Suddenly: Deliverance

Suddenly: Deliverance


Whatever has restricted, confined, limited and held you back - the foundation of it is about to be rocked! God desires to break the yoke that would confine you and hold you back from His destiny for your life. GOD HAS A SUDDENLY FOR YOUR DELIVERANCE!
Destiny is often delivered through the doorway of difficulty. Looking at David’s life, we see God’s kingdom principles at work. David had to go to Ziklag before Zion, or “the Battle before the Breakthrough.” There might be a battle in my life, but it indicates my breakthrough. Sometimes, God decides He is going to sovereignly do a thing. The God who works miracles sometimes just decides He is going to deliver you SUDDENLY! Not by might, not by power, but by His Spirit, He delivers you instantly! Not because of your fight, or because of anything you’ve done to earn it, but because God sovereignly declares that you shall be free in the name of Jesus!
We often think because we are called and committed to God, we won’t go through difficult times. The truth is quite the opposite – Jesus said in the world we would have trouble, but not to fear because He had already overcome the world. Your faith doesn’t stop “life”; it carries you through life. God has deliverance for every trouble you face!
God split the Red Sea in half so an estimated one million people could walk through on dry land to safety. God’s people were taken out of slavery and released into freedom, where they were embarking on a journey to their Promised Land, a land flowing with milk and honey. I want to tell you today that we, too, have a “Promised Land,” but we have to be free to pursue it! That’s why God has a suddenly deliverance for you!
Jesus feels our pain, our grief, our sorrows, and as our High Priest has a supernatural ability to sympathize with our weaknesses (Hebrews 4:15). He truly understands the things that hurt us, and is capable of empathizing completely with our conditions and our past wounding. Many of us have been through disaster, life-shattering episodes that changed everything. But God doesn’t want us to hurt, He wants to deliver us completely!
And at midnight Paul and Silas prayed, and sang praises unto God:
and the prisoners heard them.
And suddenly there was a great earthquake,
so that the foundations of the prison were shaken:
and immediately all the doors were opened,
and every one's bands were loosed.
And the keeper of the prison awaking out of his sleep,
and seeing the prison doors open, he drew out his sword,
and would have killed himself, supposing that the prisoners had been fled.
But Paul cried with a loud voice, saying, Do thyself no harm: for we are all here.
Then he called for a light, and sprang in, and came trembling,
and fell down before Paul and Silas,
And brought them out, and said, Sirs, what must I do to be saved?
And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ,
and thou shalt be saved, and thy house.
And they spake unto him the word of the Lord,
and to all that were in his house.

Acts 16:25-32
If there is anything that is keeping you anchored to cares of the world, or keeping you from God’s best, I want you to do this right now. I want to share with you 5 steps to approaching God for deliverance:
  1. Acknowledge and renounce.
Acknowledge what is really going on to God. Speak truth to God and ourselves. Renounce anything that has had control over you.
  1. Forgive.
Overcome bitterness and gain freedom by releasing others from their sins. Forgiveness is for you, not them!
  1. Submit.
Submit to God and His way of doing things.
Every good and perfect gift is from Him!
  1. Take responsibility.
Take responsibility of your own actions to gain full freedom.
Never give anyone or anything the credit for what you do, except God!
  1. Disown.
Disown sinful influences that come from associations.
Jesus tells us in Matthew 5:30, “If your right arm causes you to sin, cut it off and cast it far from you!”
The definition of “restoration” is the act or process of returning something to its original condition by repairing it and/or cleaning it. Restoration is the act of bringing back something that existed before as well as the act of returning something that was stolen or taken. This is everything that God wants to do for you! God has FREEDOM in a PROMISED LAND for you! God sees you not from your current condition, but from your future state!   God is the same yesterday, today and forever - it is always God’s desire to see His people set free, so they can move into destiny!  In this season, God has a suddenly deliverance for you!
