Spiritual Wheelchairs

--The biggest attack that Satan can launch on the Church is to remind the saints of God of their past. If he is successful in mentally attacking us about our past, we allow ourselves to be bound and shackled, which hinders us from getting into the flow of the Spirit of God.--The carnal side tells us we're worthless, forsaken, and God doesn't loves us. The carnal side causes us to think wordly and secular thoughts. --But it is the spiritual side that tells us that even though we've made mistakes, we are forgiven and therefore there is no condemnation (Micah 7:8--"Rejoice not against me, O mine enemies, when I fall, I shall arise; when I sit in darkness, the Lord shall be a light unto me.")--A wheelchair is for the crippled, paralyzed, lame; those who are unable to walk. There are many of us who have "spiritual wheelchairs" because we have crippled faith. Sometimes we are not strong enough to accept the fact that God is stronger and bigger than problem we may face.--Instead of walking by faith, sometimes we walk by facts!! Yes, you're in a battle and a tough situation that seems so hard to fight, but thru faith, if you only believe, God will pull you thru!--The best way to get up out the wheelchair and be unloosed from the shackles that attempt to bound us is to simply praise God.--In your circumstance, in your tough situation, give God praise! If the enemy keeps us in a spiritual wheelchair, our walk with God becomes paralyzed and crippled, and we become ineffective and useless.--But God lets us go through trials and tribulations to see how strong our faith is. Faith is the substance of things hoped for and the evidence of things not seen. We hope for a brighter day and we look forward to a mighty move of God, even though we may not see it right away._There is something powerful we will recieve, but we can't grasp hold of it in a spiritual wheelchair...ARISE! Walk by faith and claim your victory!
