Codependency Treatment | Spirituality
It is necessary to be transformed by the spirit of God Himself to acquire a spirit filled life. Many so called Christians are not spirit filled and take pride in themselves rather than acknowledge God in humility for all they have in their life from health to materialistic things.
To be transformed you must be aware of the thoughts of your childhood that are making your life go in the direction it is. After you are aware find Biblical passages, which counteract them and memorize them until the subconscious programming changes. People act from their subconscious not their conscious until they have been transformed and thoughts brought up to the conscious level.
Don't ever get in a group where everyone chants or repeats the same things all the time. The only safe thing to repeat is the Bible and make sure you ask for discernment of what it means as it speaks in parables. Also, the culture it was written in must be taken into account. The Bible says A House Divided Cannot Stand.
The house it is taking about is your whole soul, spirit and mind. You can't be someone else as nobody is alike. You can't copy anyone else although you can read or talk to spiritually minded people about what you have trouble with and see if they have suggestions. Don't let anyone put a definition on you and be careful of adjectives as spirit is unlimited and you don't want to tie it down.
The Bible says life is to prosper. If the people of this country would ask God to be the Head of the Country like it was originally founded, the Bible says God would bring the people asking heath and prosperity and fill their houses with abundance. It also says If you have the faith as a seed of mustard, which is very small you can move a mountain. The mountain is life itself.
God wants people to have pleasure as was His original intent in Eden with the Tree of life before Adam and Eve sinned and ate the tree of knowledge. Knowledge is taking God's place and trying to be the creator instead of letting the Creator provide for you. How much easier to be the child.
Some verses to remember are:
Romans 8:21 In hope that creation itself will be liberated from it's bondage to decay and brought into glorious freedom of the children of God.
Matthew 4:2 It is written, Man does not live on bread alone but on every word that comes from the mouth of God.
Ephesains 6:16 Finally be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. Put on your full armor of God so that you can take your stand against all the devil's schemes. Finish the following verses to read what the armor is in God.
Below are some paraphrases written to be used as affirmations based on Bible verses.
An affirmation is a positive statement based on the truth.
It is not God's will His precious people suffer.
You are stronger that flesh and blood (your body) as the spirit lives in you.
God wills you be prosperous in a balanced ethical manner without using evil or dealing with evil and corruption, which is evident in the world.
Choose your company with care as they will be like you are. Make sure you stay with what you want to create.
What I give up to find God is only temporary loss and remains only for a season before the new seeds of prosperity manifests in a positive way.
The more I become whole and confident in the Lord it will pass on to the next generation and my direct descendants.
(This is helpful to remember for those of you with adult children where you see errors in your parenting. You can't go back but your transformation will naturally transform onto your children. It is never too late to change, but the sooner you work on it the sooner you and my family reap the benefits.)
I am responsible to change if my children are suffering as I brought them into the earth and they are a lifetime commitment. When they are in need as much as I can I give to them and build their soul and spirit up through positive prayer daily.
If my childhood has been painful admit it, as the truth is the beginning of liberation from the bonds that tie you to the painful past. Confronting your parents if they have not changed will probably not help but you can start putting limits and walk away if they abuse or ridicule the way you are. Let them know even though they will not change that they do not control your future. Set your sights on God and whatsoever things are pure, just and or good rapport.
Change takes time but God will always provide enough on the way to full prosperity as He knows your heart and what you are doing.
Do not be set back by appearances as they deceive you but keep the goal of being whole in mind. Ask God to build the house (which is you) indivisible on His foundation.
Nothing can go against the House that God has built.
Read about the miracles in the New Testament, which Christ did and quickly based on the faith of the individual. The spirit you are inviting to transform you is that same Christ who is the same no matter what culture or ethnic race you belong too.
Don't try to be Christ, let Him do the work and give Him the credit for what He does. Remember what He Himself said Of myself I do nothing , it is the Father who does the work. He knew the Father was God.
What is the difference between the earth and the world.
The Bible in Genesis says God created the earth and said it was good. He created all things in it after their own kind and said it was good. He called Adam to bring Him pleasure and not be alone and created Adam in His image. He created a helpmate (wife) to keep Adam company and said they were good. They walked in the garden, which was on the earth and visited with God.
There were many trees in the garden and God said they could eat on any of them but the tree of knowledge. The serpent convinced Eve God did not mean it and she ate the fruit and convinced Adam to do the same. The serpent convinced them they would then be as great as God. This caused them to be ashamed in front of God and they hid.
What they had done was brought evil into their minds and taken away all the provisions God had given of luxury and pleasure, which is the natural state of Spirit. They were forced by God to leave the garden as God does mean what He says. This is really a positive promise as if you let Him be the source of all you do it must prosper without much effort except to fight and withhold false influences. The benefits will be eternal life and liberation from hell into Eden of earth and become easier with time.
This is how the world began. When Adam and Eve left the garden it started the world of sin. Before that time all was perfect and good including man and all was eternal. It introduced corruption and evil and sin into the minds of men and women.
Most people on the earth believe this is natural but the resurrection of Christ over the world made it possible to return to Eden or the spiritual state on earth. It is a place in the mind that Eden is and it can be on earth. Because of all the brainwashing done from the day a child enters the earth (or world) it is difficult to get to this spiritual state but not impossible.
It takes hard work and the willingness not to know the future and leave behind any people, jobs, clubs or even churches that teach of the world. The world is to be overcome not taught. It is the earth that needs to be taught to leave the world. This may mean loss of friendships. temporary loss of your current standard of living but in the Spirit God says the Lord will double recompense what was taken by the world.
There will be a grieving stage because it is the loss of the past and what was known. It will leave you in an uncomfortable state for a while as change is frightening but if you say sure footed in the Lord and ground your day and ask only the Lord to lead you to the perfect place at the perfect time, it will be done. If things don't work where you are sent do your best to make them liberated from evil or corruption and if the people won't listen believe you planted the seed the Lord sent you to plant and leave.
The Lord will do the rest. People can choose to be worldly but they are losing their own soul. That is why you try to mention the wrong when you see it without intimidation or threats only asking for what is yours and to be respected with dignity. Don't worry about your reputation as your Father in Heaven has a much better future in store for you and it can begin on earth.
It takes time to do this as you learned the wrong way for years. The Bible says There is a way that seems right unto man but the ends thereof is death. Your soul is more important than your popularity and you will always be provided the basic shelter, food, medical care and money you need. The reason for this is that you are putting the Creator back as the Father and you as the His image who He provides for. The longer you do this and give up knowledge of how or why things happen the more you will live with exceeding abundance more than you ever imagined as it states this in the Bible.
