You're a small child and something doesn't go the way you wanted. You make a judgement... (my mum/dad/whoever didn't do x, y, z so they now owe me a, b, c.) You go along and life is great, except for this one little hick-up! You find that your whatever didn't do x, y, z so now they owe you a, b, c... Sound familiar? Congratulations - you have just reaped the first harvest of your bitter root judgement! Life goes along a bit further and you reap the second, third and fourth harvests of your judgement! (Its how life works!)
Now you're old... You still hang on dearly to the cruddy old judgement. You can now no longer remember what you made it for... But eventually...
You go down the road believing that the world owes you. The world owes you money, the world owes you a nice car, the world owes you a good looking boy friend or girl friend...
NEWS FLASH!! The world rarely pays its debts! And when it does - its usually to the wrong person!
You're now very unhappily living out your judgement! You're also the owner of a very unhappy judgement/harvest cycle!
Welcome to the unhappy life! Your job sucks, your wife hates you (do you think), your shoes stink because the dog used them as his toilet this morning, your mortgage is huge, your struggling to breathe... The world still owes you!
What are you going to do about it?
You believe that Jesus died for your sins (and health) and rose again on the third day. You believe that Jesus is the one and only Son of the living God... Yet, for some reason you still believe that the world owes you!
Here's a dose of perspective. Jesus died because of your sin! Jesus died because of your I'll health!
Here's some more perspective. You owed a debt you could not pay to the living God. Jesus paid it on your behalf!
The world - its poor! It can't pay your debt. It can't give you what you think it should!
To solve the problem, you need to come to Jesus with a repentant heart! You need to prayerfully (with someone or several someones) search back to that very first judgement. You need to forgive that person or persons involved. You need to forgive yourself. And sometimes you need to forgive God! You need to repent of making that judgement. You need to ask God to forgive you. You need to listen to the Holy Spirit and see what He says. You need to then do what He says! Finally you need to declare the power of that judgement as broken so that you will no longer harvest its fruit! You will need to have some very discerning people pray with you. And remember - they can not repent of any of this on your behalf! You need to step up! You also need to ask for an in-filling of the Holy Spirit, to help you live your new life without this particular judgement!
Congratulations for being one step closer to being free, just the way Christ intended!
May Gods blessings shower down upon you.
