that child for years and years to come.
This is how you end up with a "Sybil", or an adult with DID.
But I digress.
Expectation or 'expectations', in the positive realm, is a GOOD thing.
When we are expecting blessings or improvements to enter our lives, that
is a satisfying and rewarding feeling. "Good Parents" want their children
to excel, to succeed and have a happy life. "Good Friends" want their friends
to be happy and have their dreams come true. No argument there.
But when expectations are 'in the negative', they have to be "spit out".
They are LIMITERS. They are "the voices in my head" . . . the nagging
voices, the constant repetition of words, ideas, opinions, dark feelings and
beliefs spoken as "gospel truth", over and over and over again. It feels like
a force deep within the mind that cannot be easily grasped or yanked out.
Don't think that "nagging" and "hen-pecking" are not some other sure-fire
ways of programming people's minds in the home. Oh yes, they are.
In the psyche, when conflicting expectations from OTHERS are at war within,
the result can become disastrous. Let me explain by making a list.
1. "High Expectations". This is when parents/family members decide what
career or life direction or decisions you should make or go, which are
overly demanding and do not fit your makeup and personality.
2. "Low Expectations". Let's say that you're the only one in the family
that has ever desired and pursued college, even to graduation. You
desire to "make yourself into something greater", and you want a
career that is meaningfull, and maybe even life/world changing.
IF the rest of the family has set their sights "low" and the mentality
is just to "get by", you might find yourself battling a stronghold
from the family. Not that you won't win. You CAN win. But we
have seen the struggle of others who were handed this dynamic.
3. "No Expecations". You might as well call this "minus the cheering squad",
because one will ultimately feel that they are "all alone" in their life,
and with no visible "support team", it's hard to climb that mountain.
4. "Required Expectations". This is most difficult to deal with
as it represents the "family mantras" and doctrines that "the family"
puts upon a young adult, the grown "child" who is trying to find their
way in the world. Many times these "family mantras" are actually
"blockers" to inhibit growth, and limit success and prosperity to a living
of a static and "normal" or "typical" lifestyle, which for a "unique" person
or artistic person is just too restrictive.
5. "Demanding Expectations". This is literally the "what others are expecting
you to do with your life" programming . . . the complete OPPOSITE of
who you are, and where you want to be, to even the ATTACK of what
you want to do and be! This is the worst of them all. This is a malicious
and hateful affront, against YOU and your choices, your true destiny.
Although "destiny" has been defined as that dynamic that will break
through regardless of outward tampering ... a person who has been so
opposed may suffer some heartache for some time. If this is you, then
my advice is to EXPECTORATE! Spit it out!! The sooner the better,
for your own sanity and peace of mind. Who wants to be controlled
for all their life??
Well, there you have it, the FIVE I'm aware of. These are five strongholds
that need to be ejected, spat out of the mouth, dislodged from your being.
They get embedded in the subconscious mind, they have to be extracted.
And just like a bad computer program, "disable, uninstall and DELETE"
them! Spit 'em out!!
And of course, you should have your very own pure expectations,
like hopes and dreams, which can be the positive force for good and productivity and
success and prosperity in YOUR LIFE. Know this one thing: whatever has been
stolen from you CAN BE restored ... whatever has been blocked CAN BE "re-delivered" ...
whatever has died pre-maturely CAN BE RESURRECTED. There IS a God who
CARES, and CAN and WILL see this through. Believe you me. :D
