The Lord is at hand, do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding will guard your heart and your mind in Christ Jesus.
To put off your old self, which belongs to your former manner of life and is corrupt through deceitful desires, and to be renewed in the spirit of your minds, and to put on the new self, created after the likeness of God in true righteousness and holiness. (Ephesians 4:22-24)
For freedom Christ has set us free, stand firm therefore and do not submit again to the yoke of slavery.
Lord, I give you my brother in Christ Ziur, Show him how much joy he brings to your heart. Father he has been on a long journey and not all of it of your will... but Father praise your Holy name that he is hearing your voice and knowing that in this you have given him your life. Father help him to truly release his whole past to you.. the mistakes .. the pain.. the anguish.. and help him to see that this is not a surprise to you.. and that the work of the Cross was enough for him.. that Jesus is enough for him.. that even in the most horrible destruction, even when its self inflicted.. that you are stronger than our past and you in your graciousness and mercy have separated us from it and remember it no more and have infact made it as if it never happened.. for You our Lord became this sin and have found him innocent of all sin. We thank you from the bottom of our hearts Lord that your hearts desire is to set the captives free and that you have set this child free and he is the joy that was set before you that you endured the cross.
Thank you Lord that you have set him free and that he is free indeed. that you will destroy every yoke, every evidence of this and that he will have the mind of Christ Jesus. Father have your way in Ziur, show him your life, your forgiveness and your full restorative power. Help him to not focus on the past for that is safely in your hands.. but focus completely on the future that you have promised will be filled with hope and your plans to prosper him in body mind and spirit. Open his eyes to fully and completely see your freedom Lord.. and open his hands to receive your glory and peace. Thank you Holy spirit that he is never alone.. that you walk daily.. every hour .. every minute with him.. strengthening him and encouraging him. Thank you that you will and are the lamp unto his feet and a light unto his path. Thank you lord.. praise you Lord and all honour and glory to you lord ..
In Jesus name and the fullness of your love lord.
Amen

Brother Ziur First i am so thankful for such sisters as waterlily who understands prayer comes from believing one is heard! Rather then praying one is hoped to be heard! There is a large difference. An expecting hope rather then a worldly hope!( rom 15:13)
Now brother Ziur. I know very much of metal torture brother! I served 2 tours in Vietnam and from the things I did, and seen would have made any normal person never think for a second Jesus would ever touch that person! But he did brother!! Your scripture from matt 8:2-3 is not just for that person bro, but for all of us!!
Jesus is always willing!!! And we through him are always cleansed! The question is not the cleaning to me brother,but rather how one stays clean before our Lord.( Col 3:2)Our mindset brother!! Our mindset!( rom 12:1-2) By keeping Jesus before my mind daily, and his word upon my lips,we through our Jesus can always remain at peace!( rom 8:5-6!!)
Flesh does speak brother!! many blame the devil, I think many give him way to much credit! The flesh knows each day it decays,and wishes for the mind to live according to the feeling and emotions of the flesh. Paul knew this bro! ( 1 cor 9:23-27!!) Flesh looks to rule our minds.
Jesus changes and renews our mind so that we take control of our flesh! All we have to do is be willing to discipline it! A Soldier does this in boot camp,and a soldier in Christ does this by replacing the thoughts of our flesh to the very Word of our Lord Jesus!( 2 cor 10:4!!!!!-7!
The Word of God gives us rest and cuts through our sorry flesh!!( heb 4:11-16!) Confidence is measured then by the words we not only think upon, but say as well bro! It is not the thoughts which are the sin bro,it is rather the entertainment of those thoughts which can cause us to sin!
I may see a beautiful woman on the street and admire her beauty with my eyes,but the longer I look upon her,other thoughts look to take hold,and if I entertain those thoughts, beauty can turn to lust! The destruction of such fortresses 2 cor 10:4 is talking about is the entertainment of continuing to build upon them bro.
With God's Word present in both our minds and in our hearts,our words change as well! I can admire beauty now without lusting for it.I can speak now with seasoned salt,because my flesh does not rule me any longer!( col 4:6) Jesus is looking for you to take as much time as we used to give our flesh!
He is jealous even of our very mind towards him bro! If I were a true friend of yours would I not spend a great deal of my time with you?And if I did not, how long would you consider me your friend? ( james 4:4) There comes a time in all of our lives good brother,that we must decide on what we truly believe,and why we believe it!
Do we make mistakes along the way?? LOL Of course brother!! I have made plenty of them!! But I am not looking behind brother,we look forward!! ( philp 3:12-14!!) Flesh like to look behind,and we know what happens then!!( gen 19:26) and luke 9:62!
Jesus is in the front of us bro,and we follow him! Because before we were ever flesh we are even as God himself made us!!Spirit!!( 2 cor 2:14) 1 john 4:17!!!-19! The word good brother ALWAYS!!!!! THE WORD!! ( psalm 138:2!) It is by the word of Jesus I have been made new again,and the same goes for all those who dare!!! To believe!! ( mark 5:35-36!)
For good brother we are not moving towards victory in Jesus, we are moving FROM VICTORY in Jesus!!( rom 8:35-39!!) That is the mindset of a believer bro! That is my mindset,and you can sure make it yours!! If God is for us brother!! And he is!! WHO???? can ever come against us?? ( rom 8:31!!)
The large letters are not yelling bro!! lol They are confidence which comes by the Spirit and never our sorry flesh! My prayers are with you,take your flesh as I did mine to the wood shed and keep it there till it understand who rules who! God bless you in your victory!! For by his victory you will then be able to give another through our Jesus that very same victory!! amen! in both words!!! AND!!!! deeds!! james 1:22! God sends who he knows,and he always knows who he sends bro! May this be a comfort for you, as Jesus himself always is to me!! 2 cor 1:3-7

I stand in agreement with brother brighthouse. The enemy comes to steal kill and destroy, he is a liar and in him there is no truth. He longs to steal our identities, he longs to steal and destroy the work of God in us. BUT God...... But God is enough. But God comes to give life and life to the full. In every single place that the enemy makes us weak and our flesh has stood in agreement, the Father offers life. In our weakness Gods strength is made perfect. The absolute perfection of Gods love is that He gives the most perfect love gift here. He restores our souls, He saves us, He loves us, He pours forth His living water, He never leaves us and the most amazing gift ever.. He uses it for his glory.. With the comfort that God gives us.. to call us so lovingly into the light.. to destroy the darkness.. He heals us completely and THEN......... he sends us out to the dark places to call one of his beloveds into the light... to speak the life of God that has become our TESTIMONY.. that becomes our rock solid foundation..and He calls us to love with the love he has given us.
Praise you Father that you will use ziurs testimony to heal and restore others who have gone thru so many struggles too.. bless you forever lord that you are doing a completed work of the cross in him.. and you have promised, for you are the author and the finisher of his faith.. that what you have started you WILL accomplish.
amen and amen and amen
